Everything you need to know before installing — supported OS versions, CPU architectures, memory, and permissions.
Pick the installer that matches how you manage software on your machine.
Signed and notarized universal .dmg, ~70 MB. Recommended when you want the latest release the day it ships.
Sandboxed Mac App Store build. Updates and receipts are managed by your Apple ID. Best for managed devices and enterprise rollouts.
From a fresh download to a fully automated rename pipeline, the whole flow on Mac fits in a single coffee break.
Or hit ⌘ Space and type “Zush”. The window opens to the AI Rename dropzone.
Try ~/Downloads or your Screenshots folder. Zush analyzes images, videos, and documents in parallel.
Click any name to edit, or hit Regenerate. When you’re happy, apply and the originals are renamed in place.
Open the Monitor tab → Add folder → pick ~/Downloads or your Screenshots folder. New supported files get descriptive names automatically, and you can exclude file types you do not want processed.
Zush plugs into the parts of macOS you already use every day — Finder, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and screenshots.
Drag files or folders from Finder into Zush, or use Rename with Zush from the Finder context menu. Review generated names, then apply the rename in place.
Use watched folders with Shortcuts, Automator, browser downloads, or export folders by saving new files into a monitored directory.
After Zush renames a file, the new name and tags are immediately searchable in Spotlight, Finder Tags, and Siri suggestions.
Point the screenshot save folder at a Zush-monitored directory. New screenshots get descriptive names within seconds, no extra step.
Zush works with ordinary iCloud Drive folders, including folders synced from iPhone. Let large sync jobs settle before applying very large batches.
Native macOS appearance toggle. Zush follows your system theme automatically and respects your accent color.
These are the everyday Mac workflows people use Zush for. Each one is a watch-folder or drag-and-drop away.
Point Zush at your Screenshots folder. Every new capture gets a descriptive name within seconds — no more scrolling through hundreds of timestamped files.
Watch ~/Downloads. Bank statements, e-receipts, signed contracts, and exports all get readable names as they land — searchable in Spotlight on day one.
Sync photos from iPhone into a Zush-watched iCloud folder. RAW, HEIC, and JPG are analyzed by AI vision and renamed to describe what’s actually in the photo.
Stop hunting through generic export names. Drop your exports folder onto Zush and ship to engineering with names that match the component.
Zush samples video frames and optional subtitles so screen recordings, product demos, and b-roll clips become searchable without opening each file.
Zush reads PDF text content — vendor, amount, date, contract type — and writes a name that survives a folder full of look-alike documents.
Pick a card or USB drive, drop the whole folder onto Zush, hit Apply. Hundreds of files get unique descriptive names in one batch — no patterns to write.
Zush is built to satisfy macOS security expectations. Notarized binary, sandboxed App Store option, Keychain-stored keys, and clear data boundaries.
The direct .dmg is signed with a Developer ID and notarized before release so supported macOS versions can verify the app normally.
The Mac App Store build runs inside the App Sandbox. Folder access is granted via security-scoped bookmarks chosen by you.
Cloud mode only sends the analysis payload (compressed preview, sampled video frames, subtitles, extracted text, or compact summary). Offline AI mode sends nothing — Ollama runs locally.
BYOK keys are stored in macOS Keychain. They never leave the device unencrypted and are only used to call your chosen provider.
Mac-first renaming workflows for Finder, Spotlight, Downloads, screenshots, videos, and local AI.
Analyze screenshots, videos, PDFs, HEIC and RAW photos, Office docs, and exports without leaving a native macOS workflow.
Monitor ~/Downloads, Desktop, or a screenshot folder so selected file types get readable names as they arrive.
Drag files or folders from Finder into Zush, review every suggested name, then apply the rename in place.
Use patterns with dates, categories, and original names so Finder folders stay consistent across projects.
Generate readable names and metadata so files are easier to find later with Finder and Spotlight.
Every Mac rename is logged, so you can revert files back to their original names if a batch needs another pass.
Tell Zush how to name design exports, invoices, videos, screenshots, and client folders before you apply changes.
Connect Gemini, Groq, OpenAI, or Claude with your own key when you want unlimited cloud renames from macOS.
Run supported Mac file analysis with local models when privacy or offline work matters more than cloud speed.
Native desktop feel, fast renaming, one-time pricing, and fewer annoying decisions on Mac
Most AI file renamers try to become another monthly bill. Zush stays simple: free to try, then one small one-time purchase when it proves useful.
Zush feels like a real native Mac app: quick to open, clean to use, and visually at home on your machine instead of feeling like a clunky utility panel.
Speed matters because cleanup only sticks if it does not interrupt the real work. Drop files in, review, apply, move on.
Supports AVIF, RAW, Office files, subtitles, and common video formats, so mixed folders can be renamed by actual content instead of file-type silos.
Clean up old piles in batch, keep new folders readable with monitoring, and revert from history if you want a different name.
No subscriptions, no hidden fees. Just a simple one-time purchase.
One-time purchase • Lifetime access
14-day money-back guarantee • Secure via Paddle
