Hoolo
Keep your Mac workspace quiet, clean, and reversible.
Hoolo brings safe, rule-based file organization to macOS without turning cleanup into a black box. Preview every change with Dry Run, then undo applied actions from snapshots. It combines live folder monitoring, editable automation rules, duplicate review, Trash policies, and app leftover cleanup in one native, privacy-first workspace.
I built Hoolo because file organization tends to fail in two opposite ways: it is either completely manual, or it is automated enough to feel risky.
The goal was to make automation inspectable. Every rule starts as a Dry Run, shows the exact files and destinations it affects, and creates an undo snapshot when applied. That made it possible to support ongoing folder monitoring, duplicate review, Trash policies, and app leftover cleanup without asking users to trust a black box.
Hoolo is still evolving, and I would especially love feedback on the rule builder, Dry Run review flow, and the kinds of repetitive file cleanup you wish your Mac handled better.
The dry run plus snapshot rollback combo is exactly what I needed before letting any cleanup tool loose on my work folders. Finally feels safe to automate on macOS.
The dry run preview actually showed me exactly what would move, which is more than I can say for most cleanup tools I've poked at. Snapshots giving me a real undo button is the detail that sold it.
the dry run preview is genuinely useful, saw exactly which files would've moved before committing. feels way more transparent than the usual macos cleaners.
The Dry Run preview is a lifesaver, finally I can see exactly what will move before it moves. The snapshot rollback gave me the confidence to actually let it run on my messy Downloads folder.
Curious how the rules work under the hood, are they simple pattern matches or can I chain conditions together? Also wondering what happens if I edit a rule while files are already being monitored.
How does the Dry Run mode handle conflicts when you have overlapping rules that would touch the same file in different ways?
Would love to see a schedule option for Dry Runs, like run them weekly and email me a diff report. That way I can review proposed cleanups without launching the app first and catching issues before they become snapshots I have to undo.
The snapshot undo for cleanup actions is such a thoughtful detail, takes the anxiety out of letting an app move files around. Really respect how transparent it makes the whole process feel.
