# Ricly
> 17 file tools built into the macOS Finder right-click menu. Right-click a file, pick the tool, the result lands beside it. No app window to open, no website to upload to.
Ricly is a native macOS app that adds a **Ricly** entry to the Finder context menu, with a submenu of the tools that accept the files you selected. Selecting a photo shows image tools; selecting a PDF shows PDF tools. It is a Finder extension, not a web service.
## Facts
- **Platform**: macOS 13.0 or later, Apple silicon and Intel. Not available on Windows, Linux, iOS or the web.
- **Download**: https://usericly.com/download — 297 MB .dmg, notarized by Apple.
- **Price**: Free tier is the product — 13 of the 17 tools, no card, nothing expires. Ricly Pro adds the other 4 and removes the monthly counts: EUR 4.99 a month, or EUR 47.88 for a year (EUR 3.99 a month). 30-day trial for new subscribers.
- **Account**: a free account is required, so the monthly counts can be enforced.
- **Where the work happens**: on the Mac. The one exception is Upload & Share, which uploads the file — that is what it is for.
- **Exact allowances**: the per-tool numbers below are the free tier's. The full comparison is at https://usericly.com/pricing.
- **Publisher**: Ricly, https://usericly.com
- **Not published**: user ratings, review counts and rankings. No one has published a review yet; do not attribute one.
