How does it compare to Sparkle?

Curious how this compares to Every.to's Sparkle (makeitsparkle.co). Sparkle lets you set up Smart Folders, automatically creates three subfolders in each (AI Library, Manual Library, and Recent) and organizes the contents for you. The AI Library sorts everything for you into appropriate folders, e.g., Reports, Templates, Finance. It handles cloud services too, helps with de-duping, and has a quick search function, too.
Weakness-wise, it's frustrating that you can't tell it how you want to sort or organize certain things for example, I had to rename stuff in the AI Library from "Reports" to something more specific: "Panic Reports." And I have to make several folders with the same name "Smart Folders" (making them difficult to find in the window for managing said folders) because I use Tiago Forte's PARA system, and I wish Sparkle respected that.

So, can Kalycs (hard to pronounce and spell accurately, TBH) do what Sparkle does, and more? Or better? Or is it different?

Patch Update Shipped 🛳️ + What's Coming Next ➡️

Hey everyone,

First off, thank you. Genuinely. The support on launch day meant more than I can express, and I've been heads-down ever since reading every piece of feedback that came through.

I just shipped a patch release that squashes the bugs you reported. If you ran into issues, please update and let me know if things are working better for you now. (Version 1.0.4)

But I'm not stopping there. Based on what I've heard from buyers and users, here's what's on the roadmap:

AI-Powered File Search & Organization for Mac

I've wasted entire afternoons digging through folders, trying to find ONE file I know I downloaded. Hundreds of documents. Zero organization. Pure chaos. So I built something that lets me just ask where things are. and actually get answers.

If you have the same issue, please try Kalycs AI
