Your Files Stay On Your Computer

Unlike cloud-based renamers, we process your ZIP entirely in-browser. The file never gets extracted to our servers. We read the archive in memory, apply your rules, and send you the renamed ZIP—all client-side.

Pattern Variables

Build complex rename patterns with 6 variables:

{parent}_{date}_{index}_{name}

Input: photos/IMG_1234.jpg
Output: photos/photos_2026-02-05_001_IMG_1234.jpg

Multi-Scope Rules

Apply different rules to different file types:

.jpg → lowercase + numbering
.pdf → add date prefix
folders/ → remove special chars

Exclude Mode

Rename everything EXCEPT certain extensions:

Rule: Lowercase all files
Scope: Extension = .php
Exclude: ✅ Checked

Result: All files become lowercase EXCEPT .php files

Folder Hierarchy

We understand your folder structure:

RAW/IMG_001.jpg → RAW_IMG_001.jpg
EDITED/IMG_001.jpg → EDITED_IMG_001.jpg

Use {parent} variable to include folder names

Why Extract When You Can Rename Directly?

Stop wasting time with the extract → rename → re-zip workflow

Manual Extraction

1. Right-click ZIP → Extract (wait 30-120s)
2. Open folder, select files manually
3. Use OS renamer or bulk tool
4. Select all → right-click → Compress
5. Wait for re-zipping (30-120s)
6. Delete temp folder (or forget to)
~5-10 minutes
Plus risk of data loss or wrong compression

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ZipRenamer

Is it free?

Yes! ZipRenamer is 100% free during beta. All features including pattern variables, advanced scoping, and unlimited files are available at no cost.

How is this different from extracting my ZIP?

When you extract a ZIP, you're creating thousands of files on disk, which takes time and uses storage. ZipRenamer processes your archive in-memory—we read the structure, apply renames, and build a new ZIP without ever writing files to disk. It's faster, safer, and requires zero cleanup.

Can I rename folders too?

Absolutely! Use the "All Folders" scope or target specific folder names. You can rename both files AND folders in the same rule group, or create separate rules for each.

Is my data secure?

Your files never leave your computer. We process everything client-side in your browser. The ZIP is briefly uploaded to our server for renaming, then immediately deleted. We don't store, log, or have any access to your file contents. GDPR compliant.

Do I need to install anything?

No installation required. ZipRenamer runs entirely in your browser. Just visit the site, drop your ZIP, and start renaming. Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

What are pattern variables?

Pattern variables let you build dynamic filenames using placeholders:

  • {name} - original filename
  • {index} - sequential number (001, 002...)
  • {parent} - parent folder name
  • {date} - current date (YYYY-MM-DD)
  • {ext} - file extension
  • {depth} - folder depth level
