MacPaw Way Ltd.
The Unarchiver is a free macOS app from MacPaw that extracts RAR, ZIP, 7z, Tar, Gzip and many older archive formats, including encrypted and multi-volume RAR files. The official page lists extraction formats only and does not describe creating archives. It requires macOS 10.13 or later and states there are no in-app purchases for additional features.
