Zero-knowledge encrypted file sharing — your files preview live without the server ever seeing the key

Free1,538 impressionslaunches Nov 16

FileShot.io is a zero-knowledge encrypted file sharing tool built for developers and privacy-conscious users. Files are encrypted in the browser using AES-256-GCM before any bytes leave your machine. The decryption key lives exclusively in the URL fragment — the server never sees it, period. What makes it genuinely different: encrypted video and image files stream and preview live in the recipient's browser without compromising encryption. No download required to watch a video. No account required to upload or download. No ads. No file size drama for anonymous users. Sharing controls that actually work: expiry by date or download count, optional password protection, custom file names. Delete your file any time from a management link only you receive. Built for the use case where you need to send something to someone fast, privately, without making them jump through hoops.

Zero-knowledge encrypted file sharing with client-side AES-256-GCM encryption and live preview streaming.
