The cloud storage you're using was designed for a threat model that no longer exists. Every breach now feeds an AI. Every provider can read your files. Every ransomware crew has better tooling than the teams fighting them. Perma can't read your data. Not won't - can't. Client-side encryption, immutable hardware, $1/GB paid once. Attackers see cypiertext. It's unreadable to everyone, including us. Forever. We're offering 2GB free for everyone who wants to see what REAL permanent storage is.
Greetings Product Hunt! š I'm Bryce, co-founder of Perma.
Here's what nobody wants to say out loud: the cloud storage you're using was designed for a world that no longer exists.
In 2015, "we take security seriously" was a reasonable promise. In 2026, it's marketing. Every major provider can technically read your files. Every breach feeds a training set. Every AI company is quietly scraping what it can. Every ransomware crew has better tooling than the team defending against them. And every legacy provider is asking you to trust that their policies, employees, and partners will hold the line forever.
That's not a security model. That's a prayer.
We built Perma on a simpler premise: the only safe data is data that can't be seen. Not, "we won't look at it." Not, "we have policies against accessing it." WE AND EVERYONE ELSE CANNOT PHYSICALLY SEE WHAT YOU'VE UPLOADED; Encrypted on your device, with keys that never leave it, on hardware that physically cannot be rewritten.
What that means in practice:
$1/GB, one time. Pay once. Own forever. No subscription, no renewal, no "we've updated our pricing."
Zero-knowledge by design. Client-side encryption; Breach us, attackers steal cypiertext. Even if we are acquired, they've acquired an unreadable data warehouse. The mission will not change because of an acquisition.
Immutable WORM hardware. Physically write-once. Ransomware can't encrypt what the hardware won't let it rewrite. Neither can a rogue employee. Neither can we.
Encrypted metadata. Even filenames are opaque to us. We don't know what you're storing, when you uploaded it, or what it's called.
Browser-streaming encryption. Upload a 50GB file from a tab without killing your RAM.
Built in Rust. Memory-safe, auditable, no legacy debt.
Perma is live at perma.sh today. Not a waitlist. Not a beta. Buy storage right now and start uploading. All early adopters get 2GB free.
Who this is for: anyone who's quietly realized "trust us" isn't a security model anymore. Legal, healthcare, and financial teams holding data that cannot leak. Researchers and journalists protecting sources. Creators with irreplaceable archives. And honestly, anyone who's watched the AI arms race and thought I'd really rather my family photos not end up training the next model.
We deeply believe in the mission of this platform and we're happy to go deep on any of it ā the cryptography, the WORM architecture, why Rust, why one-time-payment beats subscription for long-term archival. That's what today is for.
