Closed beta

Test Spaceific on your own Mac.

A closed beta for Mac developers whose disks fill up with tools and local AI models. About 10 testers go first, chosen by hand from the applications.

Apply for the betaRead the tester guide

Who it is for

  • A Mac with Apple silicon

    Intel Macs are welcome to apply too. The beta is built for them but has not been tested on one.

  • Developer tools or local AI models

    You use some of Ollama, LM Studio, Docker, npm or Xcode.

  • Short of space

    Your disk fills up and you want to know what is safe to move.

  • A Mac you can back up

    You will not test on a Mac whose important files you cannot back up.

If you are on macOS 14 or 15, you are especially useful: the beta has only run on macOS 26 so far.

What testers get

  • A free Founder licence

    When Spaceific goes on sale, testers get the Pro licence free.

  • Every feature, now

    The beta has no licence check. Everything is on.

  • A direct line

    Your feedback goes to the developer, who answers personally.

The honest state of the build

Version
0.9.0 beta 1, built 2 Nov 2026. For Apple silicon and Intel.
Not notarised
Apple has not notarised this build yet, so macOS stops it the first time you open it. You allow it once, with Open Anyway in System Settings. The guide shows how.
60 days
This build ends on 1 Jan 2027. After that it refuses every move to the Trash. Scanning, Rescue Center and Put Back keep working. A newer build gets a new date.
Tested on
macOS 26 only. macOS 14 and 15 are the target too, but the beta has not run on them yet. Intel has not been tested.
No safety limits in code
The app lets you move an item marked Protected or No rule yet, with its own extra tick. This beta does not stop you, so the guide asks you to move only items marked Rebuildable.
Not sent yet
The build is ready. Invites go out once the download page is set up.
