A disk space analyzer for Mac with two visualization modes designed to find space hogs faster than any sunburst chart. Treemap for the big picture, icicle for the deep dive. Built native for macOS.
No subscriptions. No telemetry. 100% local.
Most disk analyzers use sunburst charts. Research shows rectangular layouts are measurably better at comparing file sizes. Klarity gives you both treemap and icicle views.
Rectangles sized by file size. Your eye compares areas instantly. No angle math, no distortion at different depths.
Horizontal bars aligned on the same baseline. Compare folders at the same level by looking at bar width. Hierarchy is depth, not angle.
Encodes size as arc angle. Outer rings look visually larger even when they're not. Brendan Gregg calls them "the new pie chart."
Klarity combines powerful analysis with a beautiful interface. No bloat, no telemetry, no subscriptions. Start with what “System Data” on a Mac really is, or the guides on cleaning up Mac storage and finding large files.
See every file and folder as proportional rectangles. Instantly spot what's consuming your space at a glance. Why a treemap beats a sunburst →
Stacked horizontal bars show hierarchy depth. Compare items at the same level with surgical precision.
Double-click any folder to scan deeper. Navigate with breadcrumbs and keyboard shortcuts.
Real-time memory usage with per-app breakdown. Line chart and gauge views in your menu bar.
Switch between drives and external volumes instantly. See usage stats for each disk at a glance.
Choose from Obsidian Teal, Midnight Blue, Aurora, and more. Dark and light mode support built in.
What you see is what you get. Click any screenshot to enlarge.
Every file and folder mapped as proportional rectangles. Scan complete banner, disk overview panel, and largest items list — all at a glance.
Memory and disk health at a glance. Live timeline, top processes, and real-time gauges.
Real-time memory gauge with active, wired, and compressed breakdown. Per-process usage list built in.
Klarity lives in your menu bar. Glance at memory and disk without opening a window.
Pick any folder or volume. Klarity's optimized scanner processes 100,000+ files per minute, building a complete map of your storage.
Switch between treemap rectangles and icicle flame graphs. Both modes let you hover, click, and drill into any item for full details.
Move space hogs to the Trash or reveal them in Finder. Identify forgotten downloads, bloated caches, and stale Xcode data. Free up space in minutes. Wondering what System Data actually is?
Two visualization modes, a built-in RAM monitor, delete safety guards, and zero data collection. No other disk analyzer offers this combination.

"Finally a disk analyzer that actually looks good. The treemap view is so much more intuitive than DaisyDisk's sunburst."
"Freed up 47GB in 10 minutes. The icicle view made it crystal clear where all my Xcode caches were hiding."
"Love that it's a one-time purchase. The RAM monitor in the menu bar is a bonus I didn't expect. Replaced two apps with one."
Klarity now asks for disk access once, explains why, and remembers it. Scanning and deleting work the same everywhere — including Macintosh HD.
Klarity asks for access to your disk once, explains why it needs it, and remembers the grant per volume. No more deletes that fail outside your home folder.
Scan your whole startup disk with one click. The scanner no longer double-counts the APFS data volume, so your startup disk is counted once.
Items macOS protects now say "Finder needs an admin password" instead of failing quietly, with a Reveal in Finder button so you can finish the job yourself.
Scanning a folder Klarity can't read yet — like Downloads before any grant — now asks for access instead of showing an empty result that looks like a bug.
Refresh Interval now actually takes effect and is remembered across launches, and your menu bar preferences are remembered too.
The build number now shows after the version, e.g. 1.3 (1300), so it's clear exactly which build you're running when something needs reporting.
One app. One price. No subscriptions, no telemetry, no nonsense.
