About

Switchback adds a typeable path bar, an expandable folder tree, pausable copies with a speed graph, and a Task Manager to the Finder you already use. No new file manager. 14-day trial, no card. $24.99 once.

Attention & discussion velocity

Not enough snapshots yet. Run the snapshot worker every 15 min to build the time-series.

Performance

Pace needs two or more snapshots. This launch has 1, so velocity and momentum read as unmeasured rather than zero.

A source that found nothing is a measurement. A source that has not run is a gap. Neither means the launch lacks the thing.
