You make rules. Forma follows them. Preview what happens, approve it, undo anything.
$29 once. macOS 15+. No subscription.
Features
Most organizers move first and explain later. Forma shows you everything upfront — then lets you decide.
"If the filename contains screenshot, move it to Screenshots." Rules are that readable. No syntax, no config files — just conditions and destinations.
You have 200 screenshots named IMG_xxxx.HEIC. Forma groups them by type so one rule handles all of them — instead of writing 200 rules.
Preview everything before it happens. See exactly which files move where, toggle individual items, then approve the batch.

How Forma works
Preview first
Every proposed move appears in a queue before anything happens. See source, destination, and the rule behind it.
Undo always
Full action history with one-click rollback. Experiment freely — every change is reversible.
Private by design
100% on-device processing. Your files and their names never leave your Mac.
Pricing
No subscription. No account. No ‘premium tiers.’ Pay once, own it forever.
