How can I classify documents by date or time period?

Classifying documents by date or time period involves identifying and grouping files based on creation dates, modification dates, or specific time references within their content. This enables chronological organization of reports, contracts, photos, or other time-sensitive materials. Common methods extract date information from file metadata, text patterns, or explicit date mentions in documents, and then apply sorting rules to categorize files accordingly.

Wisfile performs this task locally using AI recognition to analyze file content and metadata, identifying date information within your documents like PDFs or Word files. You can create customized rules to classify files based on extracted dates (e.g., creation/modification dates) or specific time periods mentioned in content. Files are automatically moved into categorized date-based folders according to your rules. All processing happens 100% privately on your device—no internet required and no data uploaded. Temporary analysis data is automatically wiped after processing for complete privacy, keeping your sensitive information secure during free usage.
