What is RenamerX?

RenamerX is a local-first desktop application for macOS and Windows that renames and organizes messy file collections using AI. It reads the contents of documents, images, and videos on your device and suggests clear, searchable filenames that follow your naming rules. Files never leave your machine, and every suggestion can be reviewed before anything changes on disk.

How to use RenamerX?

1. Choose a naming template defining your file structure and the fields to extract (dates, clients, amounts, etc.). 2. Add files or folders to RenamerX; everything stays on your machine. 3. Let the local AI read the files and build consistent names following your template. 4. Review every suggestion, fix edge cases, then rename in bulk. 5. Undo anytime to roll back applied changes. Use it for one-time cleanup or ongoing watch-folder automation.
