Is there a way to streamline file path navigation when saving files?

I'm running Premiere 25.1 on a M1 MacBook Pro with Sequioa OS.

The nature of my editing is that I am constantly saving assets to different locations from Premiere into my integrated Dropbox folders.
I spend a huge amount of time navigating to the correct folder for saving, because the needed file path is constantly changing.

Is there is way to create a one-click shortcut to say, 5 different folder locations/file paths when saving assets? This might be more of a Mac OS question but I thought maybe Premiere had some feature that could accomplish this?

Check out Default Folder X for Mac. One of the best utilities for this.

There is nothing within Premiere Pro that can do that.

There may be a third party app somewhere that has that ability.

 

See if this can work for you:

I guess in a perfect world, an AI within premiere would recognize a pattern in what assets I typically save to where, and then automatically choose that file path.

I don't think I would want AI to be deciding where to save my files.

AI is just too unpredictable at this stage of its development.

On Windows i can right click on a folder and choose Pin to Quick access. So if i for example pin five different folders in the file browser, Explorer, i can then from within the Save As dialog in Premiere Pro that pops up when i select Location in the Export window access those folders with one click. I tested now and it is even possible to pin folder directly from within the Save As dialog i get in Premiere Pro.

 

I am sure that there is a similar feature on the Mac.

 

In the image below i can just click once on Premiere Exports that will take me directly to let´s say G:\folder one\another folder\are you kidding\yet another folder\give me a break\Premiere Exports
