Rendered by Finder
Context Menu Companion uses the Finder Sync Extension API. The menu is drawn by Finder itself — matching your system theme, Dark Mode, and Liquid Glass on macOS 26.
Finder Extension for macOS
New file
Right where
you need it
A native right-click shortcut for creating files in Finder. Fast, quiet, and exactly where you need it.
One gesture, zero detours
Create files
right where you work
Right-click any folder in Finder, choose a template, and keep moving. Context Menu Companion adds a native New submenu through Apple's own Finder Sync API — so the shortcut feels like it was always there.
Why Context Menu Companion
Built for Finder
Feels like Finder
Seven languages
English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, 日本語, 한국어, Italiano, and ไทย from day one. The menu speaks the language your system speaks.
Works offline
No account. No cloud sync. No telemetry. Context Menu Companion runs entirely on your machine and never phones home.
Permission-aware
When macOS restricts access to a folder, Context Menu Companion tells you what happened and walks you through granting permission.
Useful templates
Plain text, Markdown, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), and folders. Each template is minimal, valid, and ready to rename.
One-click extras
Open Terminal here. Copy path to clipboard. Small utilities that belong in the right-click menu.
