Ten principles

File-sending is solved. What remains is the will to keep it solved — to resist adding tracking, modals, upsells, and "AI summaries". This is our discipline.

  1. 01

    Useful

    A file goes in, a link comes out. That's the whole product.

  2. 02

    Honest

    No dark patterns. No fake urgency. No 'upgrade to send'.

  3. 03

    Unobtrusive

    No cookies. No banners. No third-party scripts.

  4. 04

    Aesthetic

    Off-white paper, deep ink, one signal-orange accent.

  5. 05

    Understandable

    If a label needs a tooltip, it's the wrong label.

  6. 06

    Long-lasting

    Built on standards, not trends.

  7. 07

    Thorough

    Every byte verified. Every link expires.

  8. 08

    Environmentally friendly

    Files leave when their job is done. No infinite storage.

  9. 09

    Innovative

    Branded transfers as the smallest viable landing page.

  10. 10

    As little design as possible

    Subtract until nothing remains to remove.
