What It Does
Declutter organizes After Effects project panels by automatically sorting assets into folder structures you design. Instead of manually dragging hundreds of files into folders, you create a reusable structure with filters, then apply it to clean up projects in seconds.
Version 1.5 introduced multi-filters per folder (a folder can catch both PNGs and pre-comps), search by name without prefixes, and import/export so teams can share organizational templates.
Key Features
Custom folder structures. Build and save as many organizational templates as you need. Name folders, assign color labels, and define which assets belong where. Structures persist across projects.
Multi-filter folders. A single folder can now apply multiple filters. For example, catch all audio files and all video files in one “Media” folder, or separate pre-comps and image sequences into a “Source” folder.
Smart asset sorting. Search by name without prefixes. The filter system recognizes compositions vs. pre-compositions, audio vs. video vs. images, image sequences, data files (JSON, CSV), file extensions (.png, .c4d), and missing files.
Selective targeting. Organize specific selected assets or the entire project. If you select three comps and hit organize, only those assets move. Deselect everything to sort the full panel.
Import/export structures. Share folder templates with teammates. Export your organizational system, send the file, they import it and instantly match your structure.
Speed improvements. Version 1.5 runs up to 3x faster than 1.0 when sorting large projects. Handles thousands of assets in seconds.
Who It’s For
Useful for anyone working with messy project panels. If you inherit client projects with 500 unsorted files, or build templates that need consistent folder structures, this saves the manual sorting. Motion designers managing large productions or template creators who want repeatable organization will use it most.
