Most invoices I get are named invoice.pdf, scan 4.pdf, or some nonsense from the copier. I drop the billing folder into Zush and get names like 2026-05-12 Acme contract review invoice. I still check the list, but the boring part is gone.

What is Zush
Zush is an AI file renamer for Mac and Windows. It reads files across 104 supported formats and builds each filename from the content, metadata, dates, and rules you choose. Review every suggestion, rename a batch when you are ready, or undo it later. Templates and folder monitoring handle repeat work, while Cloud AI or Local AI let you choose where analysis runs.

Your naming system, powered by AI
Combine file content, metadata, dates, custom instructions, and reusable blocks into filenames that match the way you work. Zush suggests — you review and decide.
Smart Batch Rename
Analyze and rename 100+ file formats in one batch, from images and PDFs to audio, video, and Office files. Describe any detail for Zush to extract, then reuse it as a Custom AI Block in any template.
Watch one or multiple folders — including iCloud Drive, Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive folders. Zush runs in the background and processes new files automatically.
Save reusable rename setups for screenshots, expenses, music tracks, client work, legal files, travel bookings, and monitored folders.
Build consistent filenames from 145+ blocks covering dates, file metadata, audio, photos, finance, legal, travel, clients, and AI-detected fields.
Set rename, tagging, and metadata rules so AI output follows your style and workflow.
Automatically add Finder tags and Spotlight metadata. Find files instantly with natural search queries.
Keep track of every change. Made a mistake? Rollback to the original filename with one click.
Choose where AI runs
Use Zush Cloud, connect your own AI provider, or keep supported analysis on your device with Ollama.
Cloud AI
Goes through our relay to a commercial AI provider, under their standard API terms. The relay exists so the API key can’t be pulled out of the app.
Bring Your Own Key
Connect your own API key from Gemini, Groq, OpenAI, or Claude for cloud renames; FREE includes 50 across all modes and PRO is unlimited. Keys are stored locally in secure platform storage.
Private Local AI
Run supported file analysis with local Ollama models. Analysis content stays on your device, and the mode works offline after setup.
Who it’s for
Built for people who work with files all day
Every profession has its own naming convention. Zush reads each file and fills the structure you choose — without changing the folders or tools you already use.

Accountants & bookkeepers
Invoices, receipts, and statements named by vendor, date, number, and amount — ready for reconciliation.

Medical practices
Scanned records named by identifier, date of service, and record type — with a local AI mode, so files never leave the machine.

Legal teams
Filings, contracts, and correspondence named by matter, date, type, and party — the folder reads as the case chronology.

HR & people teams
Candidate, onboarding, review, and policy files named by employee, date, type, role, period, and status.

Photographers & videographers
RAW photos, clips, and exports named by project, date, subject, scene, and take — from ingest to archive.

Real estate teams
Agreements, disclosures, inspections, appraisals, and property photos named by address, date, type, party, and status.

What people say about Zush
Customer feedback from people who use Zush to clean up messy folders.
I keep a separate de-identified archive for follow-up notes. With Offline AI, Zush can name scans by visit date and a short diagnosis phrase. It is not something I run blindly, but it cuts the typing way down.
My Fuji files all start life as DSCF-something. Zush pulls the EXIF date, then adds plain words like Kyoto rain or Miller family porch. When I search an old drive, I do not have to remember the folder name anymore.
B-roll used to be a guessing game: clip_001, export2, final maybe. Zush names clips by what is on screen plus the date. I still fix a few, but I spend a lot less time opening ten videos to find one shot.
