Smart File Manager for Mac

Your downloads,
with a memory.

One quiet place for the files that used to disappear into Downloads.

From click to catalog

It works while you do.

Download as usual. Filetale quietly adds the context and structure you will need later.

1

Download in Safari

When Safari exposes a likely download action, Filetale remembers useful page and link context—without keeping credentials, query strings or tracking data.

2

Filetale understands it

Text, type, source and content become categories, tags and a searchable summary—privately on your Mac.

3

Find it in seconds

Search by the words you remember, open the original page or jump to the file in Finder.

Built for retrieval

Downloads stop being a dead end.

Filetale adds just enough intelligence to make downloads useful again—without taking control of your files.

01Understand

Automatic, useful categories

Invoices, travel, contracts, recipes, memes and more—identified from the file itself, not just its name.

InvoicesTravelWorkRecipes
02Remember

Available source context

When Safari can provide it, the extension preserves useful page context so “where did I download this?” has an answer.

03Find

Search by what you remember

Search filenames, OCR text, categories, tags and source pages in one fast, private catalog.

Search like you remember

You do not need the filename.

Look for an idea, a place, a company, a phrase inside a scanned PDF—or the website you downloaded it from.
