Sound familiar?

Your Mac is full. Of what, exactly?

“Your disk is almost full.”

You got the 256 GB model. It felt like plenty. Now you're deleting vacation photos just to install a macOS update.

Downloads: 2,316 items.

Screenshot 2026-03-14 at 11.42.07.png. invoice (3).pdf. final_FINAL_v2.zip. You'll sort it out this weekend. (You won't. Nobody does.)

Spotlight: “No results.”

Your passport photo is right there. It's just called IMG_4821.HEIC. Spotlight searches names. You remember what things are.

It's not you. Your Mac just doesn't know what your files are. Vast does.

02 · Tidy

Downloads that tidy themselves.

Vast sorts files by what they are (invoices, screenshots, installers, photos) and organizes your Downloads folder and Desktop right where they live. You see the whole plan before anything moves. Like it? Apply. Change your mind next month? One click puts every file back.

  • Works in place. No import, no hidden library.
  • Preview every move before it happens.
  • Auto-tidy Downloads and Desktop, once you've had time to use new files.
  • Undo a whole plan anytime, from Activity.
Tidy Downloads · 42 files
Plan ready · 42 files → 5 folders

03 · Free up space

Get your gigs back. Without the gamble.

When your Mac storage is full, Vast quietly finds what's hogging the disk and tells you why each thing can go. You choose what leaves: to the Trash, or up to your encrypted cloud. Change your mind? It all comes back with one click.

Developers: yes, it finds the node_modules folders from projects you forgot existed. And DerivedData. Mostly DerivedData.

Your Downloads folder won't tidy itself. Unless you have Vast.

04 · Ask

Ask your files anything.

“How much did I spend on electricity this year?” Vast finds the bills, does the math, and shows you exactly which files the answer came from. Ask it to pull a trip together or clean up an old project and it drafts a plan, then waits for your okay. It never acts on its own.

  • Answers with sources you can open
  • Proposes plans, never runs them without you
  • 30 questions a month on the free plan

All the little things, done nicely.

Vast Cloud

Offload it. Don't delete it.

For the stuff you don't need on your Mac but can't bear to lose. Vast Cloud shows up in Finder like any drive and is end-to-end encrypted on your Mac before a single byte leaves. We can't read your files. Or even their names.

5 GB free · up to 1 TB

Links

Links worth opening.

Send a 20 GB video with a page as nice as what's inside. Or send a receive link and let anyone drop files into your Vast. You approve what comes in.

Plus & Pro

Menu bar

Always one click away.

Search, ask, and check your disk from the menu bar.

Native

Not a website in a trench coat.

Built native for Apple silicon. Launches fast, sips memory, looks like it belongs. No Electron.

Activity

Every change, on the record.

Activity lists everything Vast did, with an undo button next to each one.

iCloud

Plays nice with iCloud.

Vast leaves iCloud-only files alone and warns you before anything would vanish from your other devices.

How it works

Three steps to a calmer Mac.

  1. Pick your folders.

    Choose what Vast can see: Desktop, Documents, Downloads, whatever you like. Your files stay exactly where they are.

  2. Let it read the room.

    In the background, Vast learns what each file is: a receipt, a passport scan, a contract, a screenshot. To understand one, it sends only a text snippet or a small preview, and we never store it.

  3. Ask, tidy, breathe.

    Tap the Command key twice to find anything, approve a tidy-up, clear some space. Undo is always one click away.

Privacy

Your key. Your files. Your call.

Everything you put in Vast Cloud is encrypted on your Mac with a key only you hold. We can't see your files or their names. When Vast uses AI to understand a file, it sends only what's needed. We don't store it, and nothing is used for training.

  • Encrypted on your Mac. AES-256, before anything is uploaded.
  • A recovery key you print. We can't reset it. That's the point.
  • Never used for training. Not your files, not your questions. Not by us, not by our AI provider.
  • Just enough, never kept by us. A text snippet or small preview, sent once and not stored on our servers. We don't log it.
  • Nothing moves without you. Plans first. Undo always.
  • A policy you can actually read. Short, plain English. Read it →

Questions, answered.

Will Vast move or delete files without asking?

Never. Every tidy-up and cleanup starts as a plan you can review, and nothing happens until you approve it. Anything Vast does can be undone with one click from Activity. If you turn on auto-tidy for Downloads, those moves show up in Activity too, each with its own undo.

Do I have to upload my files?

No. Vast understands and organizes files right where they are, on your Mac. Vast Cloud is optional, for things you want off your disk without deleting them.

Can you see my files? What does the AI see?

Files in Vast Cloud are encrypted on your Mac with a key only you have, so we can't read them or their names. To understand a file, Vast sends only the text it needs (or a small preview) through our server to the AI model (Google Gemini, paid tier). We don't store or log it, and it's never used to train AI.

How is this different from Spotlight?

Spotlight is great at names and keywords. Vast understands meaning: it knows IMG_4821.HEIC is your passport and scan_0042.pdf is your lease. And Spotlight doesn't tidy your Desktop or tell you which 16.8 GB of video you'll never watch again.

Is Vast a Mac cleaner?

It frees up space like one, minus the scare tactics. Vast shows why each file can go (duplicate, used installer, not opened in a year), lets you offload instead of delete, and keeps an undo for everything. It's also a search engine, an organizer and an assistant for your files.

What happens when I use up my free AI analyses?

Nothing stops working. Search by name and content, rule-based tidying and the free-space tools stay free. Vast spends your 300 monthly AI analyses on the files you've used or changed most recently; the rest wait for next month's allowance, or for an upgrade.

Does it work with iCloud Drive?

Yes, carefully. Vast leaves iCloud-only files alone and warns you when deleting something would remove it from all your devices.

Which Macs does it support?

Macs with Apple silicon (M1 or later) running macOS 26 or later. Intel Macs aren't supported.

When can I try it?

We're opening the beta in small waves so we can fix things fast and keep it calm. Join the list and we'll email you when your wave opens.

What if I lose my recovery key?

If you lose every Mac and your recovery key, nobody can decrypt your cloud files. Not you, not us. That's why we ask you to print it.

Your Mac called. It wants its space back.

The beta opens in small waves. Leave your email and we'll save you a spot in the next one.
