Hi All,

A friend of mine, has a huge set (around 5000) of documents he wants to search through. There is already a chrome extension he uses, that allows basic browsing through documents by directory and date/time.
This extension also allows the files to be sorted by tags (using a file metadata field, standard in Google drive). But for now, we haven't found a way to tag every document. Doing this manually would take too long.

My question is:
Do you know a (preferably JavaScript) solution that reads documents in Google drive and tags (multiple tags per document) this document based on the documents contents?
Preferably these tags would be added to the file metadata field automatically, but if this is done in a separate step this is OK as well.

Main issue is to 'understand' what the document is about and to create tags based on the most meaningful words in the document.

So do you know a JavaScript solution that reads Google drive documents and tags them based on the documents contents? Any suggestion will help.

What I have tried:

I've used the search option in Google drive, but this is of limited use. Because it requires knowledge about what you are searching for. Tags more or less guide you through the contents available.

I've looked for Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools, in Google, but few of them work with Google drive, or require a different language (like Python). Which is an issue because all my friend has is a Chrome Notebook. So a web based or chrome extension solutions would work best.
