Online file transfer
Online file transfer, without the upload
Most "online file transfer" tools mean uploading to a server first. FileTransferX moves files directly between two devices instead — open a tab, pair with a code, and send.
Start a TransferHow it's different from a typical file-sharing site
Upload-based transfer services put your file on their storage while a recipient downloads it — sometimes for days afterward. FileTransferX pairs your device with the recipient's directly using a QR code or short transfer code, and the file moves between the two rather than sitting on a server in between.
That means no waiting for an upload to finish before a download can start, no account needed on either end, and nothing left over once the transfer is done.
Everything included

No Installation
Runs directly in a modern browser tab. Nothing to download.
No Account Required
Basic transfers do not require registration or sign-in.

Falls back to a secure relay when a direct peer-to-peer connection is not possible.
