Missing from the article (and the linked summary of other sites that do this) is letscrate.com, which does it so well that I'm not even interested in looking at sendoid. It's dead easy, and my clients understand and remember the name after I say it once.

Thanks for the mention! A lazy link because I'll never miss a chance to shameless plug: http://letscrate.com/

Excited to check out Sendoid though.

I dig Crate, but we don't really do the same thing. letscrate.com is an really awesomely designed and implemented cloud storage provider. Sendoid.com is an in browser file transfer method. I wouldn't consider us competitors (at most very indirectly) and think more than anything we complement products like Crate or DropBox.

Agreed. Want to talk privately sometime (email in profile)?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

We built a reliable file transfer method on top of the peer-to-peer media streaming technology used by Chat-Roulette and its clones, RTMFP.

what are you using as the server? it's my understanding that RTMFP was only recently reverse-engineered.

Not sure what Sendoid uses, but there is a project called Cumulus that implements an RTMFP server in C++.

https://github.com/OpenRTMFP/Cumulus

Haven't tried it yet, but the code looks pretty good.

Crate is really great, and I definitely like their UI a lot more, but Sendoid really knocks it out of the park in terms of speed and security.

Tell me more about how this solves security problems? (I'm asking, I don't already have an opinion). Why can I trust this service with (say) a zip file full of source code?

Very nice! I wonder what your revenue model is going to be, if it's OK to ask that early in the game?

Sure, I can give you some info:

We're still discovering this space, but we've learned that there are a huge number of use-cases in commercial sectors for secured, fast file transfer-- especially out-of-network transfers that don't require the receiver to be part of the sender's existing IT infrastructure. Sendoid's tech is great for this.

Companies are having to pay out the nose for our kind of service right now from enterprise providers. We don't think secured file transfer should be expensive, and Sendoid is the first step to fixing that.

PS: If you have a company that wants to get involved with our beta program, get in touch: corp@sendoid.com

It forms an encrypted direct connection between the sender and the receiver. The data never touches anyone else's server and is encrypted the entire trip.

Everyone feel free to run a tcpdump dump of the traffic if you want confirmation thats not from the guy who made the service.

How different Sendoid is from Tonido?(http://www.tonido.com)

With Tonido you can right click any file or folder and it will create an URL for the resource. You can share the URL with anybody for download. There is no limit on file size, no uploading - completely private and secure.

iPad version please! I know there are, um, some certain problems there ... but the need exists, especially with video editing. (I have ~2GB renders needing transfers that Dropbox can't handle.)

I have "methods" for implementing this stuff in iOS that I've been figuring out the last few weeks. Its definitely on the way.
