A faster way to browse images and videos on Mac
If you work with a lot of media, you already know the problem. Files live in scattered folders. Finder’s grid is slow and cramped. Preview only opens one file at a time. Reviewing a shoot, asset set, or project folder turns into constant switching and waiting.
ImageFuel was built to remove that friction.
Point the app at any folder or multiple folders and instantly see every image and video in a clean, scrollable grid. No importing. No library to manage. No waiting. It reads the files where they already live, including JPEG, PNG, video, and RAW.
What you can do
- Search by filename or path with a fast, keyboard-friendly search modal (Cmd+F)
- Filter to images only, videos only, or everything
- Sort by date, name, or a custom order you drag yourself. Each folder remembers its own sort.
- Browse RAW files from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax, and DNG
- Open any file in a fullscreen lightbox
- Crop images with live pixel dimensions
- Apply color filters to one image or an entire batch
- Inspect and strip metadata
- Rename files in bulk
- Create subfolders from the sidebar
- Send deleted files to the Trash or a folder you choose
Why it exists
We wanted a media browser that felt fast and stayed out of the way. No subscriptions. No cloud. No extra access. ImageFuel reads the folders you already have and that is it.
The interface is dark and fully keyboard-navigable because that is how real media work actually happens. Point it at a shoot, an asset dump, or a project folder and get a clean grid instead of waiting on Finder or hopping through Preview one file at a time.
Who it is for
Photographers managing shoot folders. Designers reviewing assets. Developers handling image pipelines. Anyone who regularly works with large collections of images and videos and wants a simpler, faster way to browse them.
