Hazel would let me know which assignments I've completed and then separate ones that I've already recorded on an invoice from ones that are not. I also think using it to automatically import downloaded mp3s to itunes, and automating my torrent-related activities would be an amazing time saver.

And sorting downloads into appropriate folders automatically would be great also. But the best thing I see about this app is that it automatically cleans up after applications when you drag them to the trash. Why Apple didn't think to do that automatically I'll never know. I know you can use AppZapper but sometimes I forget and just drag an unneeded app to the trash without even thinking about it.
