Find anything you’ve seen, said or saved
Type what you remember: a word on a sign, a line from a meeting, a moment in a video. Memup finds it in your documents, photos, screenshots, recordings and videos, all on this Mac.
Add your files once. Find them whenever you need them.
Memup reads what’s in your documents, photos, recordings and videos, then keeps it in an encrypted library on this Mac.
Made for people whose work lives in their files
If you keep years of documents, recordings and photos that you can’t or won’t upload, Memup was built for you.
Everything you keep, in one place you can search
Add files or folders and Memup reads them all. The originals stay where they are, or Memup keeps an encrypted copy.
Type it the way you remember it
