Google Drive File Renaming FAQ
Common questions about automatically renaming files in Google Drive
What accuracy can I expect?
95%+ on invoices, receipts, statements, and contracts. Every rename includes a confidence score so you can preview before files move to your organized folders.
Does renamed.to store my documents?
No. We process PDFs to extract text and metadata, store the extracted fields and rules you save, but never store the actual document unless you explicitly enable history. All processing happens in volatile memory.
Can I customize how files are named?
Yes. Use Auto mode, predefined templates (Complete, Date First, Company Focused), or write custom prompts. Each watched folder has its own template and organization strategy. Works with any document type.
Does it watch subfolders?
Yes. Watched folders monitor all subfolders recursively. Drop a PDF in /Invoices/2024/January and it processes automatically.
How does pricing work for Google Drive integration?
Same usage-based model: documents renamed per month. Free tier includes 50 docs. Pro plans start at 500 docs/month with priority processing and shared team rules.
What happens if a file is renamed incorrectly?
You can correct it once and save the rule. Future files from the same issuer will use your correction. All renames show confidence scores before moving to organized folders.
