Organize
Visual workflows, powerful rules, folder monitoring, and on-device AI categorization sort files automatically — the moment they land.
Clean
Duplicates, large files, caches, and forgotten archives, with the biggest offenders first — so you reclaim real gigabytes in seconds.
Protect
Hardware-backed encryption with Touch ID or a YubiKey, and SSD-aware secure deletion when a file needs to be gone for good.
Now on Windows · Beta
Organizing, deduplication, encryption, Secure Delete and the on-device AI all run natively on Windows 10 and 11 — plus Disk Shred and free-space overwrite, built for how Windows storage actually behaves.
Beta only for now. There is no stable Windows release yet. What that means
Hardware Encryption
VaultSort is the only desktop app that locks your files to a physical hardware key. Tap your YubiKey — or, on a Mac, use Touch ID — and the file is sealed with AES-256-GCM encryption. No passwords, no cloud, no account.
Your key is derived from a secret sealed inside your YubiKey chip or Apple's Secure Enclave — and nothing else can produce it. Register multiple keys so you're never locked out. See VaultSort's hardware key support →
Organize
Build automation visually instead of stacking fragile rules — drag, connect, and see exactly what will happen before anything moves.
Clean
Space Saver surfaces reclaimable caches, temp files, logs, and browser clutter — no digging through hidden folders.
Protect
VaultSort detects whether you are on an SSD or HDD and applies the right secure-deletion method — no legacy overwrite tricks that fail on modern storage.
Hardware-bound encryption
Encrypt with Touch ID or a YubiKey — protection only your hardware can unlock, with no password to remember or leak.
VaultSort's V4 encryption ties every file to hardware you hold — a security key in your pocket, or your Mac's Secure Enclave — and documents the whole design in a free whitepaper.
Transparent by design
A proprietary “encrypted format” with no documentation is a fair thing to be skeptical of. So we wrote it all down — the algorithms, the key-derivation chain, the file layout, the threat model, and the parts we deliberately don't claim to solve.
One app, not five
VaultSort combines cleanup, organization, automation, security, and encryption in one native desktop app — one purchase instead of a stack of separate subscriptions.
Replace the bundle of cleanup, duplicate-finder, automation, and encryption utilities you would otherwise juggle — and keep everything local-first on your own machine.
Real product proof
VaultSort is built for people who care how their computer behaves, how their files stay organized, and whether their cleanup tools are actually trustworthy.
