DeptDrive: Flat-Rate Department Cloud Storage, Content-Blind Admin

Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Eric, the founder of DeptDrive.

I built DeptDrive because I was frustrated with two things about modern cloud storage:

The "Per-Seat Tax" 📉
Why does our bill go up every single time we invite a contractor, a client, or a new team member? Most cloud drives were designed around seats. It works for the vendor, but not for small businesses that just need a clear boundary.
Admin Overreach 🔑
In almost every traditional cloud drive, the IT admin has the keys to the kingdom. They can open, preview, and download every single document. For legal, finance, and HR teams, that is a massive privacy and compliance risk.

So, we built something different:

DeptDrive is a flat-rate workspace storage. You pay per workspace (starting at just £9/month), not per user. You can invite up to 100 people on a single plan without worrying about the bill.

But more importantly, we built a Zero-Trust Architecture. Admins can manage folder structures and grant permissions—but they are completely content-blind. They cannot read, preview, or download your files. Absolute privacy, by design. 🤫

All data is securely stored in Western Europe (GDPR compliant).

We'd love your feedback:

Does this "content-blind admin" model solve a real problem for your team?
How do you currently handle file permissions for external contractors vs. internal staff?
