The free FileCura app ships with seven Finder Quick Actions for the things you do most. No cloud, no document management system, no uploads.
Define your own tag groups and apply category keywords to Finder Comments and Spotlight metadata in one click.
Pick a single tag from your saved categories and apply it to one or many selected files at once.
Add text before or after filenames, use separators, run find-and-replace, and edit Finder Comments in bulk.
Flag likely duplicate files using metadata signals like name, size, and extension. Free, fast, no deletion.
Refresh Spotlight and Finder metadata paths when comments or file metadata need a nudge after moves or renames.
Remove repeated Finder Comment lines so file metadata stays readable, useful, and small.
FileCura ships as Finder Quick Actions — extra verbs in the right-click menu for tagging, routing, deduping, and bulk transfers.
Finder stays the host. FileCura just gives it more verbs.
Each pack is a one-time purchase. Lifetime license. License file arrives by email and unlocks the workflows inside FileCura. See all packs →
Build routing rules that move files to the right place automatically — no scripting, no watchers, no background daemons.
Combine conditions with AND or OR — match by extension, size, age, tag, comment, name pattern, or regex — and the Quick Action handles the rest from the right-click menu.
Save profiles, reuse them across folders, share them between Macs.
Install once, configure your categories, then use FileCura from Finder whenever you need it.
Mount the signed and notarised DMG, drag FileCura to Applications, then launch it.
On first launch FileCura copies its seven free Finder Quick Actions into your user Services folder and enables them in Finder — no manual setup.
Use the Categories section to define groups like Documents, Projects, Receipts, Legal — or your own workflow names.
Select files or folders, right-click, then choose Quick Actions → pick a FileCura workflow.
Buy a pack from filecura.com/packs — your license arrives by email within a couple of minutes. Drag it onto FileCura and the new workflows unlock instantly.
Signed and notarised Developer ID DMG for macOS 14+, distributed outside the Mac App Store. The app is free; paid packs are optional add-ons.
By downloading you agree to FileCura's terms and privacy policy. The free app installs seven Finder Quick Actions. Paid packs are separate one-time purchases — browse them here.
A few common questions. The full guide is on the Support page.
FileCura auto-enables them on first launch, but if Finder doesn't show them, open System Settings → Login Items & Extensions → Quick Actions, then make sure the FileCura items are enabled. You may also need to relaunch Finder.
Categories live locally at
~/Library/Application Support/FileCura/categories.json.
FileCura reads this file at runtime and never uploads it
anywhere.
No. FileCura does not upload files, send telemetry, or require a cloud account. Everything runs on your Mac.
Open FileCura → Quick Actions tab → Remove FileCura Quick Actions. Your saved categories and licenses stay safe and aren't touched.
Some Quick Actions need Finder automation permission to read or update Finder Comments for selected files. This is a one-time approval inside System Settings → Privacy.
Not yet. FileCura is distributed as a signed and notarised Developer ID DMG outside the Mac App Store.
FileCura runs entirely on your machine. The files never leave, the app never phones home, and the licence keeps working whether we're online or not. We sell software, not access.
Download, drag to Applications, paste a licence key. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing to log into.
Zero analytics, crash pings, or usage tracking — we have no idea who runs FileCura or what they do with it, and that's the point.
Pay once per pack, own that version forever. The free app and bundled Quick Actions stay free.
Licences verify locally with Ed25519 signatures, so the app keeps working on a plane, behind a firewall, or ten years from now.
