DiskBuddy is the closest thing to a direct counterpart, and we will say so plainly rather than pretend otherwise: it is a fast, well-made native Mac app, and its multi-view approach to a drive is the same basic idea as ours. On the core feature list — the views, duplicates, uninstall with leftovers, snapshots, the age map and big-and-untouched files — the two are at parity.
Where they differ is around the edges that decide whether you trust a tool with deletion. Our staging model attaches a safety tier and a written, plain-English reason to every item before it can be queued, refuses to stage protected paths at all, and re-checks each item against the device and inode recorded at staging time before it deletes anything. Dropit is also signed and notarized by Apple; DiskBuddy's own FAQ walks you through Gatekeeper's "Open Anyway" because it is not.
On price and licensing: DiskBuddy is $9 for its first 300 launch copies and $49 after that, for one Mac at a time. Ours starts at $3.50, rises in published steps as copies sell, and covers two Macs at once. DiskBuddy needs no account — you paste a licence key — which is genuinely simpler than our sign-in-and-connect flow.
The last difference is platform. DiskBuddy is a pure native Swift app of about 6.2 MB; ours is an 11.3 MB universal binary with a Rust scan core and a web-technology interface. That interface is what lets every view run on this website before you download anything, and it is why Dropit ships in thirty languages and adds a live monitor that explains what is making your Mac hot.
Choose DiskBuddy if you want the proven option, prefer a small pure-native binary, or would rather paste a licence key than create an account — it is a good app and there is no reason to switch for the sake of it.

Choose Dropit if you want to try all eight views in your browser before installing, want a notarized app that covers two Macs, want every deletion to come with a written reason and a protected-path guard, want to know why your Mac is hot, or would rather start at $3.50.
They solve the same problem with the same eight views, which is where the resemblance is real. The differences are the safety model around deletion, notarization, the monitor, the browser demo, two Macs per licence and the pricing ladder.
As published on 13 September 2026, DiskBuddy is $9 for its first 300 launch copies and $49 after that, for one Mac at a time. Dropit starts at $3.50, rises in published steps, and covers two Macs.
Because it is not notarized by Apple, so Gatekeeper blocks the first launch and its FAQ explains the System Settings override. Dropit is signed and notarized, so it opens normally.
Yes. Every view on the home page of this site is the real renderer running on a demo dataset, and the downloaded app scans your drive and shows all eight views without paying anything.
