A tidy folder tree can still be the wrong folder tree

by•

I’m building Moa, a macOS desktop file organizer. One design decision I’d love to discuss is the starting folder structure.

Moa lets you combine category, year, and file type in your preferred order. Leading with a category or a year gives the same files a different home. You can preview destinations, adjust the plan, and choose moving or copying. Existing folders keep their internal structure.

Basic sorting runs locally. Optional AI review uses an installed Codex or Claude Code CLI and sends file and folder names you review first; document contents aren’t sent.

It’s for Mac computers only: no Windows, iOS, or Android support. There’s no public download yet, but joining the early-access waitlist is free:

For the first run, would you prefer one suggested folder structure to edit, or choosing the hierarchy yourself before seeing a preview?
