Finder copy progress, always in your menu bar

Finder's progress window hides the moment you click away. Cartage keeps every copy and move in your menu bar as a percentage, bar or ring, lists each one with a cancel button, and shows a notice when a copy finishes. £9.99 once, 7-day free trial.

Hi Product Hunt, Reece here. I made Cartage.
It exists because of a very specific Mac ritual: start a big copy, click away, and Finder's progress window sinks behind everything else. Twenty minutes later you're rummaging through windows like someone who's lost their keys, trying to work out whether it finished, stalled or is still going.
Cartage puts that progress where you'll actually see it: the menu bar. A percentage, a slim bar or a ring. With several copies running, the icon shows the count and the average. Click it for every active copy and move, each with its own bar, Finder's own status line and a cancel button. A small notice pops up when a copy starts and when it finishes.
Things I cared about: no account, card or email to try it. No analytics in the app; it only goes online for updates and licence checks. £9.99 once, one licence covers 3 Macs, and the 7-day trial has every feature.
I'd love to know how you copy things: external SSDs, camera cards, a NAS? And which features you'd like Cartage to have next.
