Useful names in seconds.Clear the file admin
Files multiply.
The admin shouldn’t.
Camera dumps, client deliveries, downloads and document piles quickly become difficult to scan. Identifile turns the whole batch into something you can recognise, sort and retrieve.
Find the right file later
Turn metadata and file content into meaningful, sortable filenames.
Make every name usefulOrganise the folder as well
Use AI to propose a clear folder structure, inspect every route and approve the result.
Less filing workA flexible naming workflow
Build Logically or with AI.
See every result.
Choose a naming method, add as many steps as the job needs and keep the result visible while you work.

One app. Three ways to clear the work.
Choose the right way
to get the batch done.
Set exact rules, have Identifile’s AI suggest meaningful names, or turn a mixed pile into an editable folder plan.
Logical RenamingExact rules.
Repeatable results.
Build a precise workflow once, preview it across the whole batch, then save it for the next job.
Build the name
Choose the filename you want.
Combine custom text, metadata and numbering into one clear, consistent name. The whole result stays visible while you build it.
IMG_1001.jpg→2026-09-27 — StudioCam — 01.jpg
Stack the tools
Mix, order and reuse every step.
Add Find & Replace, prefixes, suffixes, sequences, metadata, date formatting, case changes and cleaning tools. Put them in the exact order you want, then save the setup as a preset.
Target the right files
Set conditions to target files.
Match by name, type, size, location or date, then preview exactly what will be affected.
Choose the safe finish
Keep originals. Avoid collisions.
Create renamed copies when source files should remain untouched, make duplicate results unique automatically, and review the complete plan before anything changes.
The finished batch
See the before and after together.
Every original name stays beside its proposed result, so you can scan the entire batch and fix anything that does not look right before applying it.

AI RenamingHave AI find the details.
You choose the name.
Have Identifile’s AI analyse a photo, invoice or document and suggest a useful filename from the details it finds.
Analyse the file
Let Identifile do the thinking.
Instead of opening each file and typing the details yourself, run AI Search across the selection. Identifile analyses the content and brings back editable fields you can use.
Visual descriptionInvoice dateSupplierInvoice numberClientAmountDocument type
Review what AI found
Useful details become choices.
Add only what you want to the filename and see every change live. If you’re unsure, press the Space bar to preview the file’s contents.
Approve the suggestion
AI suggests. You decide.
Watch the proposed filename update before applying it. Nothing is renamed until you are happy with the result and choose to make the change.

AI OrganiseWatch file chaos
turn into order.
Identifile uses artificial intelligence to structure your files into useful folders for easier retrieval—then shows you the complete proposal before anything moves.
See the plan take shape
Follow every coloured cable.
Each cable connects a file to its proposed destination. Watch the folder map form, trace every route and see exactly how Identifile plans to organise the collection.
Inspect the destinations
Edit the folder map before it becomes real.
Open the proposed structure, rename folders, change destinations and resolve anything that needs attention. The map stays editable so the organisation fits the way you work.
Choose whether to apply it
Nothing changes until you approve it.
Review flagged files, adjust the proposal, or leave the collection exactly where it is.
The complete toolkit
Flexibility is key.
Everyone files and works differently, so Identifile lets you create custom workflows that suit the way you work. Mix and match naming tools, arrange each step in the order you need, and save your favourite setups as reusable presets.
BUILD A COMPLETE NAME
Put every useful part in the right order.
Combine custom text, metadata and sequence numbering, then watch the entire batch update as you type.

An Identifile Droplet is a small Mac app created from a saved workflow. Keep it on your Desktop, in Finder or in the Dock. Drag files or folders onto it to apply the saved workflow immediately. Review the rules before using a Droplet; it does not show a per-batch preview.

Frequently asked questions.
Practical details about buying, compatibility, privacy and staying in control of every change.
Can I try Identifile before buying?
Download the free trial for up to 14 days or 100 successful file operations, whichever comes first. When the trial ends, buy Identifile on the Mac App Store, then download and open the purchased edition. The trial app does not unlock automatically. Save your session in the trial and open that session in the purchased app to continue your saved setup.
Where can I buy Identifile?
Identifile is available on the Mac App Store. Pricing and availability are shown for your country or region.
How is Identifile purchased?
Identifile is a one-time purchase through the Mac App Store, with no subscription or in-app purchases. Review the price and applicable terms on the App Store before buying.
Which Macs are supported?
Identifile is built for macOS 14.4 or later. The launch version is for Mac; a Windows version is on the roadmap.
Do I have to use AI?
No. Logical Renaming gives you a complete, precise workflow without AI. AI Renaming and AI Organise are additional options when file content can help.
Can I keep the original files?
Yes. Choose to create renamed copies when the source material should remain untouched.
Can I undo changes?
Yes. You can undo your work at any stage if you need to step back.
What happens if two files produce the same name?
Identifile can make duplicate resulting names unique automatically, so one result does not replace another.
Can I save and reuse a workflow?
Yes. Save your preferred combination of naming steps as a reusable preset for the next batch.
What is an Identifile Droplet?
A Droplet is a small Mac app made from a saved workflow. Dropping files onto it applies its rules immediately, without a per-batch preview. Check the saved workflow first.
How do Droplets help with repeat jobs?
Keep a Droplet on your Desktop, in Finder or in the Dock for each recurring job. A camera card, client delivery, invoice batch or archive can return to the right naming setup without rebuilding every step.
Can I export a record of the changes?
Yes. Export a PDF showing original names, new names, file locations and what changed.
Does AI send my files anywhere?
No. With local AI selected, analysis runs on your Mac and your source files and their contents remain entirely on your machine.
