Hey HN,

Smart Bulk Renamer can bulk rename your local & cloud files. For now, Google Drive, Dropbox & OneDrive are supported.

Local file renaming works only on Chromium-based browsers because they can handle local files using the FileSystemHandle.move API [1].

Smart Bulk Renamer is heavily inspired by the Mac app "Name Mangler" [2].

You can try it without creating an account, and I’d love to hear your feedback!
