TextSeek
TextSeek is a professional full-text desktop search tool for macOS that indexes and searches across multiple document formats including PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and RTF files.

AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not confirm whether TextSeek has a native Apple Silicon build. The search results are limited and do not mention architecture support either way. Given that you are now in May 2026 — about 27 months away from when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028) — we recommend contacting the developer directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is planned or already available. If the vendor is actively maintaining the app, they may have already released a native build but not advertised it widely. If they have no plans for a native version and development has stalled, you will want to know that sooner rather than later so you can evaluate alternatives like Spotlight search, the Files app's search functionality, or other actively maintained full-text search tools that run natively on Apple Silicon.
