The Problem Every Media Professional Faces
You’re on deadline. Your editor needs that 2019 press release from a major tech company—the one about their now-defunct VR project. You *know* it’s in your archive, but:
- 5,000+ files across nested folders
- Mixed formats (PDF press kits, Word interview transcripts, Excel media lists)
- Legacy .doc files from PR agencies
Industry data shows journalists waste **19 hours/month** retrieving buried files (2024 Reuters Institute Report). Ctrl+F fails because:
✖ Doesn’t search inside PDFs/Excel
✖ Misses .doc files with formatting issues
✖ Requires exact case-sensitive phrasing
WordsDigger changes this.
