Collect engineering files from anyone, no hassle
Generate an upload request link and send it to vendors, contractors, consultants, or field teams. CAD drawings, technical specs, inspection reports, and survey data drop straight into your WeTransfer workspace, and you get an email notification each time something arrives. No shared drive to configure, no attachment threads, no follow-up emails asking where the files are.
Request once, receive from anyone
Engineering teams are always waiting on files from someone, whether that is a structural report from a third-party consultant, updated drawings from a design firm, equipment data sheets from a supplier, or test results from a lab. WeTransfer upload requests give you a dedicated link you can paste into a project management tool, a contractor brief, or a simple email, and incoming files route straight to your workspace without requiring any complicated setup on the sender's side. Every file arrives exactly as it was created, with no compression or re-encoding, so large CAD packages, high-resolution PDF sets, and dense data files all land at their original fidelity and are ready to use immediately. Supported file types can be previewed directly in your browser before you download, making it easy to confirm the right deliverable has arrived before routing it to the rest of the project team. Both you and anyone uploading to your request need a free WeTransfer account, and a new request takes only a moment to create and share.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Log in to your WeTransfer account, click Request Files on the homepage, give the request a title, and optionally add instructions, such as preferred file formats, naming conventions, or a submission deadline. WeTransfer generates a link you can share directly with any contractor, consultant, or supplier. Files they upload go straight to the Received tab of your account, and you get an email notification each time a new upload arrives.
No. Anyone uploading files to your request just needs a free WeTransfer account. There is no requirement for a paid plan on their side, which means external consultants, suppliers, or contractors can send you files without any subscription or payment involved.
WeTransfer handles any file type without compression or quality loss, so CAD files, DWG and DXF drawings, 3D models, PDFs, technical specifications, spreadsheets, ZIP archives, inspection photos, and video walkthroughs all come through at their original fidelity. Large file packages from design or survey teams arrive exactly as exported, ready to open in your engineering tools without any re-downloading or quality checks.
Yes. When creating an upload request, you can include a message with specific instructions, for example which file formats to use, how to name drawings, or which revision to include. Those instructions are visible to everyone who opens the request link, which reduces back-and-forth and makes it far less likely that a supplier sends the wrong version or format.
All uploaded files appear in the Received tab of your WeTransfer account, organized by request. You can preview supported file types, including PDFs, images, and video, directly in your browser before downloading, which makes it straightforward to verify a submittal is correct before passing it to the project team. To stop accepting new uploads once a project phase is complete, you can close the request at any time from your Transfers panel.
