Compare Free and ProA few things you might be wondering.
Can I use it without an AI key?
Yes. Date and Original Filename and other local rules use dates, counters, and file attributes without AI. Configure your own provider and a compatible model when you want to use AI parts.
Does it rename my files immediately?
No. Generating names gives you a preview. Applying a rename is a separate step, with checks for conflicting names and occupied paths.
Can I undo a rename?
You can undo eligible changes from rename history. If another app has moved or changed the files, safety checks may prevent a restore.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free supports up to 10 files per generation batch. Pro removes the batch cap and offers an explicitly started 14-day trial. Third-party AI fees are separate on both plans.
