See the whole system.
Then focus in.
Start with an automatically generated workspace, then switch between projects and focused scenes while Workscene restores the matching windows and layouts.
Automate the repeatable parts
Open projects on a schedule or display change, and add apps, files, and links for a scene to launch when needed.
Move data only when you choose
Export and import a privacy-filtered document, or opt in to private iCloud Drive sync with local safety copies.
Try focused scenes
One project.
Different views.
Inside a project workspace, choose a scene to bring its individual windows into focus. Shared windows remain available without duplicating them.

A calmer way to switch context
Set it once.
Flow all day.
Organize your Mac
One click groups the windows already open into sensible workspaces and focused scenes, then remembers their layouts.
Use it immediately
Open the generated workspace on your current Desktop, rename anything you like, or undo the complete plan.
Return whenever you need it
Switch back later to reveal the project windows, reopen configured resources, and restore the saved layout.
Made for real window chaos
The details are
the product.
Workscene focuses on one job: making the windows you already use feel like coherent, dependable environments.
Smart, explainable placement
Get a ranked destination for each unassigned window, see the local evidence, and explicitly repair stale rules.
Window-level control
Organize individual windows instead of moving an entire app as one indivisible block.
Managed project contexts
Reveal the selected project, restore its layout, and hide unrelated applications when it is safe to do so.
Scenes inside workspaces
Keep optional Browser, Code, AI, and other focused arrangements under the project they belong to.
Adaptive layouts
Learn display-relative arrangements and transform them safely when your connected-display setup changes.
Organize with a preview
Start in one click, or review an editable plan when you want control over every workspace, scene, and assignment.
Workspace commands
Open, assign, save, organize, or troubleshoot in plain language with every action validated before it runs.
Private by design
Workspace rules stay on your Mac unless you export them or enable private iCloud Drive sync. Smart Assist learning stays local, and diagnostics omit observed window titles, URLs, and document identifiers.
Save and resume
Save a workspace for later, close its dedicated apps and selected Safari profile windows, then resume the saved app set and layouts.
Built on public APIs
Uses Accessibility, Core Graphics, and AppKit for supported window management—never private Spaces APIs.
Simple, affordable pricing
Buy it once.
Keep your flow.
Workscene runs locally without a Workscene account. Try the complete app before deciding; an internet connection is needed only when you activate or deactivate a Mac.

Respecting the platform
Powerful, without
private shortcuts.
Workscene deliberately avoids private Apple Spaces APIs. Managed windows is the supported default and works on the current Desktop. An experimental option can send Mission Control shortcuts you configure yourself, but Workscene does not claim to identify, create, or manage macOS Spaces.
