Native macOS, privacy-focused apps

Delightful apps for Mac people.

Avocet is a UK-based studio building small, focused tools for people who live on their Mac. Headed up by Milo (ex. Apple).

We sweat the details, creating apps that never get in your way, and make your day that little bit better.

Apps

Three focused tools, built with care.

Oyster Catcher

oystercatcher.app

Stay compliant and catch PII and secrets that shouldn’t be there. Scans your Mac in realtime for API keys, tokens, and personal data, so you can remove them before they leak.
