Rationale
Substage is a Mac application that provides a natural language command bar for Finder windows. It allows users to interact with their files using natural language prompts, which are then converted into terminal commands. This directly aligns with the 'AI File Chat' and 'Conversational AI Interface' features. The website explicitly mentions actions like 'convert to 1080p mp4', 'make a jpg please', 'resize this to 1080 px tall', and 'Make a new readme.txt', which fall under 'File Editing & Renaming'. It operates on local files within Finder, confirming 'Local File System Access'. The 'How it works' section details a 'Confirm if necessary' step, which matches 'Manual Approval Workflow'. Finally, the 'Pricing' section clearly outlines 'All-inclusive subscription' and 'Bring Your Own AI' options, indicating 'Multi-tier Pricing Plans'. While it doesn't offer automated sorting rules or cloud storage integration as core features, its primary function of natural language file manipulation on local files is a strong match.
