Help Us Fix Mac Search: Introducing the Fenn Affiliate Program

Spotlight search on Mac isn’t cutting it anymore. If you’ve ever sat at your Mac thinking “I know I saw that somewhere…” and then wasted twenty minutes clicking through folders or skimming 50-page PDFs, you know the pain.

We built Fenn to fix that.

Fenn is a local file search engine for macOS that doesn’t just find filenames, it finds moments. It searches inside videos, scans images for text, indexes audio transcripts, and digs through long documents to find what you actually meant, not just what you typed. And it does all this 100% locally, with no cloud and no privacy trade-offs.

Since launching, we’ve been blown away by the response. Over 80% of people who install Fenn still use it a month later. That’s proof that real search on Mac has been broken for too long.

But here’s the problem:
Most Mac users still don’t know Fenn exists. 😅

That’s where you come in.

We’re opening up the Fenn Affiliate Program to help more people discover a better way to search their Mac and to reward the creators, writers, and power users who help us spread the word.

There are over 90 million Macs with Apple Silicon chips out there. The opportunity to help people upgrade their productivity is massive.

Why This Matters

We didn’t build Fenn to chase hype. We built it because Mac search is broken and we wanted to fix it.

Most Mac users still don’t know they can search inside their screenshots, jump to the moment in a Zoom recording, or scan a PDF for a concept they don’t remember the exact words for.

That’s what Fenn is here to change.

And if you’re someone who believes in better tools, smarter search, and privacy-first AI, you’re exactly who we want on board.

Final Thought

You probably know someone who’s frustrated with Spotlight. Maybe it’s a designer hunting for a reference file. A founder searching for a pitch slide. A developer trying to remember which PDF had that clause they skimmed last week.

If you can help them discover Fenn, you’re earning commission AND you’re giving them back hours of their life.

That’s the kind of affiliate program we want to run.
Useful. Transparent. And built on something real.
