Installing on macOS

Requires macOS 12 Monterey or later.

Option A: Installer (Recommended)

Download

Head to the Downloads page and grab the macOS installer for your Mac:

• Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4): SemanticModeler-osx-Setup.pkg
• Intel: SemanticModeler-osx-intel-Setup.pkg

Not sure which you have? Click the Apple menu () > About This Mac. If the Chip line says "Apple M1" or similar, you have Apple Silicon. If it says "Intel," use the Intel version.

Install

1. Open the .pkg file.
2. Follow the installer prompts.
3. Semantic Modeler is installed to /Applications/Semantic Modeler.app.

Tip

You can verify your download by comparing the SHA-256 hash on the Downloads page:

shasum -a 256 SemanticModeler-osx*.pkg

Updates

Semantic Modeler checks for updates automatically in the background. When an update is ready, it's applied the next time you launch the app.

Uninstall

Drag Semantic Modeler.app from /Applications to the Trash.

Option B: Portable

The portable version runs without installing. Useful if you want to keep it on an external drive or prefer not to install system-wide.

Download

Head to the Downloads page and grab the portable archive for your Mac:

• Apple Silicon: SemanticModeler-osx-Portable.zip
• Intel: SemanticModeler-osx-intel-Portable.zip

Install

1. Extract the .zip (double-click it in Finder).
2. Drag Semantic Modeler.app to any folder (e.g., /Applications or your Desktop).
3. Open the app.

Updates

The portable version does not update automatically. Download the latest portable archive from the Downloads page to update.
