Broomkit
Broomkit is a native macOS disk cleaner and app uninstaller built for transparency and safety. It scans the home folder across 16 categories — app caches, package caches, dependency folders, simulators, logs, duplicates, and more — showing every file with its full path before removal.
The free version includes a full disk scan, interactive Disk Map visualisation, large and old file finder, and path browsing — no account required. A one-time licence unlocks Reclaim and the App Uninstaller with residue cleanup.
Safety is central: all removals go to Trash, inferred items start unchecked, and no admin password is requested. Leftovers are matched by exact bundle identifier to prevent accidental deletion.
Developer machines are a focus, covering npm, pnpm, pip caches, Xcode DerivedData, simulators, and Docker data. Broomkit runs natively on macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon and Intel, is notarized by Apple, and requires no subscription.

Nivo
Nivo is a native macOS utility for people who want to review and manage storage, applications, routine maintenance, and system activity from one desktop app. Its Clean tool scans caches, temporary files, logs, and other removable data, then displays items for review before cleanup. Uninstall identifies related support files and settings when removing applications. Optimize runs maintenance tasks such as rebuilding indexes and flushing DNS, while Analyze presents disk usage in a navigable treemap. Status shows CPU, memory, GPU, storage, network, battery, thermal information, and running processes. A built-in diagnostic report helps users inspect permissions and common system issues. The app runs on macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon and Intel Macs. File scans run locally, and the app sends no analytics or telemetry. Nivo also offers a separate open-source command-line companion that shares the cleaning engine.
