There are many, many products to address this, like Mozilla's defunct Send, or the excellent but not self-hostable Wormhole.app. You will need to describe what is novel with Berb and why we should use it over other solutions, and no, using WebRTC is not sufficient.

My personal choice for this kind of situation is Wormhole-William, but it is not something my dad could use when he asks me to send the last year's worth of his granddaughter's photos to make a photobook of.

You make a good point there but all those solutions you mentioned store your file one way or another. Which also means your file is getting uploaded to some random server and you pretty much have no control over what happens after. With Berb that simply is not the case. WebRTC is a tool to achieve what I want and not the main selling point. It is simple - I don't want my files to be uploaded and I want the transfer to be instant (no download link later).

Beside the fact that this JUST got launched and can either be liked and used by many, or another dead product in a year, I have found myself using it multiple times so far. Like sending a large file to/from my work computer etc. If this is solving a problem for even a small number of people, that is great!

Wormhole.app and Magic Wormhole/Wormhole-William are all end to end encrypted by the client.
