Drovp is a free cross-platform tool to perform bulk file operations such as rename, share, upload, encode, optimize images, etc. All you have to do is create a bulk operation profile and then drag-drop a group of files on it to perform the task. All the changes are performed on the input files, and you can create multiple profiles for the same operation but with different options.

Drovp is meant to be a software to do anything. It has an extensible architecture and you can write plugins for it to almost do anything.
