EgressClaimed free. The business page is titled «Eliminate Egress Fees» and argues against providers «that charge hidden egress fees», and the pricing JSON-LD implies flat-rate. But no numbered egress allowance, no fair-use clause and no overage rate is published anywhere on the site — so the claim cannot be falsified from outside.
Per-object capnot stated
Retentionnot stated
Interfaces3, rest, webdav, rclone, cli rest
ToolingNone documented. No public API, no WebDAV, no S3 endpoint, no rclone backend, no CLI. The product page describes «Zero-Knowledge Personal Vault», AES-256-GCM client-side encryption, mobile sync and a web UI. This is the disqualifying gap.
Composes withPer-account consumer plans; no documented route that uses several accounts and no API to automate one.
