Why Users Choose LargeFileTransfer
Automatic resume on network failure
Big files, weak connections. If your upload stalls, LargeFileTransfer resumes from where it stopped instead of making you start the multi-gigabyte upload over.
Files stay private and only used for delivery
Encrypted in transit, password-protectable, and never touched for anything beyond getting them to your recipient. No AI training, no ambiguity in the fine print.
Switch In 3 Easy Steps
- 1
Upload Your Files
Open LargeFileTransfer in your browser and upload your files directly. The Free plan supports files up to 10 GB each, and it works straight from the browser, same as WeTransfer, minus the size ceiling.
- 2
Set Password/Expiry
On a paid plan, lock the transfer with a password and choose how long the link stays live: a set number of days, a year, or never. Free links stay live for 3 days.
- 3
Share & Track
Share the link anywhere: email, Slack, a text. Your recipient downloads with one click, no account needed, and you can see the moment it's downloaded.
Privacy & AI: Our Promise
Changes to WeTransfer’s terms in 2025 prompted questions about whether user content could be used for AI training. WeTransfer later clarified that it does not use user files to train AI models.
LargeFileTransfer’s position is straightforward: your uploads are used to deliver your files, not to train AI models. That gives you one less question to consider when choosing a service for sending client work, creative projects, or other large files.
