Sound familiar?

You know it is in there somewhere

Spotlight wants the name right, and searching for a folder does not show you what is inside it. So you open folders one by one.

You cannot tell how many copies there are

"final", "final2", "actually-final". Different names, so Finder calls them different files. The disk keeps filling up.

You started tidying and stopped

Deleting means deciding what matters. Moving means trusting you can undo it. So it stays where it is.

From finding duplicates to tidying up

AI Finder is a file manager for macOS 12 or later. You open and move files as in Finder, and it finds duplicate files by content and large files untouched for over a year, then shows a plan before anything moves.

Finds duplicates by content

Same file, different name — it still groups them. It suggests which copy to keep and why, and only the ones you pick go to the Trash. One click puts them back.

Shows what tidying would free

How much space duplicates and old files take, broken down. You see the list before anything runs, and choose only what you want.

Previews, exactly like Finder

Gallery, column, icon and list views, all four. PDFs and images preview their real contents, and the space bar opens Quick Look.

Suggests names and folders

It proposes a consistent naming scheme and folders to group files into. You see every rename before it happens, and can undo it after.

Conversion, text recognition, tags and more

The things a file manager needs.

Tabs and favourites

Keep several folders open in tabs. Pin the ones you use most to the sidebar.

Tags

Reads and writes Finder colour tags as they are — a tag set here shows up in Finder too, and you can filter by colour.

Read text

Pulls text out of images and PDFs, using only what is built into macOS.

Convert formats

Images to PNG, JPEG, TIFF, HEIC, GIF, BMP or PDF, plus camera RAW; documents to TXT, RTF, HTML or PDF; Pages, Keynote and Numbers out to PDF. It writes a copy and leaves the original untouched.

Compress, extract and batch rename

Zip files together, and extract archives by right-click, double-click or a shortcut. Rename a whole set by a rule, and crop images to a ratio.

Find and tidy by asking

Twelve providers, from Claude, GPT and Gemini to local Ollama and LM Studio. IDs, card and phone numbers are masked before anything is sent. Reading inside a file stays off until you turn it on.

Safeguards: nothing is deleted outright

What an app that touches your files owes you.

Nothing is deleted

Everything tidied goes to the Trash. Nothing is removed outright.

One click undoes it

A tidy-up is undone in one go.

Contents go only when asked

Reading inside files is off by default. With it on, only what the question needs is read, and details like ID and phone numbers are masked.

Frequently asked questions

What is AI Finder?

AI Finder is a file manager for macOS. You open and move files the way you do in Finder, and it finds duplicate files by content, large files you have not used in a long time, and messy file names, then shows a plan to tidy them. It is made by SPECIAI and runs on macOS 12 or later.

Does it find duplicates with different names?

Yes. It compares content, not names. Only files of the same size are hashed, and files over 8 MB are first compared by their first and last 64 KB, so the whole disk is never read. For each group it suggests which copy to keep and why.

Can I undo a mistake?

Nothing is deleted outright. Everything removed goes to the macOS Trash, and renames and moves can be undone from History, one by one or all at once.

Which folders does it touch?

Only the folders you choose in Settings. ~/Library, ~/.ssh and other system or security folders, source code and anything inside .git are never touched. It always shows the list first and changes only what you tick.

How much does it cost?

Browsing and tidying files stay free. Every feature, AI chat included, is free for 14 days after you install; after that AI chat needs a $4.99 licence for one year. It does not renew automatically.

Are my file contents sent anywhere?

With AI chat, file names and folder paths go to the AI provider you choose. Reading inside files is off by default, and ID, phone, card and account numbers and email addresses are masked before anything is sent. With a local model such as Ollama or LM Studio, nothing leaves your Mac.

Can it convert HWP files to PDF on a Mac?

Yes. Right-click a file to turn it into a PDF; the original stays and a copy is made. Images convert to PNG, JPEG, HEIC or PDF, and video can be turned into an MP3 of its audio.

Which AI providers can I use?

Twelve: Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Mistral, Together, xAI, any OpenAI-compatible API, Ollama and LM Studio.
