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!

Jean.

I'd also love to share some technical details:

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.

Just to clarify: if I provide my own S3 is this free? I can't find an answer on the website

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.

I'll also make that more clear on the website.

Thank you for the reply. Maybe separate the pricing schemes based on "Bring your own key" or "Fully hosted"

Beautiful website btw.
