Bad filenames cost you sales.
Fixing them shouldn't cost you links.

Generic filenames like IMG_4821.jpg waste SEO value and confuse shoppers. Renaming them by hand breaks links across your site. Renamly fixes both — clean names, every reference updated in the same click, and it knows which product each image belongs to.

Features

Everything your media library needs — nothing it doesn't.

Renamly is opinionated where it should be, and gets out of the way everywhere else.

Product-aware naming

Detects the product each image belongs to via its featured image, gallery, or attachment, and names the file from the product's title.

Naming methods

Attached-post title, attachment title, numbered, anonymized, AI vision — or a cascade that chains them with fallback.

Variant naming

For variation images, append the variant automatically — e.g. -black-large — so every SKU is uniquely named.

Optional SKU

Append the product SKU to the filename when you want it. Off by default, one toggle to enable.

Full reference updates

Renames the main file and every thumbnail size, then rewrites URLs across posts, content and metadata — http, https and protocol-relative.

301 redirects

Old file URLs redirect to the new ones, so external links and search results keep working.

Metadata sync

Update Title, ALT, Caption and Description to match — one consistent story per image.

Undo & history

Every rename is logged. One click restores the old name and reverses the link changes.

Lock & status

Track Never renamed, Pending, and Renamed states. Lock files you don't want touched.

Auto-attach

Link unattached product images to the right product automatically — one at a time or in bulk.

Automation

Auto-rename on upload and when a product's title changes. Set it once and forget it.

Bulk mode

Process large libraries in batches without timeouts. Ideal for stores with thousands of images.

AI vision

Bring your own Anthropic or OpenAI key. Renamly describes each image and names it from its content.

WP-CLI

Rename and attach from the command line. Perfect for migrations, staging syncs and CI.

Transliteration

Clean, ASCII-safe slugs from accented characters and non-Latin scripts.

Built for stores

WooCommerce, understood.

Renamly knows how WooCommerce stores are structured. It reads each image's featured, gallery or attachment relationship to the product it belongs to, and names the file from that product's title.

  • Product-aware naming. Featured, gallery and attachment images all resolve to the right product.
  • Variant naming. Variation images append their attributes — perfect for black / large SKUs.
  • Auto-attach. Orphan product images get linked to the right product, one at a time or in bulk.

Bring your own AI.

Renamly connects to your own Anthropic or OpenAI account, using your key and your billing. We don't bundle a key, we don't proxy your images, and we don't charge a per-image fee.

  • No key is bundled — Renamly stays inert until you add one
  • Keys live in your WordPress site, never on our servers
  • Switch providers, rotate keys, or disable AI anytime
