Does this sound familiar?

"My Mac has become so slow."
"It keeps telling me my disk is almost full."
"I don't know what I can delete without breaking something."
"I tried a cleaning app, but I didn't know what to do with what it showed me."

Mac Brilliance takes care of all of this, without you needing to be an expert.

How it works

Three steps. About a minute.

1

Open the app

A friendly guide called NEXUS welcomes you and explains everything as you go.

2

Press "Polish my Mac"

It checks your whole Mac and gives it a simple score out of 100, like a health check.

3

Say yes, or not now

You see exactly what it suggests. Nothing changes until you agree.

What it does for you

Four things that keep your Mac shining

Like a jeweler checks a diamond, Mac Brilliance checks four things on your Mac.

Frees up space

Removes the hidden leftovers your apps pile up over time. They are safe to remove, and your apps simply make fresh ones.

Clarity

Makes it faster

Shows what is slowing your Mac down right now, and helps you speed it up with one click.

Cut

Finds big and double files

Spots huge old files and exact copies of the same file. You decide what goes. Nothing is chosen for you.

Carat

Keeps it protected

Checks that your Mac's built-in protections are switched on, and tells you simply if something needs your attention.

Setting
Your own IT expert, NEXUS

The IT expert you never had, explaining everything like a patient friend

You don't need to know anything about computers. NEXUS does that part. After each check, he tells you in a few plain words what he found, what to do first, and why it is safe.

NEXUS, your guide

"I found 18.6 GB on your Mac. 3.7 GB can go safely right now, in one click, and I'll show you the 14.9 GB of big files to review."

"I'm not an IT specialist. My Mac is getting a bit old, but I still use it every day, and it was always short of space. Other cleaning apps showed me long lists, and I never knew what to do. I wanted something easy to understand that tells me what to do. That's NEXUS: he shows me right away what is necessary."

Helpful extras, just as simple

Remove apps completely

When you delete an app, pieces of it often stay behind. Mac Brilliance removes everything, and tells you when your apps have updates.

See what fills your Mac

A clear picture of what takes up space, on your Mac, in Dropbox and on your backup drive. Each item comes with advice: keep it, remove it, or move it to your drive.

Tidy your folders

Finds empty folders and copies of the same folder, and suggests a neater order. Changed your mind? Undo it with one click.

A gentle weekly reminder

Once a week, a small message shows your score and whether anything needs doing. You never have to remember.

Is it safe?

Yes. Your files are in good hands.

  • You decide. It always shows you the list first and waits for your yes.
  • You can always get things back. Your files go to the Trash first, so you can restore them. Only app caches and logs, which apps rebuild by themselves, are cleared directly.
  • Your important folders are protected. Your documents and photos are never picked automatically.
  • Private by design. Everything happens on your own Mac. No account, nothing sent online.
  • Checked by Apple. Apple has verified the app, so it opens without any warning.

Your questions

I'm not good with computers. Can I use it?

Yes, it was made for you. You press one button, read NEXUS's short explanation, and choose yes or not now.

Could I lose something important?

No. Your documents and photos are never chosen for you, and any file removed goes to the Trash first, so you can put it back. Only app caches and logs, which rebuild themselves, are cleared directly.

Why does it ask for permission when I first open it?

Your Mac protects your folders and asks before any app looks inside them. You give permission once, the app shows you where, and then it stops asking.

Will it work on my Mac?

It works on Macs from about 2015 onward that run macOS 12 Monterey or later. To check, open the Apple menu and choose About This Mac.

What do I get for free, and what does the $39 add?

The scan, the score and NEXUS's advice are free, so you see exactly what your Mac needs first. The one-time $39 USD lets Mac Brilliance do it for you, on up to 3 Macs. If it isn't right for you within 30 days, you get your money back.

Is it available in Japanese?

Yes. You can switch between English and 日本語 at any time.

Your Mac is already beautiful. Give it one minute to shine again.

One button, a clear score, and nothing changes without your yes.
