KeibiDrop

Mounts another computer's folder as a normal folder on yours, and streams each file on demand as you open it and edit it.

UI screen of KeibiDrop once the connection is live, and the filesystem is mounted. Now you can browse and use the shared files in real time.

What is KeibiDrop?

KeibiDrop connects two computers directly and shows one machine's folder as an ordinary folder on the other. There is no upload step and no copy: file contents stream across the internet as your applications read them, so opening one 5 MB file out of a 500 GB tree moves 5 MB.

Because it is a real filesystem, the software already installed keeps working. Finder and Explorer browse it, git clones from it, ffmpeg reads from it, and an editor saves back to it, you can use it with Blender, Premier, or any generic application on your computer. Both people can write, and when two saves genuinely cross, the newer one keeps the name and the other is kept beside it on both machines. You can use your Windows local software for data that is on Linux, or any combinations. You can also use it to mount files from Android and instantly open them on your desktop.

Sessions are end-to-end encryption with post quantum encryption. No accounts and no email addresses required.
