Folder organization
AI File Organizer for Mac and Windows
Move documents, images, and other supported files into folders chosen by content, metadata, or your existing folder names. Keep filenames or rename them at the same time.
- Three ways to choose a folder
- Move only, or rename and move
- Local AI available on Mac and Windows
Choose the folder rule first. Check the proposed destinations before applying a batch.
Choose how the destination is decided
| Method | What decides the folder | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
| AI Categories | AI selects from a preset list using file content | You need document types or other meaningful categories. |
| Metadata Folders | Date, EXIF, and fixed text form the path | You need folders based on recorded values. |
| Match Folders | AI selects an existing top-level destination folder | You already have client or project folders. |
Give similar categories a clear description
Start with a built-in AI preset or create your own categories with short descriptions. Explain what distinguishes Invoices from Receipts, for example. Category selection uses file content independently of naming instructions.
Build folders from metadata
Each Metadata Folder Builder row adds a level to the path. Choose the date source deliberately: capture date, file creation date, and modification date can differ. Set fallback folder names for absent EXIF values.
Use the folders you already have
Match Folders reads up to 50 top-level subfolder names in the destination. It does not learn an entire archive or invent extra folders. With a separate destination, unmatched files are applied at its root; deselect them if they should stay at the source.
Choose what changes on disk
Enable Categorize without Rename to keep the current names. Enable both to rename and move. Add your files, inspect destinations, and apply the selected rows. Folder drops include direct files by default; enable Recursive for subfolders.
Analysis does not use RenameClick credits. Free includes 30 renames or moves each month. Renaming and moving one file in the same action uses one credit; failed changes use none. Pro removes the apply limit. External API charges are separate.
Use a watched folder for recurring intake
An Auto Flow row can reuse your sorting preset and process incoming supported files while RenameClick runs. Watch queues files; Auto Apply decides whether the row applies its suggestions automatically.

FAQ
Can I organize files locally?
Choose Local for on-device analysis after downloading its model. Optional cloud providers in the direct macOS and Windows builds use your API key and receive content for analysis; their charges are separate. The Mac App Store build excludes cloud providers.
