Finder tags could be incredibly powerful for finding files, if only we actually kept our files reliably tagged. Most of us don't, because the OS doesn't make sustaining that habit easy.
I wanted the same reliable tagging discipline I have in Things (where every item gets tagged before leaving the Inbox) but for my files. Tagboat solves this by letting you designate specific "managed folders" to track, showing you which files need tagging, and making tagging fast and low-effort.
Key Features
- Progress tracking per folder (e.g., "97% tagged") with a focused "To Review" list
- Nested tag trees with automatic ancestor inheritance
- Optional tag inheritance from containing folders
- Custom hotkeys for instant tagging
- Clean, native Mac AppKit UI with full keyboard support
Tagboat turns file tagging into a sustainable practice that pays off in more dependable Spotlight/Finder search results.
