Hi everyone, I've been developing Shuttle over the last months.
Even though it's a totally crowded space, I think we could use some improvement in file sharing.
Shuttle has beautifully designed branded sharing pages that you can use to send or receive files from your customers and track their activity. And it allows you to connect your own S3 or Backblaze B2 account for free.
I hope you'll enjoy it. And let me know what you think should be improved!
The data transfer core is written in Go and compiled as wasm to run the browser. It communicates directly with the S3-compatible object storage without our servers in between. This also enables us to communicate to a different storage such as your own.
The frontend is made in React/Remix and did my best to make it feel as native as possible. It's not perfect, but it got a long way.
Thanks. We get that question a lot. I think currently it distinguishes;
- Shuttle allows you to make well designed sharing pages in your branding (wallpaper, logo). Looking to extend those customization features further.
- Share pages can also be used to request files from others without them to require an account.
- We allow you to connect your own storage account (Backblaze B2 or Amazon S3) turning it into a truly pay as you go storage
- It's generally cheaper than Dropbox
Obviously Shuttle is just getting started and Dropbox is a big company that's been there for a long time. Instead of competing with Dropbox, we're currently looking into optimizing for niche like photography.
Yes it is. In that case the storage is free and unlimited, as long as you pay your amazon bills of course. There are a few limitations however such as a max link expiration time (can be renewed manually) to nudge you towards a subscription.
