End-to-end encrypted. Files never touch the server.

Cross-platform

Oneapp.EveryOS.

Works on most networks. Pro routes around the rest.

Zenden connects devices directly, peer-to-peer — this works great on home and office Wi-Fi. Cellular/mobile data and some corporate or school networks commonly block direct connections; Pro subscribers are automatically routed through a relay when that happens, while free users will see a clear error.

Why people pick it

Builtaroundhowyouactuallyshare.

Peer-to-peer

Direct browser-to-browser. No relay servers between you and the recipient.

No accounts

Send and receive without ever signing up. Open a link, download the file.

Files never stored

We don't see your files. Once the session ends, they're gone.

Cross-platform

macOS native app. Windows and Linux via Tauri. One subscription covers macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Resumable transfers

Sessions last 7 days for everyone — free and Pro. Re-open the same link and pick up where you left off.

Encrypted by default

WebRTC DataChannel uses DTLS-SRTP. Your files are encrypted in transit.

Pricing

Transfers are free. Pro is the network.

Everything works on Free — unlimited files, unlimited size, 7-day sessions. Pro adds TURN relay (up to 100 GB/month of relayed fallback traffic) so transfers complete from mobile hotspots, carrier NAT, and iCloud Private Relay. Async cloud upload — so recipients don't need to be online when you send — is coming in v2.1.
