About

Overview

Peekaboo is a Finder alternative for Mac users who need a single, searchable view of every file on their machine. It targets people who hunt for files, manage disk usage, and tidy folders without moving their data off the Mac.

The app maps every file into a library by kind and source, supports plain-English queries (for example pdfs from last week over 5 MB), shows downloads grouped by origin, finds duplicates by SHA-256, and offers routines that organize or clean on a schedule. It also includes a Space Map, Clean Up with undo for every session, Mac Health scoring, startup item inspection, and a Quick Search shortcut.

Files never leave the Mac, indexing and natural-language parsing run locally, and every cleanup can be undone. Users get faster file discovery, clearer disk usage insight, and a reversible way to free space while keeping Finder available for folder workflows. Version 0.1.13, in 44 languages. €9.99 until Nov 13, 2026, then €14.99 until Nov 30, then €24.99 one-time, with 14 days free.

At a glance

Peekaboo in a Nutshell

Who is it for?

Mac users who hunt for files, manage disk usage, and tidy folders without moving data off the Mac.

Problem

Finding specific files across a Mac can be slow and confusing, and traditional Finder can lack a unified view of all files by kind and source. Users also want safe, reversible ways to free space and clean up, without risking data loss or leaving Finder workflows behind.

Solution

Peekaboo offers a single, searchable library that indexes all files locally and supports plain-English queries, enabling fast discovery, space insights, and reversible cleanups. It provides features like duplicates finding, Space Map, undoable cleanup sessions, and a Fast Search shortcut while keeping Finder available for everyday folder tasks.

What makes it unique

All indexing and natural-language parsing run locally, so files never leave the Mac. It combines a universal file library with reversible cleanup, a Space Map for disk usage insights, and a health score, all while integrating seamlessly as a Finder alternative rather than replacing it.

Maker of Peekaboo · On LaunchIt since 2026

Why I built Peekaboo
I built Peekaboo because searching a Mac still meant remembering file names and digging through folders. I wanted to just type what I was looking for in plain English — 'the invoice from last month' — and have it appear. Peekaboo maps every file into a library by kind and source, runs everything locally on the Mac, and lets you clean up duplicates and large files safely.
