Triage a remote machine without a VPN

Mount the files read only and search them in place, where the listing costs about 73 bytes a file and content moves only when you read it.

Every tool just works on the shared folder

We tested more than 25 programs across the mount, including git, cargo, ffmpeg, Python, Node.js, ImageMagick, rsync and SQLite, and integrity held in both directions.

Work on files from another computer without copying them

Mount another device's files as a folder and edit them in any app, with no sync step, no copy and no cloud.

Stream files from another device without downloading them first

Open a 2 GB video from your phone on your laptop, and it plays before the transfer finishes.

Send large files to someone without uploading them anywhere

Transfer a 40 GB project folder directly, with no cloud, no size limit and no account.

Use Windows programs to edit files on your Mac (or Linux)

Open files from another operating system in any application, and your edits sync back in real time without copying anything.

Share files between Mac and Android

AirDrop only works between Apple devices, where KEIBIDROP works across all of them.

Transfer files over WiFi without internet

Share files on the same local network with no cloud and no internet, which works at conferences, on planes and in offices.

Run ffmpeg, Premiere, or any program on files from another computer

Run your local tools on remote files, and only the bytes your program reads get transferred.

Git clone a repository from someone else's computer

Clone a repo directly from a colleague's machine over an encrypted peer connection, with no GitHub push in between.

AirDrop alternative for Windows and Android

AirDrop is Apple only, where KEIBIDROP works across Mac, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS, and adds virtual folders and no size limit.

Send files without WeTransfer or Google Drive

There is no upload, no download, no 2 GB limit and no account, just a direct encrypted transfer between the two devices.

Share game save files between players

Succession games, PBEM campaigns and co-op saves all work by sharing the save folder directly, which skips the zip, upload and download cycle.
