FAQ
Reforge is a native rule-driven batch renamer and file router from Automata Labs for macOS and Windows. Build deterministic path logic, preview before you execute, and keep large file jobs local—no cloud drive gymnastics. One-time license. If you are outgrowing ad-hoc scripts, brittle Finder tricks, and “I will fix filenames later” debt, you are the user Reforge is for.
Because regex is powerful and humans are not perfect. Reforge is built around seeing the destination names and folder moves before the filesystem changes—so “oops” is not a data-loss story.
If you like writing scripts at 1 a.m., you can. Reforge is for the rest of the team: repeatable rules, a desktop UI, and the same project on both Mac and Windows without translating shell dialects.
Local-first does not mean “pretend latency is zero.” Plan previews on representative folders, then scale. The goal is controlled execution, not blind speed on a terabyte of chaos.
Reforge is a deterministic file rename and folder-routing engine: preview, execute, and keep it all on-device—no brittle script zoo.
