How it works
From file to link in seconds.
Three steps from your device to someone else's, no account, no queue, no upsell.
-
Drop your file
Up to 1 GB per file, 15 at once. Drop in a folder and it's zipped automatically, or paste a URL.
-
Get your link
A short link and a scannable QR code, ready the moment the upload finishes. No sign-up, no email.
-
Share on your terms
Add a password, cap the downloads, set an expiry from an hour to a month, or keep it live forever.
Features
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Built for one job: getting your file from A to B without anyone looking over your shoulder.
Built-in previews
Every link opens on a full preview page. MP4, MP3, PNG, PDF and text all render in the browser, with a custom player for video and audio.
Password protection
Lock any link with a password. Five wrong guesses send the file into a 15-minute timeout.
Download limits
Cap a link at 1, 5 or 100 downloads. When the limit is reached, the file self-destructs.
Auto-expiry
From one hour to forever, you decide how long a file lives. Expired files are gone for good.
Unlimited storage & bandwidth
Upload as much as you want, as often as you want. No monthly caps, no throttling, no surprise limits.
QR codes & short links
Every upload comes with a scannable QR code and a clean short link. Paste it, print it, share it anywhere.
Rich link previews
Paste a link in Discord, WhatsApp or Slack and it unfurls with the filename, size and a preview image. No naked URLs.
Why stashr
Everything others hide behind a paywall.
Most file hosts trade your privacy for "free," then upsell the good parts. Stashr just gives them to you.

Privacy first
Private by design,
Private by design,
not by promise.
Most platforms ask you to trust them with your data. Stashr is engineered so you don't have to.
Zero-knowledge encryption
Enable client-side encryption and your file is sealed in your browser before it leaves your device. The key never touches our servers, we couldn't read your files even if we were ordered to.
AES-256-GCM
Anonymous by default
No account, no email, no phone number. Uploading requires exactly zero personal information, a link is all that exists between you and your file.
no identity required
No trackers, no ads, no profiling
No analytics pixels, no fingerprinting, no ad networks watching what you share. Stashr runs on donations, your data was never the business model.
0 third-party trackers
GDPR-compliant, EU-based
Operated from the Netherlands under the GDPR, the strictest privacy law in the world. Your rights aren't a courtesy here, they're the law.
EU jurisdiction
Minimal metadata
We store only what's needed to serve your file and keep the platform safe, no IP profiles, no behavioural logs, no shadow copies.
data minimalism
Files that disappear
Auto-expiry and download caps mean your data doesn't outlive its purpose. When a file expires, it's gone for good, not archived.
self-destruct built in

Kept alive by people,
not advertisers.
Stashr has no ads, no trackers and no paid tiers, which also means no revenue. Every server, every gigabyte of storage and all the bandwidth is paid out of one person's pocket. If Stashr saved you a WeTransfer subscription, consider covering a day of servers.
