Mint
Mint is a macOS storage cleanup and file-organization app for developers, independent professionals and studios working on individual Macs. It maps disk use and presents caches, build output, app leftovers and supported AI-coding workspace data for review before cleanup. Users can preview folder-organization plans, apply selected moves, and run enabled Auto Care routines while Mint is running. For eligible duplicate or supported files, Optimize can reduce storage use while keeping files in place. Mint Direct also provides a command-line interface and Model Context Protocol server for storage queries and supported cleanup from scan plans; these agent tools do not expose every in-app operation. File analysis and organization run locally on the Mac. Available actions, free allowances, recovery and licensing vary by edition and operation. Requires macOS 14 or later.

Broomkit
Broomkit is a native macOS disk cleaner and app uninstaller built for transparency and safety. It scans the home folder across 16 categories — app caches, package caches, dependency folders, simulators, logs, duplicates, and more — showing every file with its full path before removal.
The free version includes a full disk scan, interactive Disk Map visualisation, large and old file finder, and path browsing — no account required. A one-time licence unlocks Reclaim and the App Uninstaller with residue cleanup.
Safety is central: all removals go to Trash, inferred items start unchecked, and no admin password is requested. Leftovers are matched by exact bundle identifier to prevent accidental deletion.
Developer machines are a focus, covering npm, pnpm, pip caches, Xcode DerivedData, simulators, and Docker data. Broomkit runs natively on macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon and Intel, is notarized by Apple, and requires no subscription.

Latent
Latent is a native macOS disk cleanup and storage-analysis app for developers and people who use local AI tools. It attributes storage to the apps and tools that created it, including model files, developer build artifacts, package caches, Docker data and app files, then labels items as recoverable, user-controlled or protected. Users can inspect space by owner, review memory use, uninstall apps and find near-duplicate AI images and videos by similarity. Cleanup actions are recorded for recovery: file removals can be restored from Trash, while items managed by external tools have recovery guidance. An optional built-in Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lets compatible assistants inspect scans and propose cleanup actions, which require user confirmation. Latent runs locally on macOS 14 or later; scanning is free and a license is required to remove files.

MoreRoom
MoreRoom is a native storage manager for Macs running macOS 15 or later. It maps disk use to help users find large files, caches, similar photos, downloads and macOS System Data. It explains items in plain language and marks them “Safe to remove” or “Review first.” Users choose what to remove; selected items go to the Trash and can be restored with Undo. Developer tools identify storage used by Xcode, Android emulators, node_modules, Docker and package-manager caches. It can hibernate inactive projects while keeping source code, and Storage Weather tracks free space and forecasts when a disk may fill up. MoreRoom examines cloud-synced files without a separate cloud sign-in, with scans running locally on the Mac. The free edition includes disk scanning and single-item cleanup; Pro adds batch cleanup and other multi-item tools. It is for Mac users, including developers managing application, project and media files.
