Send Large Files via Temporary P2P Links for Free

Sharing a massive 10GB video file used to mean uploading it to a cloud service like Google Drive, Dropbox, or WeTransfer, waiting hours for the upload to finish, sending the link, and then waiting for your recipient to download it.

If both you and the receiver are online at the same time, this "upload then download" process is incredibly inefficient.

What if you could create a temporary, direct tunnel between your computer and theirs?

With Textunnel, you can drag and drop a file and instantly generate a secure, temporary share link.

How it works:

  1. You select a file above. Textunnel generates a unique, temporary URL (e.g., textunnel.com/s#a4x9).
  2. Your file never leaves your device. It stays safely in your local RAM/Disk.
  3. You send the link to your friend on WhatsApp, Slack, or email.
  4. When they open the link, their browser establishes a direct WebRTC peer-to-peer connection with your browser.
  5. The file streams directly from your hard drive to theirs, at maximum network speed.

Zero Servers = Zero Limits

Because Textunnel doesn't store your files on our servers, we don't have to pay for cloud storage. This means we don't impose file size limits. Want to send a 100GB 8K video project? Go ahead. As long as your browser can read it, you can send it.

Furthermore, once the transfer is complete, the link is permanently destroyed. True "read-and-burn" privacy for your most sensitive documents.
