WeTransfer gives educators, students, and academic teams a straightforward way to share files and collect feedback on them. Recipients can open the transfer in their browser, leave comments on individual files, and mark favorites, while the sender keeps full control over the transfer details and comment settings after sending.
Collaborate on every transfer
Coordinating feedback on student work, lesson materials, or research drafts usually means untangling a long email thread to figure out who said what about which file. WeTransfer anchors comments to the specific file they belong to inside a browser preview, so a tutor's note on a particular page of a dissertation or a peer's reaction to a design submission stays connected to the source material. Recipients can comment and mark favorites without downloading anything or creating an account, which removes a common barrier when working with students or external collaborators. You receive an email notification each time a new comment arrives, so you always know where a review stands. From the transfer detail page, you can rename the transfer, update the description, or adjust comment permissions at any point after sending, with no need to re-upload.
Our features are designed to minimize how much of your data we — or anyone else — can access, so you can keep what's yours, yours.

All your questions answered.
Yes. Anyone with access to the transfer can open it in their browser, view files in the preview, and leave comments on individual files without signing up or downloading anything. If they are not logged in, they will be asked to enter their name and email address before commenting. You receive an email notification each time a new comment is added.
Supported preview formats include PDFs, images such as JPEG and PNG, common Office document formats like DOCX, PPTX, and XLSX, audio files, and video up to 300 MB. This covers most of what typically circulates in an academic setting, from written assignments and slide decks to recorded presentations and design portfolios. Recipients can choose which individual files to download rather than getting everything at once.
Go to your Transfers panel, open the transfer, scroll to Extra settings, expand Comments, and select your preferred option. Disabling comments hides existing ones from recipients without deleting them, so re-enabling later restores the full comment history. This is useful when a feedback period has closed and you want to prevent further input on a submitted assignment.
Yes. From the transfer detail page you can rename the transfer and revise the description at any time after sending, without re-uploading the files. This is handy when you need to clarify instructions for a brief, add a deadline note, or correct a title you spotted was wrong after the transfer had already gone out.
Every plan includes password protection, which lets you lock a transfer so only recipients who know the password can open it. You can also enable restricted access, which limits downloads to a specific list of email addresses you define. Both options are available on all plans and can be set before sending or updated from the transfer detail page afterwards. The password is never included in the transfer notification email, so you share it with recipients separately.
