Review duplicates safely
Find exact and visual duplicates, compare candidates, and keep control of every permanent deletion.
Updated:
Try this workflow
Open duplicates for one folder. Sort by highest or lowest similarity, or browse randomly. Compare filenames and previews before keeping, marking distinct or removing selected files. In MCP, preview a deletion plan and approve its exact items before applying it.
What to expect
Similarity is not permission to delete. A set's score is its lowest pairwise similarity. Updated desktops keep removed files in recovery for 30 days before permanent cleanup; disk space is not reclaimed immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can an agent delete my files?
Local folders: Yes, but an agent must first preview the exact files and get your approval before applying the deletion plan. Updated desktop builds keep removed files in recovery for 30 days before permanent cleanup; this does not immediately free disk space. Remote changes wait for the owning app to complete them. OneDrive: Small thumbnails are cached; desktop videos download to a playback cache. Offline access is limited to cached media. Approved deletions use OneDrive’s recycle bin, not OwAI’s 30-day recovery. Removing a source never deletes its OneDrive files.
Is OwAI free?
Yes. Local browsing, organization, local AI models, people, collections, groups, and duplicate management are free and do not require an account.
