Find any file.
On any drive.
Without plugging it in.

Drive Catalog keeps a searchable list of every external drive you own, so you always know where your footage is.

Scan in Chrome or Edge on a computer. Search from any device.

Set up a drive once.
Search it forever.

  1. 1

    Scan

    Plug in a drive and choose it. Only names, sizes and dates are read, so your files are never opened.

  2. 2

    Unplug

    Put the drive back on the shelf. Its list stays in your account, ready to search.

  3. 3

    Find

    Type a few letters. See the file, the folder and exactly which drive to pick up.

Everything your drives never told you.

Results as you type

Search runs on your own device, across every drive at once. Match words in file names and the folders above them.

Browse like Finder

Column and list views, sizes, dates and Get Info, for a drive sitting in a drawer.

Drive photos

Add up to 12 photos to each drive, so you can spot the right one on a crowded shelf.

Who has it

Track the owner, who holds a drive now, and everyone who held it before.

Find duplicates

See files that exist on several drives and how much space you could free. Nothing is ever deleted for you.

Password lock

Lock a client's drive and its list is encrypted in your browser before it is saved. Without the password, its folders and files can't be read, not even by us.

Names, sizes and dates.
Never your files.

A scan reads the list of what is on a drive. It does not open your files or upload them. Your footage stays on your drive, and the list is private to your account.

Saved to your account
File and folder names, sizes, dates, and any Finder colours and tags Chrome can read
Added to your drive
One tiny hidden file, so the drive is recognized after a rename
Never read or copied
The contents of your videos, photos and projects

Early access

Questions

Do I need the drive plugged in to search it?

No. Plug it in once to scan it. After that you can search and browse its list with the drive unplugged.

Which browsers work?

Scanning needs Chrome or Edge on a computer, because they can read a drive's folders. Searching and browsing work in any modern browser, including on your phone.

What happens when I add new files to a drive?

Plug it in and press Update. The search shows what was on a drive at its last scan.

What if I rename a drive?

It is still recognized, thanks to a tiny hidden file added when you first scan it.

Is the free space exact?

It is an estimate, because a browser can't ask a drive directly. You can type in the exact numbers or paste them from your Mac.
