FileMap Desktop
What FileMap Desktop is
FileMap Desktop adds an infinite, zoomable visual workspace to an existing computer desktop. It displays a live desktop view and reflects file moves between the desktop and FileMap Desktop. Users can arrange, cluster, and explore files on the canvas, creating a spatial way to navigate content. The Starter plan lists local desktop sync, an infinite canvas, and basic visual clustering, but no Starter price is shown. FileMap Studio is described for design teams, architecture studios, and research teams who think spatially. Studio adds real-time collaboration, so teammates’ changes appear in the same visual workspace, along with Google Drive integration and advanced previews for 3D and PSD files. FileMap says it can also integrate with OneDrive, within permissions users grant. Metadata and derived previews are stored on its servers, while Google Drive file content stays in Google Drive. The desktop client is currently in closed beta, with a waitlist or studio demo for early access.
