A better way to share large files from your browser
If you're looking for a simpler alternative for sending large files, WeTransfer is built around exactly that. Upload from any browser, share a link or send straight to someone's inbox, and your files arrive at full original quality with no software required on either end.
Why choose WeTransfer
People searching for a Google Drive alternative often want something more focused: a tool that makes sending large files fast and frictionless, without navigating folder permissions or asking recipients to log in. WeTransfer works through any browser, no installation needed, and every transfer generates a unique download link that anyone can open and download from immediately. Files are sent in their original quality with no re-encoding, so 4K video, RAW photos, layered Photoshop files, 3D assets, and full folder structures all arrive exactly as you sent them. Recipients can preview images, video, audio, and PDFs directly in their browser before downloading, and they can comment on individual files without creating an account. For senders who need more control, password protection, download tracking, and restricted access to specific email addresses are all built in.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
No account is needed to download or preview a transfer. Recipients just open the link, and their files are there. Only the person sending needs a WeTransfer account, which is free to create.
On a free account, you can send up to 3 GB per transfer. WeTransfer Ultimate removes the per-transfer size cap entirely, making it practical for things like full 4K video projects, large RAW photo batches, or complex 3D and CAD archives.
No. WeTransfer sends files in their original quality with no compression, re-encoding, or resolution changes. A 4K video file, a layered design file, or a lossless audio export arrives exactly as it left your machine.
Free and Starter transfers are available for up to 3 days. On WeTransfer Ultimate and above, you can set a custom expiry, including keeping transfers active indefinitely. If a transfer does expire on Ultimate, you can also recover it, even retroactively for transfers that expired before you upgraded.
Yes. You can add a password to any transfer so only recipients who know it can download. You can also restrict access to specific email addresses, meaning only people on your list can open the files. Download tracking lets you see exactly who downloaded a transfer and when, once you enable it on a transfer.
