Use cases
Real device problems we solve
Archives that will not open cleanly. A folder you want to clean without scanning the whole disk. Fans that will not quiet down. A recording that needs the screen and a face without an OBS setup. A worksheet lighter than a spreadsheet, or photos you do not want to delete by accident — each use case points to a documented product capability with clear limits.
