Sloth
Mac app that shows all open files, directories, sockets, pipes and devices in use by all running processes. Nice GUI for lsof.

WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
That said, after I learned about how to use lsof, I found this little free app called =Sloth (and its github page ), which is just a nice native Mac app serving as a GUI for lsof. It'll let you know exactly which process to quit or kill so your drive can eject happily.
