Picmal converts, compresses, and edits images, video, audio, and PDFs on your Mac. Drop files in, and that's it. No setup, no uploads, no need to know what a codec is. It handles batches of up to 10,000 files at a time, reads RAW from most cameras, and watermarks photos and video. It does far more than convert, too: merge audio into chaptered audiobooks, combine videos, burn in subtitles, split and organize PDFs, and generate app icons for macOS, Windows, and iOS. It plugs into Finder, Shortcuts, Raycast, and the command line, and can watch folders to process files automatically. There's an advanced mode if you want control, but the defaults are already sensible, so most people won't need it. It feels native because it is. Everything runs locally, so your files never leave your machine.
