SharingCast uses WebRTC to connect two browsers directly so files travel straight from sender to receiver. Nothing is ever stored on a server, even temporarily. No account needed, works in any modern browser, and can be installed like an app on desktop, Android, or iOS. Add an optional password on top of WebRTC's built-in encryption, and transfers automatically resume if the connection drops.
Hey Product Hunt! I built SharingCast because I was tired of uploading files to third-party clouds just to move them between my own devices, or send something to a friend nearby. It's a peer-to-peer file transfer tool built on WebRTC — the sender picks a file, gets a short code, and the receiver connects directly. No server ever touches the file. Would love your feedback, especially on speed and reliability across different networks!
It’s fantastic because it enables direct, secure device-to-device file transfer without needing an account or server storage, protecting user privacy while working smoothly across any browser.
What needs improvement
The transfer speed depends on the local network, so optimizing the peer-to-peer connection for better performance on weaker networks could be an improvement.
vs Alternatives
I considered other cloud-based transfer services, but chose SharingCast for its privacy-first approach since files are never stored on a server.
SharingCast makes file sharing simple and hassle-free. I like that files can be transferred directly between devices without creating an account or relying on server storage. The clean interface and straightforward experience make it very convenient.
vs Alternatives
I considered traditional cloud storage and other file-sharing tools, but SharingCast stood out because of its direct peer-to-peer approach and simple setup.
just used it its a great idea and unique to me after seeing as they claim that no data saved on there server this could be the best platofrm for secure transactiontransactions
What needs improvement
if you guys can make this to work in ipad or iphone then it will be a great idea.
