WebCatalog
WebCatalog is a desktop app for macOS that turns websites into separate app-like windows and helps organize web apps and accounts.
What is WebCatalog?
WebCatalog is a macOS desktop app that helps people use websites as dedicated desktop apps instead of keeping everything in browser tabs. It is designed for users who rely on web-based tools such as email, chat, project management, calendars, and dashboards, and want those services to open in their own windows with separate settings and sessions. WebCatalog also provides an app launcher-style workspace so users can organize services into pages, folders, and profiles for different accounts or roles. Common use cases include keeping work and personal logins separate, pinning favorite web apps to the Dock, and reducing tab clutter during daily work. Published by WebCatalog, Inc., it is primarily a productivity tool for people who spend much of their time in web apps on Mac.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
WebCatalog is legitimate desktop software for creating and managing web apps on Mac. Its network access, notifications, saved sessions, and local app data are consistent with its purpose. Because it can store sign-ins for multiple web services, users should protect the Mac account appropriately and review any permissions such as notifications according to their needs.
Recommendation: Keep WebCatalog if you use web apps regularly and want them separated from your main browser. Remove it if you no longer use its app launcher, profiles, or custom web apps, but expect any WebCatalog-created app setups and stored sessions inside the app to stop being available there.
