Reads the text

It reads the PDF first.

download.pdf is the name of half your Downloads folder.

AI Renamer extracts the text from each PDF and asks the model for a name based on what the document is about.

  • Text PDFs read directly
  • Scanned PDFs read as images
  • Old name used as context
Your order

Type, sender, date.

Every PDF you save follows a different pattern.

Tell it the order you want in Custom instructions and choose a case style. Underscores, dashes or spaces, it is your call.

  • Custom instructions take priority
  • 12 case styles
  • Max length you choose
Batch

A folder of PDFs at once.

Renaming 200 PDFs by hand means opening 200 PDFs.

Drop the folder on the window and every PDF is read and named in turn. Rename All applies the new names together.

How it works

Three steps. About a minute.

No rules to write and no patterns to learn. AI Renamer reads the files and you decide what to keep.

  1. 1

    Drop files or a folder

    Drag them onto the window, or pick them with Select Files and Select Folder. Images, PDFs and text files all work.

  2. 2

    AI reads every file

    Each file is read for what it shows or says and gets a new name in a few seconds, written the way you set it up.

  3. 3

    Check, then rename all

    Nothing changes on disk until you press Rename All. Not happy with one name? Ask for another.
