Smart Disk
Folders that fill themselves. Your files stay put.
Type "invoices 2026 over 100 euro" and get a folder with exactly those files. Smart Disk reads your PDFs and scans on your Mac and fills folders with links to the originals, so nothing moves. No account, no cloud, open source.
I'm Jitse, and I built Smart Disk because my files are scattered all over my Mac. Every time I needed something, I had to dig through Downloads, Desktop and a dozen other folders. Smart Disk fixes that.
The idea is simple: instead of sorting files into folders, you describe the folder and it fills itself.
• "invoices 2026 over 100 euro"
• "contracts with a notice period"
• "screenshots"
Smart Disk reads your files with PDFKit and Apple Vision OCR, so scans and screenshots work too. Dates and amounts are actually parsed, so "over 100 euro" is a real filter. Every smart folder is just links to your originals, which means nothing gets moved, and one file can live in several folders at once. It works in Finder and in every Open/Save dialog.
Everything runs on your Mac: no account, no telemetry, no cloud. You choose which folders it may read, and ID documents stay hidden until you turn them on.
To be upfront:
– macOS 26+ only (Apple silicon & Intel)
– not notarized yet, so macOS asks you to approve the first launch
– search is keyword-based plus a light similarity model, not a big AI model
It's free and MIT-licensed. I'd love to hear which folders you'd create first, and what's missing. I'll be here all day answering questions 🙏
