The missing search for your Mac.
Your computer is full of things you can't quite find — the app you installed last month, the file you need for taxes, the deck from before the offsite. Floodlight lets you ask for them the way you'd ask a person, and just opens them.

- “Open that program I downloaded last week for gardening.”
- “Do I have any files I need to send to my accountant for my taxes this year?”
- “Find the deck I was editing the night before the offsite.”
- “Where did I save the photos from the trip with my brother?”
No exact names. No keywords. No remembering which folder. You describe it; it opens.
A local agent that watches and syncs
A small agent runs on your computer. It sees what you download, install, edit, and save — and keeps a private, secure index in sync as your machine changes. Your files stay yours; only the understanding leaves.
Miriel does the understanding
That index is retrieved through the Miriel context engine — the same retrieval layer behind our products. It turns "the gardening program from last week" into the actual app, and "files for my taxes" into the actual files.
You just ask
No folders to remember, no exact filenames, no keywords. You describe the thing the way you’d describe it to a person, and it opens. Ask Nora out loud, or type it — either way it just works.
An agent on your computer keeps things in sync; Miriel does the retrieval on the backend. The voice you talk to is Nora — and if you want the architecture, she's written up in detail.
