About
Substage is a command bar that docks underneath your Finder window. It lets you work with your files using natural language, turning plain requests into safe, transparent terminal commands. It can rename, move, combine, convert, zip, trim, and more, all while showing exactly what it plans to run. Built by an indie game developer, Substage aims to feel fast, lightweight, and quietly helpful rather than techy or fussy.
A few things you can ask it:
“convert these to jpg”
“make a gif from this video”
“count the pages in this PDF”
“what is the real file type of this image”
“resize these to 1080p”
“download this link here”
“turn this markdown file into a PDF”
“zip these up and put the result in a new folder”
