Hi, I have about 1800 journal articles archived and I'm looking for an easy way to query them. All have full text (no weird OCR limitations), but they're in different languages with a lot of transliteration (and often inconsistently so), so I'm thinking that a simple keyword search is probably not sufficient.

I use paperless-ngx to index documents, and I looked at adding paperless-ai to it, but when I tried with my current archives, I was very underwhelmed (and frustrated; it tagged a lot of my stuff with nonsense and the Reset option, which I understood from the documentation would remove the changes it made, didn't, so I'm a bit bitter about having to manually undo a lot). But in any case, the way it organizes by correspondent and type is probably not really what I want.

Any suggestions for something that might be more suited for this type of indexing?
