MelvilYour files, in the folders they belong in.
Melvil watches your folders, helps you tag what arrives, and moves files where your own rules say, only after you approve the plan. Every move can be undone.
No spam. We use your address once, to tell you Melvil is available.Melvil is in final testing. Nothing here is for sale yet.
How it works
1. Watch
Pick folders like Downloads or a cloud drive. New files land in an inbox; nothing is moved yet.
2. Tag
Tag files by hand with shortcuts, or let AI suggest tags from names and dates. You accept each suggestion.
3. Reorganize
Melvil proposes where each file goes. You review one plan: approve, apply, undo.
Calm by design
Your files stay yours
Melvil reads names, sizes, dates and tags. File contents never leave your Mac.
Bring your own AI
Use your API key, or connect an AI app such as Claude on your Mac. No AI account with us.
Nothing is lost
Moves are journaled and undoable, never overwrite, and are checked again after a cloud sync.
Questions
Does Melvil upload my files?
No. If you ask an AI for suggestions, it receives file names, relative paths, sizes, dates and tags, never what is inside a file.
Why not the Mac App Store?
The App Store sandbox would block the AI app connection and the folder access Melvil needs.
When can I get it?
Soon. Email us and we will tell you the day it opens, with the price.
