About:
HistoryHound is a powerful search utility for macOS that aggregates and indexes browsing history and bookmarks from all major web browsers. It enables users to perform lightning-fast keyword searches across years of accumulated web activity, surfacing relevant pages instantly. This tool solves the problem of lost context by making past discoveries and references easily accessible again.
Key Features:
  • Unified search across multiple browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox, etc.)
  • Instantaneous indexing and real-time search results
  • Advanced filtering by domain, date, and browser
  • Preview content and metadata without reopening pages
Use Cases:
  • Finding a technical article or documentation page you remember reading weeks ago
  • Relocating a critical web form or checkout page from an online purchase
  • Researching a topic by quickly reviewing all previously visited relevant sites
Alternatives:
  • Spotlight – Built-in but less powerful for deep browser history content and metadata
  • Browser-native history – Limited to single browser, lacks unified search and advanced filtering
