Silo Tidy.
Review and organize files on your Mac — local by default.
The current Mac App Store build offers editable review, exact Copy and Move previews, Workspace Audit, run history, conflict-safe undo, Current and Compact local models, and opt-in Bring Your Own Key. Optional model downloads are pinned to an exact revision, checked for integrity, and can resume after an interrupted transfer; a partial download is never loaded.
Available todayNo upload step by default.
Scanning, extraction, and OCR run on your Mac, and classification runs through a bundled local runtime unless you turn on Bring Your Own Key. With it on, for each file classified by a model, the app sends the file's name, type, size, metadata, and a text excerpt of up to 1,200 characters, plus your category names and descriptions, straight to the provider you configure. Filename rules work without a model; the optional pinned Gemma 4 E2B download adds stronger content-aware classification after explicit consent.
Available todayDescribe the buckets in plain language.
Silo Tidy ships a sensible default taxonomy, but the real power is editing it: define 'Invoices from vendors', 'Kid's school paperwork', or 'Screenshots of bugs' in natural language and Silo Tidy classifies against your labels. The file system you end up with is yours.
Available todayReview first. Write only the frozen plan.
Correct one file or a selection in bulk, resolve every low-confidence result, and inspect exact destinations before a write. If a source, decision, or destination changes after review, the commit refuses to proceed.
Documents, images, code, archives, and audio/video metadata are all in scope. Text parses locally; Apple Vision labels images and handles OCR; the optional Gemma 4 model maps content and labels to your categories.
Every result shows category, confidence, method, and reason. Recategorize one file or a selection in bulk; unresolved low-confidence results remain an explicit review state.
Preview every destination before a write. Copy and Move reject drift instead of overwriting; Smart Folder writes a .savedSearch receipt that groups the exact reviewed files without moving them.
Completed runs keep their reviewed decisions, exact destinations, state, and undo eligibility. Undo restores only unchanged destinations when the original path is safe; changed or missing files remain untouched and are reported as conflicts.
A size, partial-hash, and full-hash funnel finds byte-identical files. You choose the keeper and which redundant copies move into a destination folder; nothing is silently deleted.
Choose Current Gemma 4 E2B at roughly 3.58 GB or Compact Ternary Bonsai 4B at roughly 1.14 GB. Silo Tidy shows the exact host, immutable revision, license, hashes, storage, and device fit before consent.
