One-liner

Cosmil is a fast, beautiful file manager for macOS — a Finder alternative with multi-pane layouts, real cut and paste, advanced search, and a translucent UI that blends into your desktop. One-time purchase, no subscription, no telemetry.

Full paragraph

Cosmil is an independently developed file manager for macOS, built as a full replacement for Finder. It pairs a polished, translucent interface with the features Finder never shipped: as many resizable panes as fit on your monitor, real cut and paste, multi-filter search, custom sidebar categories, a drag-and-drop dropzone for pausing file moves mid-flight, and detailed file-conflict resolution. The backend is written entirely in Rust via Tauri 2.0, so it stays fast and memory-safe, and the app sends no data anywhere — its only network requests are license verification and update checks. Cosmil is a one-time purchase, sold directly at cosmil.app.

Good details for a story

Cosmil started as a private beta in October 2023 and shipped 1.0 in July 2024; version 2.0 is a near-total rework — new frontend, virtualized rendering for large directories, and native macOS file icons.
The app is deliberately sold outside the Mac App Store: its signature window vibrancy relies on APIs the App Store doesn't allow.
There is no telemetry of any kind. The only network requests the app ever makes are license verification and update checks.
Cosmil's application code is designed, written, and debugged by a person, rather than generated wholesale and shipped unexamined.
