MacManager

Finder alternative · iCloud manager & SSD backup · Mail suite · Real system tools.

Finder is optimised for not alarming you. It hides paths, collapses iCloud state into one ambiguous cloud icon, and tells you nothing about why a search matched. MacManager takes the opposite position: every row can show its exact path, provider, volume, owner, permissions and link target, and every search result can show which part of it matched — the filename, the metadata, the extracted text, or the visual similarity.

iCloud residency is the clearest example. Finder gives you a cloud badge. MacManager distinguishes cloud-only, queued, downloading, downloaded, stale, uploading, conflicted and errored as separate states, and puts Download Now and a safe Remove Download next to them. If a file is not really on the machine, you know before you open a 3 GB video on a train.

  • iCloud to external SSD, verified
  • A mail suite in the same window
  • Search that shows its reasoning
  • Operations you can audit afterwards

Canary Browser

Private workspaces · Burner Tabs · Calm native browsing.

Canary gives each persistent workspace its own website-data container. Tabs in one workspace can share logins, cookies and caches with each other, while another workspace cannot see them. Moving a tab recreates its page inside the destination identity, and deleting a workspace erases that workspace's website data after its live pages have closed.

For sessions that should not persist, Private Tabs and one-use Burner Tabs never restore. A Burner Tab can close when you leave it. Regular inactive tabs can hibernate, while side-by-side browsing on supported Mac widths keeps two pages visible when the task needs comparison rather than tab switching.

  • Identity-isolated workspaces
  • Tabs that know when to disappear
  • A privacy report with verbs

See what fills your storage. Clean it with an undo.

Disk usage tools are easy; safe disk cleanup is not. SpaceLens maps the volume visually so large directories stop hiding, then puts an undo step between you and deletion.

The scan is local and reads the real filesystem rather than a cached index.

Duplicates, blur and screenshot clutter — found on-device.

Duplicate detection is easy to get wrong, and the cost of getting it wrong is a deleted photo. Sift groups exact duplicates, near-duplicates, blurred frames and screenshots, and always shows the candidates side by side before you act.

All analysis runs on-device with Apple's vision frameworks. Your library is not uploaded for scoring.

Gravity

Snap windows · Dock apps to cubes · Put them in orbit.

The snapping is what you expect: halves, quarters, thirds, two-thirds, sixths, maximise, almost-maximise and centre, by shortcut or by dragging a window to an edge or corner with a live preview. The shortcuts match Magnet's, so muscle memory transfers, and all of them are remappable.

Desktop Shapes are the part that is genuinely different. Any manageable app window can be docked onto a cube face; the cube holds and restores those windows, and populated cubes can be placed into orbit around Gravity's desktop solar system. Scenes also record every window across every display and restore the arrangement when you redock.

Import PDF, EPUB, DOCX, RTF, HTML, Markdown, plain text or images. Rather than rendering pages, Easy Reader builds a semantic graph with stable block anchors, hierarchy and page mappings — which is why an annotation stays attached to the right paragraph after you change the font size.

Focus Flow adapts the presentation for sustained reading. OCR, speech synthesis and the intelligence features run on-device, so a confidential document stays confidential.

MultiAgentOS

Agent browser · Local tools · Bring-your-own LLM.

Most AI desktop tools bundle the model and charge a subscription for it. MultiAgentOS separates the two. You connect through six modes — API key, local server, CLI pipe, OAuth, Terminal, or a local GGUF file — and the app supplies the part that is actually hard to build: a supervised harness of browser, desktop, code, terminal, file and screenshot sidecars.

Every tool call is rendered with its arguments and its result. Nothing runs invisibly. Subagents are configured with an explicit goal, a tool allow-list, a recursion limit, a turn budget and a defined result handoff, so a runaway loop is bounded by construction rather than by hope.

  • Six connection modes

LLM Browser

AI browser · Agent automation · Local control API.

The interface is a conventional browser — tabs, address bar, bookmarks, history, downloads, privacy controls and settings. The difference is a visible AI Workbench where a connected model plans a task, navigates, reads pages, clicks, fills forms, runs JavaScript, takes screenshots and gathers evidence. Tool calls, results and approval requests remain in view instead of disappearing into a background agent.

LLM Browser is also a coding harness. Inside the project folder you choose, an agent can inspect and edit files, run shell commands, use bundled Node 22 and Python 3.12 runtimes, start development servers, inspect logs, work with GitHub, create documents, conduct research and verify the running result in the browser. Writes are scoped to that workspace and consequential actions pass through approval controls.

InQ

One document · Four views · Writing, data, canvas, present.

The usual workflow is a spreadsheet, a document and a deck holding three copies of the same numbers, which drift apart the moment one changes. InQ keeps one `.inq` file and gives it four views: Flow for prose, Data for spreadsheet work, Canvas for freeform layout and Present for slides.

Because the views share a source, a changed figure propagates to every formula, chart and narrative reference that points at it. The deck does not go stale, because it was never a copy.

Spider Notes

Notes as a spider web · Radial spokes · Concentric rings.

Spider diagrams are a well-established memory technique: spatial position and radial relationships give recall something to hold onto that a linear list does not. Most apps treat mind-mapping as a drawing feature. Here it is the primary model — nodes auto-arrange into a clean web instead of drifting wherever you drop them.

Recall mode is the payoff. It blanks the labels and asks you to rebuild the structure from memory, turning the note into a test.

Insightful

399 math lessons · Learn by doing · Private progress.

Insightful organizes 399 ready lessons into 33 step-by-step paths. The range starts with place value, arithmetic, times tables, fractions, decimals, percentages and word problems, then continues through algebra, trigonometry and pre-calculus, calculus, matrix and linear algebra, probability and statistics. Each lesson is structured around a named method rather than a page of disconnected questions, with Learn, Practice and Challenge levels available as the learner progresses.

A lesson first makes the reasoning visible through an animated concept walkthrough, then shifts into guided and hands-on work. The interaction library includes counters, fraction bars, number lines, balance scales, coordinate grids, expression builders, function graphs, angle and unit-circle controls, vectors, matrices, data plots, probability trees, Riemann sums and limit zooms. The exact activity depends on the topic; the point is to practise the operation instead of only watching an explanation.

Local dashboard design · Responsive layouts · Five export formats.

Dash Weaver is a local dashboard-design studio for planning how a report should look and travel. Begin with one of four distinct professional presets — executive, marketing, economics or engineering/SRE — or shape the workspace yourself. Every built-in value is clearly labelled SAMPLE DATA so layouts can use realistic-looking structures without being mistaken for a connected production dashboard.

Edit mode gives each panel a place and purpose. Add, remove or duplicate panels; drag and resize them; choose a sample source and metric; and switch among KPI, line, area, bar, donut, table, gauge and heatmap visualizations. Style, number formatting, colors and legend options remain configurable. Desktop, tablet and phone controls reveal how the same dashboard responds at different widths before it is handed off.

Squiddy Constructing Language

Chinese & Japanese · 52 game cards · Offline references.

Squiddy Constructing Language combines two offline study libraries with a finite game-based practice lab. The Direct build exposes 52 game cards across Mandarin Chinese and Japanese, so a learner can choose a specific pattern instead of waiting for a daily lesson or connecting to a remote course service. Everything in the installed edition is available without an account, activation server or network connection.

Mandarin activities cover tones, particles, measure words and conjugation, including Mandarin Tone Quest. Japanese activities cover particles, counters and conjugation. Shared formats such as Syntax Builder, Number Builder and Script Match add sentence order, number construction and character recognition practice. Supported games include bundled audio prompts; they do not depend on streaming a separate audio course.

  • 52 focused game cards
  • Mandarin pattern practice
  • Japanese pattern practice

Metra

Steady progress, made visible.

Metra brings the observations that are easy to forget into one calm daily view: appetite, comfort, hydration, energy, treatment schedules and whether a dose was taken, late or skipped. Entries stay in the app's private local container unless you explicitly export or share them.

The point is not to turn one difficult day into a conclusion. Metra groups repeated measurements across 7-day, 30-day, 90-day and all-time ranges, then prepares a plain-language summary of tracked signals, active treatments and adherence history. You can review and edit what is relevant before sharing it with a clinician.

Clarity for the changing middle.

Aurelia gives perimenopause and menopause observations a calm, consistent home. Record sleep changes, hot flashes, mood, energy and the context around them, then review the story as a timeline instead of trying to reconstruct it from memory during an appointment.

The trends view compares repeated signals over practical ranges while the appointments workspace keeps the date, provider, questions and follow-up notes together. It helps you arrive with a concise history and the questions you do not want to forget; it does not turn an app pattern into a medical conclusion.

The experiment planner helps you change one routine at a time. Define the question, expected result, primary signal and observation window, then compare repeated entries in the trends view. The purpose is to make a routine easier to discuss and evaluate, not to turn a correlation into a medical conclusion.

Cadence Email Sequences

Email journeys · Branching logic · Private drafting & export.

A good lifecycle campaign is more than a stack of drafts. Cadence puts the whole journey on one left-to-right board: who enters, what the sequence is trying to change, when each message fires, where a condition changes the path and which events should remove someone before the next send. Cumulative timing stays visible, so a three-day wait is understood in the context of the entire sequence rather than as an isolated setting.

Each email step carries its subject, preheader and full body. You can write directly, ask Cadence's built-in deterministic templates for a complete first draft, or use an optional provider for copy shaped by the audience, goal, trigger, prior subject lines and exit conditions. Apple Intelligence can run on-device where supported; Ollama and LM Studio stay on your local network; cloud models use an API key you supply and Cadence stores in the macOS Keychain.

The analysis engine runs locally and does not need a model. It extracts and compares themes across every usable profile, identifies language shared by multiple competitors, highlights terms that are distinctive to one brand and calculates pairwise messaging similarity. Against the focus brand, Vantage organizes the result into gaps to close, differentiators to amplify and contested ground where everyone sounds alike.

The deterministic engine groups contacts by a useful categorical field and can be rerun against another eligible column. It keeps every supplied contact represented, folds very small overflow groups into an Other segment when needed, and supports up to 24 persona groups. Each card turns its segment into defining traits, a plain-language summary, priorities, likely objections and three concrete messaging angles. When a contact table is not available, the Manual mode builds profiles from a name and simple key-value attributes instead.

Timbre puts the draft and its voice inspector in one native Mac workspace. Start with the worked example or replace it with your own copy, then define the yardstick: a profile name, target tone attributes, preferred terms, words the brand avoids and claim phrases that should not appear. A manual Check voice action keeps the result tied to a known version of the draft, and Timbre tells you when the text has changed since that check.

The core analyzer is deterministic and needs no model or account. It produces an overall score and letter grade from four visible dimensions — lexicon alignment, claim integrity, readability and tone match — then highlights the exact spans behind the result. Configured banned terms and claims receive the strongest warnings; confident-tone hedges, likely passive constructions and long sentences are surfaced as heuristic editorial signals. The inspector ranks issues, explains each one and proposes a next step instead of hiding the score behind a single number.

With all three platforms selected, the same brief becomes three Meta variants, three Google variants and three LinkedIn variants, each split into headline, primary text, description and call-to-action fields.

Every variant remains editable. Refract shows the text inside a platform-shaped preview and counts each field as you type using Unicode grapheme clusters. The visible budget changes by platform and field, with near-limit and over-limit states surfaced immediately. Its 0–100 hook score is deterministic: it rewards disclosed copy signals such as useful hook words, an appropriately sized headline, a question or number, a concrete CTA and substantive primary text, while penalizing empty or over-limit fields.

The local generator turns those inputs into five familiar landing-page blocks: hero headline, supporting subheadline, call to action, benefit bullets and FAQ.

Every block has deterministic A and B variants rather than one take-it-or-leave-it answer. Foldline shows the selected copy in a page-shaped preview, lets you switch variants independently and provides copy controls at block level. Regenerating the same brief without a model intentionally repeats the same output, which makes the built-in path reproducible. When a supported AI provider is available, the hero, subheadline and CTA can receive an additional AI variant, and individual lines can be sent for an optional rewrite.

Chorus starts from material you already have. Paste an article or transcript into the source workspace and generate a content pack once the input reaches 20 words. Before presenting channel drafts, the app builds a deterministic digest that identifies the source title, central idea and key points. That compact source view stays beside the outputs so each adaptation can be checked against the material it came from.

One generation produces four channel-shaped outputs: a LinkedIn post, a numbered X thread, a marketing email and a short-video script. These are not the same paragraph copied four times. Each deterministic template has its own structure, length and conventions, and the interface separates the channels for review.

Cited gives AI-search content review a focused native Mac workspace. Enter one public HTTP or HTTPS URL, paste HTML, or paste plain text. For a URL, the app retrieves one raw response; for pasted material, it analyzes exactly what you supply. The deterministic audit then extracts readable content and exposes the title, word count, headings, FAQ patterns, structured-data signals, named entities and checkable claims behind its result.

The 0–100 readiness grade is a disclosed heuristic built from five dimensions: structure and headings, FAQ or question-and-answer coverage, structured data when HTML is available, answer-first writing, and entity and claim coverage. Cited shows each dimension separately, lists detected signals and turns weak areas into prioritized recommendations. The score is designed to make an editorial preflight reviewable; it is not a search ranking model and does not claim access to a search engine's index or citation systems.

Start with a public-page URL, paste text directly, or open a local TXT, Markdown, HTML, CSV, TSV, JSON or XML file no larger than 8 MB. Pasted text and local files are processed on the Mac. A URL analysis contacts the page you enter because the app must retrieve that public response before it can inspect it.

The report separates measured signals from interpretation. It surfaces document structure, claims, source references and the boundaries of what the current run could observe, then preserves the supporting evidence beside each finding. That makes the result an inspectable editorial aid rather than a hidden score or a promise that a search system will cite the page.

Cluster begins with material you control: a seed topic, an optional pasted keyword list or an imported CSV. A seed on its own expands through a disclosed deterministic set of candidate modifiers. Pasted rows can be one phrase per line or carry trailing integer volume and difficulty values. CSV import recognizes keyword, keywords, query, term or phrase columns case-insensitively, plus common volume and difficulty headings, and otherwise uses the first column as the phrase.

The same input produces the same plan. Cluster trims blank rows, deduplicates phrases case-insensitively, sorts them into a stable processing order and groups them beneath a pillar and expandable subtopic tree. Every keyword receives a heuristic search-intent label and a 0–100 priority score derived from intent, optional user-supplied volume and difficulty, and long-tail specificity. The interface shows intent mix, subtopic priority and any imported metrics so the recommendation can be challenged rather than accepted as hidden truth.

Ants

Command the colony · Build, evolve and conquer.

Ants begins with workers gathering forage and returning it to drop-off structures, then opens into a full colony economy. Build farms, chambers, workshops, silos, depots and defensive towers; manage storage and production queues; capture territory; and choose linked biological and steampunk research paths before committing resources.

The eight fixed-seed campaign missions vary the objective rather than repeating one elimination match. Hold territory, build a stockpile, survive and cull hostile wildlife, or destroy a developed rival across seven grounds. Each mission carries its own briefing, starting economy, available technology, map, biome and wildlife cadence, with progress stored locally.

  • Eight authored campaign missions
  • An economy you can shape
  • Biology meets machinery
  • Battlefields that retain the battle

Boom Racer

Solo combat racing · Breakaway parts · 20 warzones.

Boom Racer is a native single-player demolition combat racer built around survival rather than a clean racing line. Choose one of 20 distinct five-lap warzones, set a field of 3–11 AI rivals and drive into a race where opponents attack, recover and continue fighting. The last moving vehicle wins; if more than one machine survives the lap limit, the remaining field enters sudden death.

The Scrapheap Bunker is both garage and armory. Start from 13 vehicle presets or combine six chassis with 14 weapons, then configure armor, defensive hardware, wheels, skins and perks. Vehicles take part-level damage: armor shears away as debris, engines smoke and burn, and detached wheels or other components change how the machine handles rather than acting as a cosmetic damage counter.

  • 20 hostile circuits
  • Configurable AI field
  • Build in the bunker
  • Damage changes the drive
