About

Agent Ransack is a file and information search tool for hard drives, developed in the United Kingdom. It excels at quickly finding files and displaying the text content found within them, allowing users to browse results without opening each file. Its product portfolio includes core file search capabilities, a context menu extension, and Outlook search, notably offering the option to search by 'Date Created' in addition to 'Date Modified'. A key differentiator is its 'live search' mechanism, which operates without indexing, ensuring 100% real-time results, though some users report it can be slow compared to indexed alternatives. This approach positions it as a strong competitor to standard Windows search and other tools like Anytxt, Everything, and FileSearchy. The software is available as a Freemium, Proprietary product exclusively for Windows platforms. Details on its founding history, leadership, revenue/financials, and employee count are not provided in the available data.
