AI Renamer

Give your messy files meaningful, AI-generated names

Content-aware renaming

Vision and language models inspect what is inside an image or document — subject matter, EXIF hints, page text — and generate a filename that actually describes it.

True batch processing

Drag in a whole folder of screenshots, downloads or scans, review the suggested names side by side, and rename everything with a single action.

Local model privacy

Point the app at Ollama or LM Studio and run renaming entirely on your own hardware, so confidential documents and client photos never reach a third-party server.

Custom instructions

Add your own naming rules — required prefixes, date formats, casing, preferred language — and the AI will follow them instead of defaulting to generic names.

+Works fully offline in Local Mode, which is rare among AI renaming tools
+Cross-platform desktop app for both macOS and Windows
+Preview and cancel workflow removes the risk of unwanted mass renames
