Web uploader

The fastest way to send a file. Open storage.to, drop a file, copy the link. No signup, no installs.

No installUp to 25 GBSupported on mobile

How it works

1
Drag, drop, or paste - drop files onto the uploader, click to browse, or paste a file from your clipboard (works great for screenshots).
2
Upload runs in your browser - files go directly from your browser to our storage edge via presigned URLs. We never hold the bytes in transit.
3
Get a link - a share URL is ready the moment the upload completes. Copy it, or scan the auto-generated QR code from your phone.

Multiple files

Drop two or more files and they're automatically grouped into a collection: one link that shows all the files with individual and bulk (ZIP) download options.

default 3 days. Pick anywhere from 1 to 7 days, or set permanent (premium).

Supported on mobile

The uploader works on phones and tablets. On a file's download page, tap the QR icon to enlarge the code for easy scanning.

Resuming interrupted uploads

Files larger than 50 MB are chunked and uploaded in parallel. If your connection drops mid-upload the partial data is cleaned up automatically - just drag the file in again.

Privacy

Direct upload
Uploaded bytes go directly from your browser to our storage edge - not via our servers.
Encryption
Files are encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3).
No identity
No account, no email, no password tied to a file unless you set one.
End-to-end
We don't look at your files. For true end-to-end privacy, encrypt sensitive content locally first with age or gpg.
