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.

- 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 was written by a human — it is not AI generated.
