Emaki for Mac

Emaki is a fast image and comic viewer for macOS, built for libraries that are too large to keep on the internal drive.

Nothing is imported. Emaki reads the folder structure you already have, with no copying into a managed library. Move or rename files in the Finder and the ratings, tags and notes you added follow them — across drives too, matched by the file's own contents rather than by path.

Built for size. Folder contents appear progressively as they load. Large ZIP files show the first page without waiting for full extraction, and adjacent pages are prefetched. When a network share drops, the listing you were looking at stays on screen.

Reading is a spread view with a filmstrip and page slider. On top of that: ratings, tags and notes, multi-condition search, smart folders, duplicate and similar-image detection, and batch renaming. File operations can be undone with Command-Z and are kept in a history.

Images: JPEG, PNG, HEIC, WebP, PSD and others, plus some RAW formats (viewing only, no development). Archives: ZIP, CBZ, 7z, RAR v4/v5 and CBR. PDF and video also open.

The trial runs 30 days with every feature and no purchase step. The licence is a one-time purchase, valid on any number of Macs used by one person, and does not need a network connection to validate.
