Each release ships release-verification.json: sha256s, bundled-runtime inventory (ffmpeg, libvips, libimobiledevice versions), updater-signature check, and Apple notarization ticket IDs with Gatekeeper result (v2.0.7, verified 2026-11-03). Windows builds are MS Store-signed.
The same manifest admits 'Built locally from the current working tree; sourceSha is the base commit with uncommitted changes' - no published source means no reproducibility.
Earlier 1.x DMGs were unsigned: the author's own brew tap ran 'xattr -cr' postflight to strip quarantine. Signing/notarization first evidenced at macos-v2.0.7 (2026-11-03).
Privacy policy: no analytics or third-party telemetry SDKs; app connects only for update checks, on-device model-weight downloads, and license verification. Support email published for all inquiries.
Tauri updater serves signed .tar.gz + .sig via latest.json; Windows updates are MS Store-managed.
Research notes
Free-to-paid pivot: announced Aug 2026 as '100% free to use and optional donation'; the 2.x line (Oct-Nov 2026) added a 48h trial, paid passes and a license-verification backend - despite the launch claim of 'not a single ping to the internet'.
Scope pivot: shipped Aug 2026 as a photo/media dedup + organiser (the Aug winget manifest lists no cleaner features); System Cleaner and Storage Analyser arrived with 2.x, which is what moved it into disk-cleaner territory.
Author is a self-described 17-year-old student in India (adidusi.com bio) with full public identity: Wikipedia (User:AdiDusi), GNOME translations and his other projects linked from his own site; the reddit handle is his normal ~3-year personal account - unusual transparency for the wave.
Launch-post claims that aged: 'macOS, Windows, Linux' - Linux still listed 'upcoming'; macOS builds are Apple Silicon only; Windows moved from a direct exe zip to a Microsoft Store listing (live 2026-11-01) while the author-submitted winget manifest still points at v1.1.10.
Broad surface for one maintainer: file deletion (Trash plus permanent system-cache purge), media transcoding (bundled ffmpeg), iPhone USB import (libimobiledevice), on-device photo-similarity models, and a licensing service; autosort/auto-rename/live-folder features still 'coming soon'.
Deletion safety is review-first with a History/Undo drawer for moves and renames, but the ToS states permanent deletions and system-cache purges cannot be undone.
Earliest author promotion found; pre-release announcement ('will release in the next three days' - v1.1.10 shipped 2026-08-18). Pitches a photo/media organiser; no cleaner features yet.

Marks the v2 pivot: paid passes, MS Store listing, and the new System Cleaner / Storage Analyser headline the pitch; identical text ran in several app subs the same day.
When a drive fills up, seeing what's taking up space is the easy part. Then you're opening one app to find duplicates, another to shrink a few huge videos, and Finder or Explorer to move everything you want to keep. — Problem statement
The app runs locally on Mac and Windows, with no account or file uploads. — Trust signal
