Clew lets you search across all your apps from one place. It’s like Spotlight search, but for your cloud. Search across multiple Google Drives accounts, close Github issues, and share files with Clew in just two clicks.

Hey folks 👋 Super pumped to share Clew with the community! We’ve been building a universal search bar that lets you search across your cloud apps from your desktop. If you’ve got multiple Google Drives, work with files in different tools, or you’re just looking for ways to speed up your workflow—give Clew a try! It’s a quick three-minute setup. We spent almost four months building up to this version that's a whole lot faster and has a bunch more features like pins, /slash commands and filters. With Clew you can: 🔸 Search across multiple Google Drives, Dropbox accounts and other services 🔸 Search and take action on GitHub issues and Figma files 🔸 Pin files that you access frequently, we'll show you when they get updated 🔸 Use /slash commands to quickly create new docs and filter search We'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions! What integrations would you like to see next?

Great UI and awesome product. Having one place for all cloud apps is super helpful.

@nkotov Thanks Nik!!

I love that I can search several Google Drive accounts at the same time, I think I use 3 and this is a total time saver! It's also faster than opening a browser tab and navigating to search elsewhere. I'm super excited to see where this project goes and will definitely be keeping this app!
Haishan Qian
@nckelder Thanks Nick! 🙏🏻 I've seen folks who have more than 5 Google Drives. I don't know how that happens...

I've been using Clew for the past few weeks and absolutely LOVE it. It's so great to have all my documents, designs, in one place. This is like the "Google" of my work and private information. The clew team is receptive to feedback and iterates quickly. Keep up the great work 👏
Haishan Qian
@ish Thanks a ton Ish, glad you like it! 🙌🏻

Have been following Clew for a while now and it's incredible to see how far it's come and how well polished it is now! The onboarding was so slick and the app has already been saving me time. Good job Udara and Haishan :)

@johnathanz Thanks a ton Johnathan!!

Sometimes you stumble across a product that makes you go “Wait, how have I been living without this?”. Clew is definitely one of these products. I have files scattered across Google Drive, Dropbox, and Github. Before I started using Clew, it would take me a very long time to find what I was looking for. Now, file searching is instantaneous, and as a huge bonus, I also get to see a beautiful UI every time I go file hunting!

@amy_li1 Thanks Amy!

I’ve been using Clew for a little while now and I can definitely say that it has made file searching so much easier! Such a useful product. I’d love to see more keyboard shortcuts for easier navigation in the future 😊

Is this a native Mac app?
Haishan Qian
@haris_sulaiman No it isn't haha but the features feel familiar to spotlight search and airdrop. :)
Nick Elder
@haris_sulaiman It does run very cleanly on desktop!
Haris sulaiman
@haishan_qian Thank you for the reply. I really like the concept. But I don't like to have have an electron app replace spotlight or Alfred.
Haishan Qian
@haris_sulaiman Totally understand! Thanks for checking us out nonetheless :)

This product just keeps getting better. Loving the UX / UI improvements in this release. Great work, Udra!

@levinunnink Thanks man! <3
Harrison Apitz-Grossman
This works super well on our OSX devices - has definitely saved us hours of time. Simple and great UI. Would be helpful if it was also compatible for PC users, any plans for a PC version?
Haishan Qian
@harrison_apitz_grossman We really changed up the design in part because we plan on rolling out a mobile version as well as a PC version. Soon!!!
Serene Chen
Incredible evolution of the product since I first started using it! I have a ton of nested Gdrive folders across different accounts so Clew saves me a lot of time. Not to mentio being able to spin up a new doc with a quick shortcut is just ugh, love.
Haishan Qian
@serenekxc Glad you're loving the keyboard shortcuts - more to come! :)
John Mendoza
Great job with this product!
Haishan Qian
@iblibs Thanks John!!!
