AI Query-Based Image Finder

AI Query Based Image Finder

An AI-powered image discovery tool that finds authentic, diverse images using multi-perspective search technology. Built with Advanced Gemini and powered by Google Custom Search, this Actor helps content creators, marketers, and designers find perfect images fast.

Why This Matters

We’re past the stage where LLMs are just answering questions with text. The future of AI is multimodal—text, vision, reasoning, and web access need to work seamlessly together.

But here’s the catch: While models like Gemini, OpenAI, and Midjourney can generate AI images, they can’t retrieve real ones from the web. And that’s a serious gap—especially when your work depends on authentic, real-world visuals.

That’s the exact problem I set out to solve.

With this tool, you can now:

Enhance LLM outputs with real, web-sourced images

Feed them back into the LLM for richer, more grounded responses

Stay in the flow—no more switching tabs for reference

✅ No hallucinated visuals ✅ No extra Google searches ✅ Just real web images, directly integrated into the LLM workflow Check out how I built this with LangChain + Gemini + Apify: 👉 https://lnkd.in/gaMNKQ7G

How it works

The Actor uses Perplexity-style query decomposition to analyze your search request and automatically generates 4 different search perspectives:

1. Enhanced Original - Clearer, optimized version of your query
2. Technical/Specific - Detailed technical aspects or specifications
3. Visual/Contextual - Real-world applications and visual representations
4. Comparative/Alternative - Related concepts and variations Each perspective searches Google Images independently, then results are combined, deduplicated, and ranked by relevance to give you comprehensive visual coverage that manual searching can't match.

Use Cases & Applications

The AI Query Based Image Finder is designed to help users efficiently locate real, authentic images (not AI-generated) from across the web using natural language queries.

Content Creation & Marketing

Marketers, bloggers, and social media managers can quickly find authentic visual assets to enhance their campaigns, articles, presentations, or posts.

News & Journalism

Journalists can quickly find images related to breaking news or specific topics they're covering, helping illustrate stories with real-world visuals

Creative Inspiration

Designers, artists, and creative professionals can find visual inspiration by searching for abstract concepts, artistic styles, or specific subjects spaces.

Complex & Multilingual Queries

The AI excels at interpreting complex, nuanced queries in any language, making it valuable for international content creators and researchers.Example: "阿里反手甩出Qwen2.5-Omni-3B，让普通电脑直接变身多模态AI工作站" → Successfully finds relevant AI technology imagery despite complex Chinese terminology.
