Privacy & Security by Design

We built Sortio with your privacy and security as our top priorities

End-to-End Encryption

Your file metadata is encrypted end-to-end, ensuring that only you can access the details of your sorted files. Learn more

Secure Authentication

We use Auth0, a leader in identity management, to ensure secure login and protect your account from unauthorized access. Learn more

Privacy-Preserving AI

Our AI-powered sorting algorithms work with encrypted file metadata and content, ensuring your data remains private while delivering smart organization. Learn more

Advanced Data Integrity Protection

Our multi-layered backup system, file checksumming, and operation journaling ensure your files remain intact and recoverable, even in rare failure scenarios. Learn more

At Sortio, we're committed to maintaining the highest standards of security and privacy. We only analyze file contents when you enable the content sorting toggle, and all your data remains safe and secure with end-to-end encryption. With our offline mode, you can ensure your data never leaves your device, providing complete privacy and control over your file organization.

Advanced Features

Designed for Productivity

Powerful tools that help you organize your digital life with ease and precision

Intelligent Sorting

Our AI-powered system organizes your files according to your instructions. Sort by file name, metadata or content with a simple toggle, and watch the magic happen.

Smart Suggestions

Receive intelligent recommendations for file organization based on your past sorting patterns and content analysis.

Offline Mode

Enable offline mode to ensure your data never leaves your device, providing complete privacy and control over your file organization.

Smart Folders

Set up dedicated folders that automatically sort and organize new files as they arrive, keeping your digital workspace tidy effortlessly.

Intelligent File Renaming

Automatically rename files based on content, context, or pattern with our AI-powered renaming tool. Toggle this feature on or off to maintain complete control.

Track every file movement with detailed logs showing what happened to each file, when it moved, and where it went. All logs are stored securely.

Rule Discovery

Browse and import community-created rulepacks tailored for your profession. Lawyers, students, designers, and more can get started instantly with pre-built sorting solutions.

AI Rule Builder

Describe how you want files sorted in plain English, and our AI builds the rules for you. No technical knowledge required—just say what you need.

Reads Your Documents

Sortio opens your files and extracts the important details — people, companies, dates, dollar amounts, document types. Every file you add makes your library smarter.

Search by Meaning, Not Filename

Stop guessing filenames. Type 'tax return 2024' or 'invoice from Acme Corp' and find it instantly — even if the file is named IMG_4032.pdf.

Know What's in Your Files

See every person, company, and dollar amount across all your documents at a glance. Perfect for tax prep, compliance checks, or just knowing where things are.

Most file organizers move files around. Sortio actually reads them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Sortio. Can't find the answer you're looking for?Contact our team

Yes! Sortio offers a free tier that includes 5 AI sorting credits, rule-based sorting with up to 5 rules, and sorting up to 50 files at a time. It's a great way to try Sortio before upgrading.

Yes, Sortio backs up your files before making any changes. You can easily revert to the original organization at any time from within the app.

Sortio offers two tiers: Free (50 AI credits to start, basic features) and Pro ($14.99/month or $99/year, 5,000 AI credits/month, unlimited rule-based sorting, watch folders, scheduled runs, and commercial license).

Yes, Sortio's Free tier includes 50 AI credits to get you started with no payment required. You can sort files, try rule-based sorting, and explore the app. When you need more credits or advanced features like watch folders and scheduled runs, upgrade to Pro at $14.99/month or $99/year.

Watch Folders (available in Pro) are folders you configure that automatically sort and organize new files as they arrive. Simply set up a Watch Folder once, and any files dropped into it will be automatically organized according to your preferences, keeping your digital workspace tidy without manual effort.

Sortio maintains detailed logs of all file operations, including what files were moved, when the movement occurred, and where they were relocated to. These logs are securely stored and provide a complete history of file organization while ensuring your privacy.

Yes, your Sortio purchase allows you to use the app on multiple devices of the same operating system. A macOS license can be used on multiple Mac computers, and a Windows license can be used on multiple Windows computers, but a macOS license cannot be used for Windows and vice versa.

Sortio uses advanced machine learning algorithms to understand the context of your files. You can toggle between sorting by file names/metadata or by analyzing file content. It then organizes them based on your instructions or preferences. AI sorting uses credits that refresh monthly on paid plans.

Yes, Sortio can work with any language. Simply include your preferred language in the prompt when providing instructions, and Sortio will organize your files according to that language's context and requirements.

Yes, Sortio offers unlimited file renaming for Standard and Pro users. You can intelligently rename files based on their content, metadata, or patterns you specify.

AI sort is capped per run so results stay fast and accurate: Free plans up to 50 files, Pro plans up to 5,000. For larger folders, Pro includes unlimited automations (deterministic rule-based sorting) that run instantly across any number of files at no AI credit cost. For a 30GB archive, automations are typically the right tool.

When you add a folder, Sortio scans your documents and extracts key information — names, companies, dates, amounts, and document types. This happens on your device. No file contents are stored in the cloud.

Yes. Sortio's smart search lets you find documents by their contents, not just filenames. Search for a person's name, a company, a dollar amount, or a document type and Sortio finds the right files instantly.

Absolutely. Sortio can help you identify every document containing sensitive information like financial data, personal details, or legal terms. Great for tax prep, regulatory compliance, or just knowing what's in your files.
