    The expensive moment

    When “what changed?” is no longer a small question.

    A sync finishes. A backup is replaced. A client sends a new folder. FolderManifest shows what disappeared, what changed, and what arrived before the uncertainty becomes rework.

    Compare folders before the problem moves downstream

    See which files were added, removed, or modified after a sync, backup, migration, or handoff.

    Use Folder Monitor after the comparison

    Keep important folders monitored in the background and see what changed while FolderManifest runs in the tray.

    Keep a local record you can trust

    Use checksum-backed reports and saved history when filenames and timestamps are not enough proof.

    Simple by design

    Know before you trust, delete, or hand it over.

    Questions before you decide?

    What do I get for $59?

    A single-device lifetime FolderManifest license for comparing folders, monitoring them for changes, and keeping local evidence when something drifts.

    Can I try it before I buy?

    Yes. Download FolderManifest and use full access for seven days. No credit card is required; the app asks for your email when you start the trial.

    Do my files leave my computer?

    FolderManifest runs locally on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Your folder contents stay on your computer.

    What happens after I purchase?

    Checkout uses your purchase email. Launch the app and enter that email when prompted; the app retrieves and activates the license for your device.

    Can I use the app monthly instead?

    Yes. Use the full app for $7/month while your subscription is active. Cancel at any time and access continues through the end of the current billing period.

    Does it work on Mac or Linux?

    Yes. Your license works on one device running Windows, macOS (native Apple Silicon and Intel), or Linux (AppImage, .deb, or .tar.gz). Every build includes auto-update.
