Private file transfer

Send the file.
Not the metadata.

A calm, fast way to move sensitive files. Protected by your rules, designed to disappear when the job is done.

Your files, on your terms.

Add password protectionA second layer for especially sensitive files

02 / Built for trust

Less noise. More control.

Security should be felt in the defaults, not explained in a 40-page manual.

Private by architecture

The storage layer receives encrypted packages, not readable files.

Time works for you

Give every link a deliberate lifetime. Access closes automatically when it expires.

Simple handoff

Choose the lifetime, recipient, and download limit before the link leaves your hands.

03 / How it works

One clean handoff.

A short guide for sending a protected file to a colleague or an external partner.

Send securely in four steps.

Nothing needs to be installed. The file is protected in your browser before it reaches the storage layer.

Choose the file

Select one or more files from your device.

02
Set the rules

Choose expiry, download limit, recipient, and optional password.

03
Encrypt and upload

Your browser encrypts each file before upload begins.

04
Share the handoff

The recipient opens the link and downloads the file on their device.
