Download Dispatcher automatically routes downloads into the right folders so your Downloads folder stays clean and organized.

Instead of manually sorting files after downloading them, Download Dispatcher smartly dispatches each download to the correct destination automatically.

Downloads are organized instantly using simple rules such as website, file type, keyword, or project folder.

-----------------------------------------------------
How Download Dispatcher Works
-----------------------------------------------------
Download Dispatcher builds a routing path for every download using configurable layers.

Each layer adds a folder segment until the final destination is created.

Example routing path:

Downloads → Work → ABC Company → PDFs → report.pdf

Another example using keywords:

Downloads → Work → Weekly Reports → weekly_report.xlsx

Every download is dispatched through these routing layers automatically.

-----------------------------------------------------
Powerful Multi-Layer Routing
-----------------------------------------------------
Combine multiple routing layers to create a structured folder system:

• Category / workspace folders
• Domain-based routing (website source)
• File type organization
• Date-based folders
• Filename keyword routing

You decide how downloads are organized.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Automatic Download Routing by Website
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Route downloads automatically based on where they came from.

Example:

google.com → Work/Google
github.com → Work/GitHub
dropbox.com → Work/Dropbox

Organize Downloads by File Type

Automatically group files by extension:

.pdf → PDFs
.xlsx → Spreadsheets
.zip → Archives
.jpg / .png → Images

-----------------------------------------------------
Filename Keyword Routing
-----------------------------------------------------
Route downloads when filenames contain specific keywords.

Example rules:

invoice → Work/Invoices
weekly → Work/Weekly Reports
report → Work/Reports

Keyword rules can override other routing layers when needed.

----------------------------------------------------------
Category & Workspace Organization
----------------------------------------------------------
Use categories to quickly switch download destinations for projects, clients, or workflows.

Examples:

Work
Work/Clients/ABC
Personal
Research
Taxes

Nested folders are fully supported, allowing you to build a structured workspace.

-----------------------------------------------------
Explainable Download Routing
-----------------------------------------------------
Download Dispatcher includes a Recent Dispatches view that shows:

• Where the file was routed
• Why it was routed there
• Which routing rules were applied

You always know exactly how each download was dispatched.

Profiles for Multiple Computers

Export and import routing profiles to keep download organization consistent across devices.

Profiles can be stored in a shared folder such as:

Dropbox
OneDrive
Google Drive

This allows you to use the same routing setup across multiple computers.

-----------------------------------------------------
Basic Mode or Advanced Mode
-----------------------------------------------------
Choose the level of control you want.

Basic Mode
Quickly organize downloads using simple routing layers.

Advanced Mode
Create powerful multi-layer routing systems for complex workflows.
-----------------------------------------------------
Perfect For
-----------------------------------------------------
Download Dispatcher is ideal for:

• Remote workers
• Developers
• Consultants
• Researchers
• Students
• Anyone who downloads many files

Keep Your Downloads Folder Clean

Download Dispatcher automatically organizes downloads as they arrive so your files stay structured without manual sorting.

No scripts.
No complicated rule engines.
Just simple, powerful routing.

-----------------------------------------------------
Privacy & Security
-----------------------------------------------------
Download Dispatcher is designed with privacy and security in mind.

• The extension does not collect or transmit personal data.
• Download Dispatcher does not send information to external servers.
• All configuration, rules, and history are stored locally in your browser.
• The extension only interacts with downloads in order to route files to folders you configure.

Download Dispatcher uses standard browser permissions required for download routing:

• downloads – detect and route downloaded files
• storage – save your routing rules and settings
• contextMenus – provide optional right-click tools
• tabs – open help, settings, and information pages
• alarms – support optional timer and automation features

No tracking. No analytics. No data collection.

Download Dispatcher is a browser download organizer that helps route new downloads into the right folders automatically.

Instead of saving every file into one crowded Downloads folder, Download Dispatcher lets you choose an active workspace and destination, then apply optional local rules to organize files by type, date, filename keywords, source website, or file size.

It is designed for people who download many files and want a faster, more consistent way to keep browser downloads organized.

Key features:

• Organize downloads by workspace, route, and folder rules
• Preview the current Dispatch Destination before downloading
• Quickly switch between destinations from the popup
• Route files by type, date, filename keyword, source website/domain, or file size
• Show the active workspace with a toolbar badge code
• Review Recent Dispatches to confirm the final saved path and filename
• Export and import profiles to back up or move your setup
• Use linked folder guidance for cloud-folder workflows such as Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or other synced folders

Download Dispatcher can help with:

• Project and client downloads
• Tax documents and receipts
• PDFs, spreadsheets, images, and business records
• Research files
• Personal vs. work download separation
• Cloud-folder organization
• Reducing manual cleanup of the Downloads folder

The popup gives you day-to-day control. You can check the active workspace, route, and Dispatch Destination before downloading. If the toolbar badge is enabled, a short workspace code can appear on the browser toolbar so you can confirm the active destination at a glance.

Recent Dispatches helps you verify what actually happened. It shows where a file was saved, which workspace and route were used, and how routing rules contributed to the final destination.

Download Dispatcher also includes profile export and import, making it easier to back up your setup or move it to another browser profile.

Optional correction feature:
Dispatch Again can repeat the last eligible web download through the browser and dispatch the repeat download to the current destination. This can help if you downloaded a file, changed the active destination, and want another copy routed to the corrected location. Dispatch Again does not delete, move, or clean up the earlier file. Some generated, expired, local, or site-protected downloads may not be repeatable by the browser.

Privacy:
Download Dispatcher stores its settings and recent dispatch details locally in the browser extension. It does not require host permissions and does not send your files, download history, profile data, or browsing content to a remote server.

Download Dispatcher is useful for anyone who wants browser downloads organized automatically with clear destination control, local rules, and practical visibility into where files are saved.
