About
Consul sits in the menu bar and watches the folders you choose. Rename photo.heic to photo.jpg, or clip.mov to clip.mp4, and it converts the file on your Mac in the background, keeping a history so you can undo. It handles images, audio, video, documents and config files, and lets you set the quality and codec for each kind of conversion.
