Search and duplicates

Because Liccium knows the content fingerprint of every file in your library, it can find files by what they contain, not only by their names.

Search

Press Cmd + F anywhere in the app to open the search. You can search by title, creator, description, full text, ISCC or declaration ID.

Advanced search adds filters for:

• media type;

• rights status;

• TDMrep preference;

• FAIA flag;

• C2PA signature;

• declared or not yet declared;

• date range;

• folder;

• your own labels.

Labels

Labels let you group files across folders – for example by client, project or publication. You can filter search results by label and see all files with a label on one page.

Finding copies and similar content

Liccium compares ISCC codes to find files that share their content, even when file names, formats, sizes or resolutions differ. Right-click a file and choose to find matches, or open the duplicates view for your whole library.

Results are grouped by how closely they match:

Level	Meaning
Exact copy	The files are identical
Same content	The same content in a different file – for example another format or resolution
High similarity	At least 86 % similar – for example a crop or light edit
Moderate similarity	At least 78 % similar
Broad match	At least 69 % similar – may include unrelated content, so check the results

Searching with text

You can paste a passage of text and find documents in your library that contain the same or similar text.

Semantic matching

Optional semantic matching finds content with a similar meaning, not only similar form – for example two texts expressing the same ideas in different words. It is switched off by default and can be activated in Settings → System. The model runs on your computer; no content is uploaded.

Comparing two files

You can compare two files side by side to see how similar they are, and which ISCC units match.
