FinderMenu — a better right-click menu

A clean, lightweight Finder context menu for Mac users who copy paths or open terminals all day

Problem

macOS Finder's built-in context menu is limited, and people want common actions like copy folder path, open in VS Code, or open in Terminal. Existing paid tools look dated and insist on running in the background, pushing users to build their own within a day. That reaction proves the demand and the poor state of current options.

Solution

A lightweight Finder extension where users tick exactly the menu items they want, including copy path, copy filename, open in a chosen editor, open Terminal in the current folder, and custom scripts. Items load on demand, no background process, and the UI follows system style with keyboard shortcuts and submenus.

Users

macOS developers, designers, and anyone who works with file paths frequently

MVP

Core items: copy path, open in VS Code, open in Terminal, custom command; toggle everything from System Settings; entries in both Finder toolbar and context menu; no persistent process, starts only when used

Revenue

Free base tier; one-time Pro unlock for custom scripts, unlimited items, and keyboard bindings

Why now

Finder extensions are well supported at the system level, and users are eager for lightweight alternatives; AI coding assistants let a solo dev ship an App Extension quickly
