In their own words
FileFast
FileFast is a file-transfer service from Primo for sending large files by link or email and collecting incoming files through request links. Senders can see when transfers are opened and files downloaded. Recipients normally download in a browser without an account or app. Transfers may be public, limited to email-verified visitors, or restricted to an allowlist, and folder transfers preserve the selected folder structure. Verified recipients can preview supported work, comment on pages or timestamps, and approve or request changes. The service offers web, iPhone and iPad, Android, macOS, Chrome, and Firefox access, plus an API for uploads, tracked transfers, collections, verified submissions, and recipient activity. Free users get 5 GB per transfer and 10 GB storage at $0 per month; no credit card is required, though email verification precedes upload. Paid plans add larger limits, branding, review tools, team administration, and security controls.
SendSafely
SendSafely is an end-to-end encrypted platform for transferring sensitive files and messages. Files are encrypted on the sender’s device with OpenPGP and AES-256; a split-key design means SendSafely cannot decrypt the contents. Recipients can access files in a modern browser without an account after confirming identity with a one-time passcode sent by email or SMS. Senders can set expiry dates, revoke access, limit views or downloads, and enable view-only mode or watermarking.
Native integrations include Outlook, Gmail, Slack, Salesforce, Zendesk, Freshdesk, and Intercom. Developers can use a REST API and client libraries for Python, Java,.NET, and Node.js, though API access requires Business or higher. The company lists SOC 2 Type 2, PCI DSS, GDPR, and CCPA support, with HIPAA BAAs on Enterprise plans. Hosting runs on AWS; Business and Enterprise plans can use regional hosting in the United States, European Union, or Australia. Basic costs $10 a month, and trials are limited to 2 GB of uploads.
