Is there any way I can automate a folder and send the files to named Folders according to their names

when I pull docs from the internet they have certain names(they're renamed while saving) eg 01_apple, 01_banana, 01_cherry I have these three unique texts in the file name, in the downloads folder in the mac so is there any way where they can go to the named folder directly when they are downloaded and renamed.


I tried to put the file accordingly from the downloads dropdown but made too many mistakes


I scratched my head way too much for this any help would be appreciated

thank you so much

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.2
