-  - Filtering by tags, correspondents, types, and more.
-  - Customizable views can be saved and displayed on the dashboard.
-- Full text search helps you find what you need.
-  - Auto completion suggests relevant words from your documents.
-  - Results are sorted by relevance to your search query.
-  - Highlighting shows you which parts of the document matched the query.
-  - Searching for similar documents ("More like this")
-- Email processing: Paperless adds documents from your email accounts.
-  - Configure multiple accounts and filters for each account.
-  - When adding documents from mail, paperless can move these mail to a new folder, mark them as read, flag them as important or delete them.
-- Machine learning powered document matching.
-  - Paperless-ngx learns from your documents and will be able to automatically assign tags, correspondents and types to documents once you've stored a few documents in paperless.
-- Optimized for multi core systems: Paperless-ngx consumes multiple documents in parallel.
-- The integrated sanity checker makes sure that your document archive is in good health.
