Smart Scan

Get a complete health check in seconds. Vervain scans your caches, logs, language files, apps, and disk usage — then gives you a clear health score with transparent recommendations.

App Uninstaller

Gently remove apps and all their leftover files — preferences, caches, support files, and containers. See exactly what will be cleaned before confirming.

Disk Analyzer

See what's filling your storage with an interactive breakdown. Drill into any folder, find your largest files, and discover what's growing on your disk.

Built on trust, not tricks.

Private by design

Vervain never sends data anywhere. No telemetry, no analytics, no account required. Everything runs entirely on your Mac.

Trash only

Nothing is permanently deleted. Every cleanup moves files to your Trash. You can restore anything until you empty it yourself.

Review before you clean

Nothing is ever removed without a review screen. Risky or low-confidence items are flagged and never selected by default.

Built in the open.

Vervain is fully open source. Read every line of code, verify what it does, and contribute improvements. For a system cleaner that asks for Full Disk Access, transparency isn't optional — it's essential.
