| Free tier | Send Large Files - Free File Sharing and Transfer up to 10 GB. No Email Required. unit GB; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | USD 0 |
| Limits | Revocation and per-download visibility are the differentiators the page sells; neither was exercised. |
| Binding | pull-count The publishable download limit is the first constraint a re-fetch meets: a link with a limit of one is spent by the first reader, and at 1 TiB a month that means a new transfer per read. |
| Identity | anonymous 'No accounts, no ads: Nobody needs to sign up, neither you nor your recipients' |
| Egress | No byte allowance stated. The page offers a download limit and revocation per transfer, so traffic out is controlled by the sender rather than metered by the vendor. free allowance: none published |
| Per-object cap | up to 10 GB (10000000000 bytes) |
| Retention | unverified: expiry is an option ('optionally with a password or an expiry date'), no default period is published |
| Interface | unknown Browser drop zone. /api/upload returns 404, /api/files returns 400, so a JSON API exists (the 400 is a validation answer) but its contract is not published. |
| Tooling | Browser only as observed. The 400 from /api/files is the one opening: it means a JSON endpoint answers, and a wrapper could probe it. |
| Composes with | A per-transfer download limit and revocation make it a controlled hand-off, which is the opposite of a mirror; it does not chain into an archive. |
| Reliability | No published operator, no API documentation, and an edge that answers unknown POSTs with 404. |
| Notes | The controlled-hand-off feature set is real but unmeasured. |
| Evidence note | documented The 10 GB offer and the no-account sentence are quoted from the vendor page; nothing was uploaded, so the cap is the page's word. |
