How It Works
Content-Addressed Storage
Files are stored using their SHA-256 hash as the key. This enables automatic deduplication and ensures identical files are never stored twice.
Cryptographic Verification
Every file chunk includes SHA-256 integrity checks. The download client verifies each piece to ensure nothing was corrupted in transit.
Browser-Native Downloads
Downloads work directly in Chrome and Edge via the File System Access API. Safari and Firefox users get the same experience through the free Bridge app.
Global CDN Delivery
All content is delivered through a global edge network with intelligent caching and compression.
