Smart disk and memory. For you and your agents.
Mint is a Mac app that keeps disk and memory healthy for you and the AI agents working on your Mac. It gets space back, much of it without deleting a file, frees memory from apps you aren’t using, knows what coding agents leave behind, and can run on its own. It sorts everything into four buckets: Optimizable (space back without deleting anything, as duplicate and idle files are stored more efficiently), Safe to clean (caches, logs, build output and AI coding tool leftovers that come back on their own), Yours (your own files, for you to decide) and Keep (what is in use or needed). It organizes folders by source, type, date or topic, by hand, on a schedule or as files arrive, and Auto Care keeps all of it going, inside an Ignore List you control; moves to the Trash and organize runs can be undone for 90 days. It understands in depth how AI agents such as Codex, Claude Code and Cursor use your disk and optimizes for them, and agents can use Mint through MCP and the command line (Direct edition). Direct and Setapp also free memory and uninstall apps. Each week 1 GB is free for cleanup and organizing together, Auto Care included; see Pricing for plans and editions.
In our experience, Mint’s Optimization function saved around 8GB without deleting any important files.
It also does a great job of optimizing RAM consumption.
Proof before a single click
Safe only with proof, so you can clean in one click without worry.
Checked against the original
Compared byte for byte before swapping anything in.
An agent’s worktree goes only when git keeps all of it
Its branch keeps every commit, nothing lives only in the folder, and nobody touched it for a day.
Memory for the apps at work
Mint quits what has sat idle since you were done with it. A terminal running an agent stays open.
Space back while you’re away
After ten untouched minutes on power, Mint finds the space worth getting back and takes it. Only the kinds you picked.
Your way, as new files come in
Each new file lands where you’d put it, and every move can be undone.
A workflow for you and your agents
- Keep new files in order Pick a folder and a template, and Auto Care sorts new files on your schedule while Mint is running.
- Review storage with context Before it suggests anything, Mint checks what a file is, how old it is and whether it’s still in use.
- Finds space you wouldn’t look for Mint also looks through app leftovers, build folders and AI workspaces.
- Notice what keeps growing Follow storage changes over time, so you can decide what to review before space gets tight.
