Clementine - Tap Shift while dragging a file to convert it on your Mac

Drag any file on your Mac, tap Shift, and a wheel of formats opens around your cursor. Drop it on the one you want and the converted copy lands next to the original. Images, video, audio, PDF to Word with OCR, Excel and CSV, plus RAR, 7z and ZIP extraction. Shrink videos and PDFs too. It all runs on your device, with nothing uploaded. On iPhone and iPad, use it from the share sheet. Try it free for 7 days, then pay $9.99 once for all your devices.

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Rey, and I made Clementine because I wanted converting a file to take one gesture.
On the Mac, start dragging any file and tap Shift. A wheel of formats opens around your cursor. Drop the file on the one you want, and the converted copy appears next to the original.
It handles images (HEIC, JPEG, PNG, AVIF and more), video and audio, PDF to Word with text recognition for scans, Excel and CSV, and archives. It extracts ZIP, RAR, 7z and tar, and big archives show a progress bar with a stop button. It can also shrink videos and PDFs.
It lives in your menu bar, and everything runs on your device: no account, no uploads. The first time you convert something in a new folder, macOS asks you to allow saving there.
On iPhone and iPad, the same wheel opens from the share sheet in any app.
It's free for 7 days, then $9.99 once, with no subscription. One purchase unlocks it on your Mac, iPhone and iPad.
I'd love your feedback: which format is missing, and does the Shift gesture feel natural to you?
