    Slowing footage down is easy. Doing it without choppy steps, smeared edges and strange warping is the hard part, especially when the subject moves fast. Bullet Time is a plugin by Blace Plugins, sold through aescripts, that uses AI frame interpolation built for large motion. It creates the in between frames your camera never shot, so a normal clip can play as smooth slow motion or stretch to a new timing.

    Key Features

    • Creates new frames with AI interpolation for smooth slow motion
    • Handles large and fast motion that breaks simpler retiming tools
    • Stretches time so clips fit a new duration without jerky playback
    • Offers settings to tune fidelity and clean up problem areas
    • Works inside After Effects and Premiere Pro on your timeline

    How to Download

    1. Use the download button on this page to get the installer for your Mac.
    2. Run the installer and follow the steps for your host application.
    3. Open your editor, apply Bullet Time to a clip, and set the speed or stretch you need.

    System Requirements

    Bullet Time needs a supported version of Adobe After Effects or Premiere Pro on macOS. AI frame creation is heavy work, so a recent Mac with a strong graphics card processes long clips much faster.

    FAQs

    Can Bullet Time fix footage shot at a low frame rate?

    It can help a lot by inventing plausible in between frames, but results depend on the shot. Fast crossing motion and busy backgrounds are always the hardest cases.

    Does it work for time stretching as well as slow motion?

    Yes. The same interpolation engine can stretch a clip to a longer duration, which is handy when a shot must land on a music beat or a title.

    Is my footage sent to the cloud?

    Blace tools run their AI locally on your machine, so your clips stay on your Mac during processing.

    MacCleanse is a cleanup utility from Koingo Software for Macs that feel full and cluttered. Over months of use, caches grow, logs pile up and apps leave files behind long after you delete them. MacCleanse gathers those jobs into guided scans, shows exactly what it plans to remove and lets you untick anything worth keeping. Used with care, it is a tidy way to reclaim space and clear private traces like browsing histories. Updated Aug 17, 2026.

    Key Features

    • Scans caches, logs and other space wasting system clutter
    • Clears web and app histories for better privacy control
    • Removes unused language files that apps carry along
    • Custom scans and schedules you can shape to your habits
    • Detailed removal lists shown before anything is deleted

    How to Download

    1. Start from Download from the official site or the Koingo site to get the current Mac build.
    2. Open the downloaded file and move MacCleanse into your Applications folder.
    3. Launch the app, run a first scan and review every item before cleaning.

    System Requirements

    MacCleanse needs a Mac running a recent version of macOS; older builds for older systems are listed by the developer. Grant it the disk access macOS requests, or some cleanup areas will stay out of reach.

    FAQs

    Is it safe to delete everything a scan finds?

    Review the list first. The app shows what it intends to remove and lets you untick items, which is the sensible way to use any cleaning tool.

    How much space will I get back?

    It varies. A long uncleaned Mac can hold gigabytes of caches and leftovers, while a tidy machine may free only a little.

    Does MacCleanse remove apps as well?

    It helps clear files that uninstalled apps leave behind, which is where much hidden clutter comes from.

    Exporting from Adobe apps often means huge files, missing codecs or a detour through other tools. AfterCodecs, made by Autokroma, plugs straight into After Effects, Premiere Pro and Media Encoder and adds the export formats editors actually ask for. You can render ProRes, H.264, H.265 and HAP files in MP4 or MOV wrappers, with settings that balance quality and file size, and without relying on old QuickTime components.

    Key Features

    • Exports ProRes, H.264, H.265 and HAP codecs from Adobe apps
    • Works inside After Effects, Premiere Pro and Media Encoder
    • Saves renders as MP4 or MOV files with no QuickTime needed
    • Supports MultiRender Markers to batch export sections in Premiere Pro
    • Shows render progress in the taskbar icon while After Effects works

    How to Download

    1. Get the installer from Download from the official site and pick the macOS version.
    2. Run the installer and let it add AfterCodecs to your Adobe apps.
    3. Open your Adobe app, choose AfterCodecs in the export settings, and render.

    System Requirements

    The vendor lists macOS 11.0 Big Sur as the minimum for the current version, running on Intel or Apple Silicon Macs, with a supported Adobe Creative Cloud app such as After Effects, Premiere Pro or Media Encoder installed.

    FAQs

    Why use AfterCodecs instead of the built in exporters?

    It fills gaps the built in tools leave, such as ProRes on demand, HAP for live visuals, and smaller H.264 and H.265 files.

    Does one licence cover all three Adobe apps?

    AfterCodecs is one exporter suite for the Adobe apps it supports. Check the licence terms on the official page for how many machines you can use.

    Can I try it before buying?

    The vendor offers a trial mode, and the installer writes a short note file with your exports that explains which licence removes the trial limits.

    CloverBootloader is an EFI boot loader best known in the custom Mac build community. It sits between your firmware and your operating system, shows a boot menu and applies the settings and patches your hardware needs to start macOS, Windows or Linux from one machine. It is a tool for patient tinkerers rather than casual users, since its power lives in a detailed configuration file that rewards careful reading and small, tested changes. Updated Aug 17, 2026.

    Key Features

    • Boots macOS alongside Windows and Linux on one machine
    • Graphical boot menu with themes and boot options
    • Deep configuration for hardware specific boot settings
    • Support for ACPI patching and kernel level adjustments
    • Works on both UEFI systems and older legacy BIOS setups

    How to Download

    1. Open the official project releases page and get the Mac installer package for this release.
    2. Back up your current EFI folder before you change anything.
    3. Run the installer to a test USB drive first and boot from it to verify your setup.

    System Requirements

    CloverBootloader runs at boot time rather than inside macOS, so it needs compatible PC hardware with UEFI or legacy BIOS firmware. A spare USB drive for test boots is strongly advised for any custom build.

    FAQs

    Is CloverBootloader beginner friendly?

    Honestly, no. It assumes you are comfortable editing configuration files and recovering a system that fails to boot. Beginners should read community guides first.

    What is the config file for?

    The configuration file tells Clover which patches, drivers and boot arguments your hardware needs. Most boot problems trace back to a setting inside it.

    Should I update Clover on a working system?

    Only with a backup and a tested fallback boot drive. If your machine boots well today, update on a test drive first and keep the working setup untouched.

    macOS hides a lot of its machinery, which is fine until something breaks. TinkerTool System is a long running collection of administration tools built for exactly those moments. It bundles maintenance jobs, system checks and repair helpers into one careful app. You can review startup jobs, inspect hardware details that System Information leaves out, clear caches in a controlled way, check Time Machine behaviour and even build macOS install media without touching the App Store.

    Key Features

    • Maintenance tools clear caches and run system upkeep jobs safely
    • Overview of startup jobs shows what launches with your Mac
    • Hardware details go beyond what System Information displays
    • Time Machine checks reveal what changed between backup snapshots
    • Creates macOS install media from official installer apps

    How to Download

    1. Visit the product page and Download from the official site to get the current build.
    2. Open the download and place the app in your Applications folder.
    3. Launch it, try the evaluation mode and explore the panes that match your task.

    System Requirements

    This generation of TinkerTool System is built for macOS 15 Sequoia and macOS 26 Tahoe. Many tasks need an administrator account, since the app separates its interface from the privileged work it performs.

    FAQs

    Is TinkerTool System the same as TinkerTool?

    No. TinkerTool is the free sister app for personal preference settings, while TinkerTool System is the administration tool with maintenance and repair functions.

    Can I try it before buying?

    Yes. The vendor offers an evaluation mode with full function for a limited number of launches, so you can test it before buying a license.

    Is it safe for beginners?

    Its tools are meant for administration tasks, so read the built in help for any job you do not understand before you run it.

    Rendering a clip flat is a one way door in most editors. Once a shot has been rendered and replaced, the effects and layers underneath are locked away, and a small client change can mean rebuilding the whole shot. Unrender is a small utility sold through aescripts that tackles that moment. It helps bring rendered clips back to their original editable state.

    Key Features

    • Restores rendered clips back toward their original editable form
    • Helps recover compositions hidden under a render and replace step
    • Lets you change effects and settings after a client review
    • Saves the time of rebuilding a finished shot from scratch
    • Fits into a normal After Effects project workflow on Mac

    How to Download

    1. Use the download button on this page to get the installer for your Mac.
    2. Run the installer or follow the included steps for your host application.
    3. Open your project, select a rendered clip, and run Unrender before making your changes.

    System Requirements

    Unrender works with projects on macOS inside its supported host application, so you need that host app installed and a Mac that meets its requirements. Keep your original project files and footage in place, as restored clips still depend on them.

    FAQs

    When would I need Unrender?

    When a shot was flattened to save render time and someone later asks for a change. Restoring the editable version is far faster than rebuilding it.

    Does it bring back deleted source files?

    No tool can restore files that are gone from your disk. Unrender works with the project and media you still have, so keep your project archive complete.

    Should I save a copy before using it?

    Yes. Save a version of the project first, the same good habit that applies before any big project wide change.

    MacPilot from Koingo Software puts the hidden side of macOS into a normal, friendly window. macOS carries hundreds of settings that Apple never shows in System Settings, and reaching them usually means memorising terminal commands. MacPilot gathers over a thousand of those options into tidy sections for Finder, the Dock, Safari and more, adds maintenance and network tools, and lets you undo a change just as easily as you made it. Updated Aug 17, 2026.

    Key Features

    • Unlocks over 1200 hidden macOS settings and features
    • Finder and Dock tweaks like showing hidden files
    • Maintenance tools for caches, logs and system databases
    • Network utility with ping, port scan and DNS lookups
    • Save points and reset options that undo your changes

    How to Download

    1. Use Download from the official site to get the current Mac build.
    2. Open the downloaded file and move MacPilot into your Applications folder.
    3. Launch the app, browse a section and change one setting at a time.

    System Requirements

    The current MacPilot line needs macOS 13 or later, and the developer lists older builds for older systems. Some settings only apply to certain macOS versions, and the app notes those as you browse.

    FAQs

    Do I need to know terminal commands?

    No. That is the whole point of the app. Every tweak is a switch, menu or field in a window, with on screen help explaining what it does.

    Can I undo a change I regret?

    Yes. You can reset a single feature to its default or use save points to return a whole setup to how it was before your changes.

    Is there a trial version?

    Koingo offers a time limited trial from its site, so you can explore the settings on your own Mac before deciding on a license.

    Downloads folders have a way of becoming storage swamps. Receipts sit next to installers, screenshots bury documents, and finding anything takes a scroll and a sigh. Refolder, from MacPaw, offers a calmer way to clean up. It scans a folder, studies names, types and patterns, then proposes where each file should go. Nothing moves until you look at the plan and approve it. After that it can watch folders for new arrivals and rename files with rules you set.

    Key Features

    • Scans a folder and proposes a clear layout for its files
    • Preview first, so nothing moves until you approve the plan
    • Watch mode keeps an eye on folders as new files arrive
    • Rename tools apply rules to files and folders in bulk
    • Activity feed shows what changed so moves stay transparent

    How to Download

    1. Open the listing and Download from the official site to reach Refolder.
    2. Install Setapp on your Mac if you do not already use it.
    3. Install Refolder from Setapp, pick a messy folder and review its first proposal.

    System Requirements

    Refolder needs macOS 15 or later, and an active Setapp membership is required to use it. Some smart sorting options use cloud processing, as the vendor explains in its terms.

    FAQs

    Does Refolder move files without asking?

    The app proposes a layout first and waits for your confirmation before it reorganises a folder.

    Why is it only on Setapp?

    MacPaw distributes Refolder exclusively through Setapp, as its terms of service state. That means billing and trials follow Setapp rules rather than a separate store purchase.

    Can it keep my Downloads folder tidy on its own?

    The Watch feature monitors folders you choose and suggests sorting for new arrivals, and you can review changes in the activity feed.

    A logo in shot can date a video overnight. A sponsor changes, a brand refreshes, or the same advert must run for a different client, and suddenly every pack shot needs work. LogoSwap is a Blace Plugins tool, sold through aescripts, that uses AI to remove a logo from moving footage and replace it with a new one, so content can be rebranded instead of reshot.

    Key Features

    • Removes logos from footage with AI driven cleanup of the area
    • Replaces an old logo with a new brand mark in the same shot
    • Tracks the surface as the camera and subject move through the scene
    • Helps produce regional and client versions from one master edit
    • Runs its AI locally on your Mac with no cloud upload of footage

    How to Download

    1. Use the download button on this page to get the installer for your Mac.
    2. Run the installer and follow the steps for After Effects.
    3. Open After Effects, apply LogoSwap to the shot, and mark the logo to remove or replace.

    System Requirements

    LogoSwap runs inside a supported version of Adobe After Effects on macOS. AI video processing is demanding, so a recent Mac with a capable graphics card will render long shots more smoothly.

    FAQs

    Can LogoSwap remove a logo completely?

    Yes, removal is one of its main jobs. It rebuilds the area where the logo sat so the shot can play clean, though busy moving backgrounds remain the hardest cases.

    What kind of shots work best?

    Logos on fairly clear surfaces, such as signs, screens, packaging and clothing, tend to give the cleanest results, especially when the logo stays visible and in focus.

    Is this only for advertising work?

    No. Editors also use it to clear brand marks from stock style footage, update event videos, and fix shots where a logo was never cleared for use.
