Mirall
Secure transfer of large files P2P - no cloud. no middleman
Mirall is a P2P desktop app for moving terabyte-scale files and folders directly between collaborators. Private spaces, approval-gated membership, on-device and in-transfer encryption. All of this wrapped in a beautiful and intuitive user experience.
The idea to build Mirall was born at the Mallorca Film Festival. Companies and individuals in the movie industry often have the challenge to transfer large data files during the post production phase of a movie. While large production studios often offer their own file transfer solutions, smaller companies or individuals are often relying on consumer grade third party services, which is usually not allowed from a compliance perspective because of the potential of data leaks. Somehow it has become a really complex problem to transfer large files over the internet without some cloud storage. I overheard conversations where this was discussed and thought to myself that I might be able to solve that problem.
Finally something built for the actual headache of shipping huge project files without juggling cloud storage limits. The approval-gated spaces feel like the right default, and moving a 2TB folder between two laptops was noticeably faster than my usual handoff workflow.
