OCDify is a privacy-first, offline AI file organizer for Mac. Automatically organize your Desktop and Downloads folder into custom categories, and Smart Rename, which turns cryptic names like IMG_1234 or scan_002 into something you can actually read with no cloud and no subscriptions. Free 30-day trial.
I first put OCDify out last year to fix my own Downloads folder. I've spent the months since rebuilding it, and this is the version I actually wanted to ship.
The core is the same: point it at a folder, name your categories, and it analyses the files automatically and puts each of them to the defined categories. What's new this time:
Smart Rename takes files named IMG_1234, scan_002, or invoice_final_FINAL and gives them names you can read at a glance. It's optional and runs on-device. It sorts more formats now, including Markdown, RTF, PowerPoint, and EPUB. An "Uncategorized" folder catches anything the AI isn't sure about, so nothing gets misfiled or buried. Toggles to keep images and videos in their own folders. The on-device model got more accurate. The part I care about most hasn't changed: it all happens on your Mac. No cloud, no account, nothing uploaded. A lot of what's on my machine is private, and I didn't want the tool that reads my files to be the thing that leaks them.
It's on the Mac App Store, with a 30-day free trial version can be downloaded from the website(no card): https://apps.apple.com/app/id676...
I'd love feedback, especially on Smart Rename and where the categorization gets things wrong. I'll be around all day.
Finally tried OCDify and the local-only approach is a big plus for me. Set up a couple of rules for screenshots and downloads and it just quietly sorted everything in the background without me babysitting it.
Congrats on the launch, sounds genuinely useful for anyone drowning in messy folders. One idea if you're open to it: add a quick "undo" option right in the menu bar after each auto-organization pass, so if a rule misfires or someone wants to tweak their folder structure, they can roll back the last batch without digging through Time Machine. Would make experimenting with custom rules way less scary.
Finally gave it a spin on my Downloads folder and it quietly sorted everything into sensible folders without me touching anything. The local-only angle is what sold me on trying it.
