Reforge - Batch rename thousands of files safely - with full undo

by•
Reforge is a deterministic file transformation engine for macOS and Windows. Batch rename, route, and reorganize massive file libraries without relying on fragile scripts. Preview every change before execution and undo any batch instantly if something goes wrong. Most rename tools let you preview changes — but few give you a reliable way to reverse them. Reforge is built around safety first. Runs fully local. No cloud. No subscriptions.

Hey everyone, I built Reforge after watching a rename script corrupt a client archive. That moment stuck with me. If you work with files at scale, you’ve probably felt this: • scripts are fragile • previews help — but they don’t protect you • one bad pattern can wreck thousands of files Most tools focus on flexibility. I wanted something I could actually trust. So Reforge is built around three things: • deterministic rules (no surprises) • preview before execution • full undo after Everything runs locally. No cloud, no subscriptions. Would genuinely love your feedback — especially from anyone dealing with large file sets, media pipelines, or automation workflows.

I also got sick and tired of what felt like an endless parade of subscriptions. I don't believe in the subscription model for the vast majority of use cases. People want ownership, they want value.
