Chrome Extension · Filex AI

Your Downloads folder is a mess. This fixes it automatically.

Files pile up with names like “IMG_4821.png” or “document(3)_final_FINAL.pdf” until finding anything feels impossible. Filex AI captures screenshots and organizes downloads right inside Chrome — smart names, smart folders, and instant sync to your phone and web.

How it works

Capture it once. Never file it again.

Install, sign in, and let it run in the background from then on.

01

Install the extension

Add Filex AI to Chrome from the Web Store in a few seconds. No setup, no configuration screens to get through first.

02

Sign in free

Sign in or create a free Filex AI account. Everything you capture syncs to the same library you already use on iPhone, Android, or web.

03

Capture or download anything

Screenshot a page, or download a file like you always do. Filex AI reads it in the background — no extra click, nothing to rename yourself.

04

Find it later by describing it

Weeks later, search "that invoice from the hosting company" or "the pricing screenshot from that SaaS site." It is already named, filed, and indexed.

Core features

Everything your Downloads folder needed from the start

Filex AI brings AI-powered organization directly into your browser.

📸

Instant screenshot capture

Capture full pages, visible areas, or custom selections from any webpage. Every capture saves straight into your organized Filex AI library — not a random Downloads folder.

📂

Automatic download sorting

New downloads don't just land in a folder. Filex AI reads their content and context to sort them intelligently — an invoice, a resume, a research paper, a product image all end up exactly where they belong.

🧠

AI-powered smart naming

No more vague filenames. Filex AI analyzes each file's actual content and generates a clear, descriptive name automatically, replacing things like "IMG_4821.png" or "document(3)_final_FINAL.pdf".

🗂️

Smart folders & auto-tagging

Files are grouped and tagged based on their content, giving you a fully structured library without lifting a finger. Tags make it easy to filter, browse, and rediscover old files in seconds.

🔎

Full-content search

Search inside your screenshots and documents, not just filenames. Filex AI indexes the text within images and files, so you can find that one screenshot of an invoice just by typing a keyword from it.

🧩

Entity recognition

Filex AI automatically detects people, companies, locations, and other key entities mentioned in your files, linking related content together for smarter organization.

🔄

Cross-device sync

Everything captured in Chrome instantly syncs with your Filex AI account across iOS, Android, and the web. Capture on your laptop, find it on your phone minutes later.

☁️

Secure cloud storage

Your files are stored securely and privately, backed up automatically, and accessible anytime — no local storage limits, no lost downloads.

🏷️

Entity extraction

Names, amounts, dates, and other structured details are pulled directly out of captured content, turning a pile of screenshots into searchable, filterable data.

Smart naming & tagging

From “IMG_4821.png” to actually findable

Every screenshot and download is read by AI the moment it lands. It gets a clear name built from its content, a category that fits, and tags that make it easy to browse or filter later — automatically.

  • A pricing page screenshot becomes "Pricing_Comparison_Notion_vs_Filex.png"
  • An invoice download becomes "Invoice_Hosting_Company_March_2026.pdf"
  • Related files are tagged and linked, so browsing one surfaces the rest

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about using Filex AI

What does the Filex AI Chrome extension actually do?

It captures screenshots and organizes your downloads automatically. Every screenshot you take and every file you download is instantly analyzed, intelligently renamed, and placed into the right folder in your Filex AI library — no manual sorting, no repetitive renaming.

Does it work with all file types?

Yes. Images, PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, and more are all automatically detected, named, and sorted, whether they arrive as a screenshot capture or a regular browser download.

Is my data secure?

Yes. Files are stored securely in the cloud with privacy-first handling, encrypted in transit and at rest, and you stay in control of what gets captured.

Do I need a Filex AI account to use the extension?

Yes, a free account is required to sync and store your organized files across devices. Signing up takes seconds and no credit card is required.

How is this different from Chrome's built-in screenshot and download tools?

Chrome can capture a screenshot or save a download, but it stops there — you still have to rename and file everything yourself. Filex AI reads the content of what you captured, gives it a clear name, files it automatically, and makes it searchable by what it actually contains, not just its filename.

Can I search inside my screenshots, not just by filename?

Yes. Filex AI indexes the text and content inside every screenshot and document, so you can find something by typing a keyword from inside the image or file, not just a filename you have to remember.

Does it sync with the Filex AI mobile app?

Yes. Everything captured in Chrome syncs instantly with your Filex AI account across iOS, Android, and the web, so a screenshot taken on your laptop is searchable from your phone minutes later.

Is the Chrome extension free?

Yes. Install it free from the Chrome Web Store and every account starts on the free Spark plan with no credit card required.
