Cool. I'm thinking of wedding photographers who take several hundred photos in a single evening and rarely know the people in the photos personally. Since not all the photos of everyone turn out well, this helps them pick out the best ones while still making sure all the guests are included.
Well, thats one of the use cases. Groups photos, surfaces memories, and does a lot more.
Its built for personal use more so- floats automatic album suggestions, floats memories from photos - "On this day x years ago", shows all photos as a pinpoints in a map, and the best feature - Semantic search.
You can search with whats in the image- beach, ocean, sea - all of them yield same results. So even with a vague memory, you can get to the photos that actually matter. Say- a photo of grandma back in 2018 at a wedding... and so on. Search combines people, places, objects & time. You can say "Me and Mom, 2015 at the beach" & we find the right photo for you.
You point Smriti to a harddrive containing all your photos, and get this out of the box. No uploads, no signup etc.

So I built Smriti, its a fully offline rust based photoviewer, that lets your browse your memories, all without a single photo leaving the device. People recognition, semantic search, Album suggestions, Memories are all the features baked into the application, so adding your photos gives a better than google photos application.
Show can try it from the link given. Its built in Rust Tauri- so compatible for Linux, Mac & Windows. Check out the demo site first to see what Smriti offers.
And the best part is, once youre done browsing, take out the drive, and all your memories travel with you. Plug it into another pc to get the exact same experience.
