RenameClick

RenameClick is a desktop application for macOS and Windows that renames and organizes files by what's actually inside them. Point it at a messy folder, and it scans images, documents, and audio files, then suggests clear filenames based on the content it reads. For example, a cryptic name like "8a095-4d0f6a90008b.pdf" becomes "Blood_Test_Results.pdf". You review each suggested name and category folder before applying anything. After a one-time model download, the local AI works fully offline.

The tool gives you three workflows: rename only (keep files in their current folder but with better names), categorize only (move files into folders without changing filenames), or rename and categorize together. RenameClick supports a wide range of formats including JPEG, PNG, GIF, WEBP, PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD, CSV, MP3, WAV, FLAC, and many more. Audio files are transcribed locally on your device. The default local model is intentionally small, so it handles common renaming tasks well. If you need more power for specialized workflows, you can connect your own API keys for OpenAI, Google Gemini, Alibaba Cloud, or run local models through LM Studio or Ollama.

RenameClick is best for anyone who regularly deals with messy file folders — whether it's photos, downloaded documents, meeting recordings, or scanned papers. There's a free tier that lets you analyze unlimited files and apply 30 renames or moves per month. Pro plans start at $8 per month or $48 for lifetime access, both unlocking unlimited file processing and all AI features. The app also includes right-click integration in Finder and File Explorer, AI search by content, and Auto Flow for watching folders like Downloads or Scans to process new files automatically.
