GDriveKit - Duplicate file finder for Google Drive
Scan your Drive for duplicate files using content hashing - not just filenames. Group identical files, see how much space they waste, and delete with one click. Free while in beta.
How it works
01
Connect Google Drive
Sign in with Google once. GDriveKit uses OAuth with the minimum required scopes - read file metadata and MD5 checksums only.
02
Run a scan
GDriveKit fetches metadata for every file in your Drive. Files with matching MD5 checksums are grouped as duplicates - regardless of name or location.
03
Review and delete
See groups sorted by wasted space. GDriveKit suggests which file to keep. Confirm deletions - files go to Google Drive Trash, not permanent deletion.
Everything you need to reclaim your Drive
Built around one goal: find the duplicate files wasting your quota and let you safely remove them.
Content-hash deduplication
Matches files by MD5 checksum, not just name. Two files named photo.jpg and photo-copy.jpg with identical content are correctly grouped.
Scan history
Every completed scan is saved. Track how much space you've reclaimed over time and compare results across scans.
Saved configs
Save a scan scope and keep-rule as a named config. One click to re-run your most common scan.
Safe deletion model
Files move to Google Drive Trash, not permanent deletion. You have 30 days to restore from Trash if needed.
Privacy-first
File content never leaves your Google account. GDriveKit only reads metadata and MD5 checksums via the Drive API.
Shared drives support coming
My Drive and Shared with me supported today. Team Drive / Shared Drive support arriving in the next release.
FAQ
How do I find and remove duplicate files in Google Drive?
GKit Drive Cleaner scans your Google Drive, detects duplicates by content hash (not just filename), groups them, and lets you preview before deleting. It works via Google OAuth - no files leave your account.
Why is my Google Drive storage full even though I don't have many files?
The most common culprits are duplicate files from repeated uploads, Google Meet recordings, large video files, and a Trash folder that was never emptied. GKit Drive Cleaner audits all of these and shows you what's actually consuming space.
Is there a free Google Drive duplicate finder?
Yes - GKit Drive Cleaner is free in beta. It finds duplicate files by content hash, identifies large files, and gives you a preview before any deletions. No subscription required.
Is GKit Drive Cleaner safe to use?
Yes. Drive Cleaner uses Google OAuth with the minimum required scopes. It reads your file metadata and content hashes to detect duplicates - it never stores your files or shares data with third parties. You review everything before any file is deleted.
