AutoRename-PDF: AI-Powered PDF Renaming and Archiving

AutoRename-PDF is a helpful tool that uses artificial intelligence and special scanning technology called Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to automatically rename and organize your PDF files. It looks for important details like company names, dates, and the type of document within each PDF. Then, it renames the file to a clear and consistent format:YYYYMMDD COMPANY DOCTYPE.pdf.

Benefits

• Works with Many AI Services:You can choose from different AI providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, and xAI. It also supports Ollama, which lets you run AI models for free on your own computer.
• Handles All Kinds of PDFs:It can read text directly from digital PDFs, use OCR to read scanned documents, and even understand image-only PDFs.
• Quick Renaming:On Windows, you can right-click on a PDF or a folder of PDFs to rename them quickly.
• Renames Many Files at Once:It can rename hundreds of PDFs at the same time and makes sure company names are written the same way every time, even if they look a little different in the documents.
• Keeps Your Data Private:If you use Ollama and PaddleOCR, the whole process can happen on your computer, so your documents never leave your machine.
