File sharing should be
instant and free
Wormhole is an open-source project built to give creative professionals a faster, simpler, and more private way to share files.
Our Mission
We believe that sharing files between computers shouldn't require uploading to someone else's server, waiting hours for transfers, or paying monthly fees for cloud storage you don't need.
Wormhole was created for video editors sharing dailies, game developers collaborating on builds, VFX artists working with massive project files, and anyone who needs to share large files without the cloud getting in the way.
Your files go directly from your computer to theirs. No middleman. No upload. No waiting.
Our Values
Speed First
Access files in seconds, not hours. We optimize for the real-world workflows of creative professionals.
Privacy by Design
Your files never touch our servers. End-to-end encryption ensures only you and your collaborators can access shared content.
Open Source
Wormhole is MIT licensed. You can audit the code, self-host, or contribute to make it better for everyone.
Free Forever
Core functionality will always be free. We believe essential tools shouldn't be locked behind paywalls.
