Importing Illustrator files into After Effects creates a mess of redundant shape groups. I built Regrouper to clean them up automatically, and I'm giving it to you for free!

— What it does —
- Merges shape groups with identical fill/stroke settings
- Flattens nested group structures
- Renames groups by color (e.g., "Deep Red", "Medium Gray-Cyan")
- Alt/Option+click to manually merge selected groups
- Shows before/after group count so you can see the cleanup
