NDI Launcher
NDI Launcher is the macOS front end for opening and managing installed NDI Tools used in IP video and audio workflows.
What is NDI Launcher?
NDI Launcher is a macOS utility included with NDI Tools that gives users one place to open the installed NDI applications on their Mac. It is designed for creators, streamers, AV teams, and production users who work with NDI video-over-IP workflows and want quick access to tools such as monitoring, routing, screen capture, webcam input, and network management. The launcher also provides access to NDI-specific settings, including group privacy options used to control how NDI sources are shared on a network. On Mac, it functions mainly as a central hub for the broader NDI Tools suite rather than a standalone production tool by itself. Users will usually encounter it after installing NDI Tools for Mac to help start the right companion app for testing, streaming, collaboration, or live production tasks.
Key features
- Open installed NDI Tools from one central launcher window
- Access companion tools for monitoring, routing, capture, and webcam workflows
- Manage NDI group privacy settings for source sharing on a network
- Provide a simple starting point for Mac-based NDI setup and testing

Safety overview
Status: Safe
NDI Launcher is a legitimate utility for opening and configuring NDI Tools on your Mac. Its network-related settings are normal for software that helps manage audio and video streams across a local network. If you use NDI in shared environments, review group privacy settings so your sources are only visible to the people or devices you intend.
Recommendation: Keep NDI Launcher if you use NDI Tools or any NDI-based streaming, broadcast, or AV workflow on this Mac. If you no longer use the NDI suite, you can remove it along with the related NDI Tools without affecting macOS itself.
