Desktop Stacks, reimagined. Instant folder popovers for a cleaner, faster Mac experience.
A Mac utility to remap Caps Lock to the mute shortcut for Zoom, Teams, and Tandem. Because CapsLock is a large key and at your finger tips, it's much faster than clicking a button or pressing a combination of keys. It truly makes muting/unmuting muscle memory.

It analyzes file content locally (no uploads) to generate clean, descriptive names, then auto-sorts files into folders by category using presets. Comes with 2 presets out of the box, but the real power is custom presets with your own categories. Supports batch processing, multilingual output, custom prompts (instructions), and optional cloud/local LLMs (Ollama, LM Studio).
A simple Finder extension that lets you create folders with personality. No more generic blue folders, just right-click and pick your icon. Organize your Mac the way it should look. Yours. …it's that easy.
Most Mac cleaners work like a black box—you click "clean" and hope for the best. This one shows you exactly what it finds: file paths, sizes, and categories. You pick what goes, and everything moves to Trash. Terminal-based, open source.

Hey everyone! I built Tidey because my desktop was always a disaster. Screenshots, random downloads, files I saved "just for now" 3 months ago... you know how it goes. So I made this simple menubar app. It shows you files that have been sitting on your Desktop or Downloads folder for a while, and you just pick: delete it or keep it. Thats it. No fancy features, no AI, no subscription. Just a quick way to go through your files and finally clean things up. Would love to hear what you think!
Text copied from AI tools or the web often pastes with fonts and headings you'd never use yourself, especially in email or chat. It immediately looks pasted. Paste text-only fixes the mess, but also removes bold text, lists, and structure, forcing you to rebuild everything by hand. Purifai cleans the text so it fits naturally in the app you're pasting into. It removes weird formatting while keeping paragraphs, lists, and spacing intact. Lightweight App (11MB). Fully offline. No tracking.
A Mac disk cleaner app that finally fixes the "System Data" problem. Find the cache, junks and logs eating your space and delete them with 1 click.
