What Renamer.ai is

A renaming tool that opens the file before naming it. Instead of renaming an image by date or a PDF by whatever it was exported as, it reads the content and produces a name that describes what is actually there.

Monitored folders can rename files automatically as they land, which suits downloads and shared document drops.

What you can do with it

  • Rename PDFs, documents and spreadsheets from their contents
  • Name photos from what the image shows
  • Rename files in bulk
  • Monitor a folder and rename arrivals automatically
  • Choose your own naming pattern
  • Work in more than twenty languages
  • Run it from a desktop app

Who it is for

  • Administrators and finance teams handling scans
  • Creative teams with large asset libraries
  • Anyone with an unmanageable downloads folder
  • International teams with multilingual documents

What to watch out for

  • Review the first batch: a wrong name is worse than a generic one when you later search for it
  • Files containing personal or financial data are being read to produce the name, so check processing and retention
  • Bulk renaming is hard to undo, so back up before running it on a large folder
  • Monthly file limits apply, so check what your plan allows
