Hi Product Hunt! I'm the creator of DiskBrain. The Backstory: Like many of you, I’ve often faced the "C Drive is Full" nightmare. I’d open Windows Explorer, only to find it wouldn't show me which folders were actually eating my space. I had to right-click 'Properties' on dozens of folders just to find the culprit. It was slow and frustrating. The Solution: I decided to build a tool that I personally wanted to use. I chose Rust to ensure it was lightning-fast and memory-safe. DiskBrain isn't just another disk analyzer. It’s designed to be: ⚡ Incredibly Fast: Scans hundreds of thousands of files in seconds. 📊 Visual & Intuitive: No more guessing; folder sizes are shown with clear, color-coded bars. ⏳ Time-Aware: You can take snapshots to see exactly how your disk changed over time. 🤖 AI-Powered: Not sure if a temporary folder is safe to delete? Just ask the built-in AI. Privacy First: DiskBrain runs 100% locally. No telemetry, no cloud uploads. Your file structure is your business. I’m excited to hear your feedback and answer any questions. Let’s reclaim that disk space!
