Could you build this?

Partial While mobile photo sync apps are standard, building private local-first NAS synchronization alongside efficient on-device vector search, duplicate detection, and face clustering is complex.

What it would actually take: The system requires a lightweight backend server (Go/Rust/C++) deployable on Docker/NAS alongside native iOS/Android clients using background sync APIs. The hard part is running embedded machine learning models (CoreML/TFLite for face embedding, ONNX for CLIP image search) with local vector indexing (e.g., SQLite-vec) while handling multi-gigabyte local peer-to-peer file transfers efficiently.
