Hi Product Hunt, We had a problem with a freelancer where we wanted them to upload a large file to our Google Drive and there wasn't a good solution for it. If they shared it from their Google Drive then it would use up all their free storage space - no good! Uploading and downloading from WeTransfer links just seemed unnecessary, so I built PigeonFiles. You can connect a Google Drive folder, send someone a URL, and they can upload files directly to that folder in your Google Drive. Key features: ➡️ No upload size limit ➡️ Secure & private (files are sent directly to Google, PigeonFiles doesn't have access to them) ➡️ People don’t have to log in to upload ➡️ Tracking dashboard to see which files people upload ➡️ Password protect your upload pages I hope PigeonFiles can be useful for co-workers sharing files with each other, businesses who need deliverables from freelancers, and teachers collecting students’ homework. Who else do you think would find this useful? I’d love to know! Please share in the comments below 😊 And, if you have any feedback that can make PigeonFiles better, please let me know! Best regards, Stuart P.S. Need this as a white-labelled solution, a plugin, or an API? Comment below or message me on Twitter (@sturobinson)! I’d love to know how this could meet your needs 🧑‍💻

I was at first hesitant about the usefulness of such a product, but then I realized that it really solves the problem of downloading files by groups of people who shouldn't see each other's files. Really cool.

@moolgen Exactly! I've seen so many support questions on the Google forum about that exact issue and Google doesn't have a good solution for it, so I hope PigeonFiles can fill the gap, and offer a few extra features 😉

I manage client onboarding for a fast scaling software product with a client base that tends to have low-tech literacy. I can see this making the discovery process for my team that one click easier when requesting client data. Looking forward to see what this maker makes next!
