I built Smart Meme Search to solve a small but very real personal problem.
Over the years I saved thousands of memes from X and Telegram. I often remembered what a meme meant or the situation it fit, but not any visible text or filename — so finding the right meme at the right moment was almost impossible.
This app indexes your local meme collection using:
CLIP for semantic image understanding
OCR for embedded text
a local ONNX-based inference pipeline (CPU-only)
You can search memes by intent or meaning (e.g. “awkward silence”, “overconfident but wrong”) and get relevant results instantly.
Everything runs locally; no images are uploaded anywhere.
I learned a lot building this, especially around native dependencies, model packaging, and deployment on Windows. Happy to answer technical questions or hear feedback.
