Hi product hunters, 👋 I am the founder of Filestar.
I’ve been building startups my entire life and the idea for Filestar has been in the back of my mind for a long time. I’m a productivity nerd and I love automation and low-code tools like Zapier and Airtable. I’ve been looking for a tool to automate my work with files and when I couldn’t find it I built it myself together with some colleagues.
The problem I wanted to solve was a simple way to work easier with files without the cognitive overhead of using dozens of different applications for simple tasks. I wanted a solution where I can select a couple of files and through a search engine simply type what I want to do with the files. Our tag line is "Do anything with any file".
We currently only have a Windows version, but an OSX version is on its way. We will launch a Kickstarter campaign to fund some of the development so if you’re interested, please sign up on https://bit.ly/3w8WXdD.
What we plan to add in future versions:
⚡ OSX version
⚡Trigger recipes through virtual printers
⚡Trigger recipes through custom windows context menus
⚡Output skills: Email, Zapier, HTTP POST
⚡Thousands of additional skills
Check out our public backlog to follow our development plans. https://bit.ly/2ZQvFwg

Started using it as a quick way to make custom gifs out of the videos I'd post for the VR studio I was at. It quickly become increasingly useful once I realized the broader use-cases in helping automate certain tasks. I've found the converting tool itself to be more user-friendly than the online versions or built-in of various files systems. Love it!
This tool is absolute savior! *_* Congrats for launching! The idea is amazing, and it seems to me that Filestar is making some business and creative works so much easier in just a few clicks! Bravo, and thank you for sharing it with us! Does maybe Filestar supports encrypted files as well? :)

Fantastic tool! It's there when you need to do anything. Create a webp but want mp4? No problem. Two or three clicks and its done. Oops, want to yank the audio out of the mp4 and make a wav? No problem. A click or two more and you've got a wav. It's mind-boggling what I can do with this program. Can't wait for the OSX version!

I just love products like this, that takes relentless care about stuff that I care equally little about... until they start "acting up". Brilliant in its' simplicity and impressive depth/useability. Nice.
