File sharing that simply flows
Self-hosted. You set the limits.
Send files, collect client uploads, and control access to shared links.
Host Dew on your own servers or with your trusted cloud provider.
Start free with up to 5 local users and 1 domain. No signup. No credit card.
Link protection
Choose how each file can be accessed
Public links are convenient. But some files need more protection.
Dew lets you secure each share with:
Passwords
Lock any link behind a password.
Email verification
Require a one-time code sent by email before download.
SMS verification
Require a one-time code sent by text message before download.
IP allow lists
Restrict access to known networks.
Single-use access
The link works for one download, then stops working.
Automatic expiration
Links stop working on schedule.
Individual expiration dates
Set a different lifetime on every share.
You decide who gets access and how long the link stays available.

File requests
Collect files from anyone
Need files from a customer, partner, or collaborator? Send them a file request. They open the link in their browser and upload what you asked for - contracts, media, logs, scans, project files, or anything else.
No recipient account. No extra cost for collaborators.
Apps
Drag. Drop. Done.
Dew works in any modern browser on desktop and mobile. Native apps for macOS and Windows, with Linux in preview, make frequent sharing quicker: drop in a file, let Dew upload it, and use the link that comes back.
The desktop apps can also be deployed through standard MDM workflows.

Self-hosted
Your data.
Your sovereignty.
Dew is self-hosted by design. Run it on infrastructure you trust and keep the files where you want them - in your office, on a NAS, in your datacenter, or with a cloud provider of your choice. That gives you control over GDPR, data sovereignty, customer requirements, and internal security policies.
Dew runs in Docker and fits into infrastructure you may already have. Typical deployments include:
In the box
The whole toolkit
Everything below ships in the same Docker container.
Link Security
Passwords, email or SMS codes, IP allow lists, and single-use links.
Auto Expiration
Expiration dates on every link.
ZIP Browser
Download as a package or browse files individually.
Request Files
Collect files securely from anyone.
Cross Platform
Any browser, plus native apps for macOS and Windows, with Linux in preview.
Docker Ready
One container, from NAS to datacenter.
S3 Compatible
Local disk, or any S3-compatible storage on Pro.
User Management
Create, invite, or bulk-import users.
Account 2FA
Admins can require TOTP for all local users.
Audit Trail
Security events in a separate audit log, on Enterprise.
Who it is for
From one person to a whole organization
A freelancer can use Dew to exchange files with clients.
A small company can make it the standard way to send and request files.
