I was just trying to solve a problem that was slowing down my own research.   


I was doing a masters in philosophy of arts, and I was preparing a thesis on religious art. That led me deep into philosophy of religion, which meant hours of YouTube interviews, podcasts, articles, and long texts. 

At some point I realized something frustrating. I was not lacking good material. I was drowning in it. It felt like I had access to knowledge, but no way to navigate it properly. 

So I built something for myself. 

ConceptSeek lets you build your own library of sources. Videos, texts, anything you are working with. Over time it becomes a kind of personal knowledge base. 

But the key part is what you can do with it. Instead of searching by keywords, you search by concept. You can look for an idea, an argument, a theme, and it will surface the exact moments across your sources where that idea appears. You can jump straight into those moments in context. 



It is not just an AI that gives you answers. It is a mix of deterministic methods and AI. The system first narrows things down in a structured way, then AI helps rerank the most relevant results. For each result you get a short overview and a one sentence synthesis, just enough to understand what is going on before you dive in. The thinking part is still yours. The tool is just helping you get to the right material faster. 



For me, this changed everything. I can actually work with large amounts of content way more efficiently. I can see this being useful for students, researchers, lawyers, policy people, debate prep, or anyone who works seriously with information and ideas. 



You can test it for free by the way. 



Would love to hear your thoughts, especially if you deal with this kind of problem too.

Built this for my thesis research, now you can try it
