OBJECT
STORAGE.

Buckets and access keys that speak the S3 API — for server backups with restic or rclone, for files your application stores through an S3 SDK, or for archives. One flat monthly price with transfer included: no per-gigabyte download fees, no request charges, no surprises on the day you restore.

backup

Off-site server backups

Point restic, Kopia or rclone at a bucket and run it nightly. Encrypted on your side, stored away from the server it protects — and there is no per-download fee to restore it (it counts toward your monthly transfer, like uploads).

cloud_upload

Files for your application

User uploads, generated reports, media: store them through any S3 SDK and hand out pre-signed links for downloads, so files never pass through your web server.

inventory_2

Archives and second copies

Old projects, logs, the extra copy the 3-2-1 rule asks for. Checksummed storage that notices and repairs corruption, at a price you know in advance.

Plans

Pick a size — you can upgrade to a larger one from your dashboard at any time, paying only the difference for the rest of the period. Prepay 3, 6 or 12 months for a lower monthly rate.

Billing term

Access keysYour access key and secret are created with the account and shown once in your dashboard, where you also create your buckets (up to 10).

One price. That is the bill.

Most object storage looks cheap per gigabyte and then adds charges for every request, every gigabyte downloaded, and early deletion. The day you restore a whole server is the day that bill arrives. Here the plan price covers it.

  • check_circleNo download (egress) fees
  • check_circleNo minimum storage period
  • check_circleNo retrieval fees
  • check_circleNo setup fee

What you get

api

S3 API

Multipart uploads, pre-signed links and the usual object operations. Path-style addressing, region us-west.

folder_open

Up to 10 buckets

Create and delete buckets from your dashboard. Your plan size is shared across them.

lock

Private by default

Every request is signed with your key. Share single objects with pre-signed links that expire.

swap_vert

Transfer included

Monthly transfer equal to your plan size. Past it transfers slow down — never cut off, never billed per GB.

verified

Checksummed storage

Mirrored drives with end-to-end checksums that find and repair silent corruption.

https

HTTPS only

One endpoint with a valid certificate; plain HTTP is redirected to HTTPS.

Object storage or a storage box?

Same location, same flat pricing and transfer rules. The difference is how your tools connect.

Good to know before you order

  • infoOne region: United States (West). Data is not replicated to a second location.
  • infoPath-style addressing (endpoint/bucket/key). Most tools have a "force path style" option.
  • infoNo public buckets or static website hosting yet — use pre-signed links to share.
  • infoNo object versioning or Object Lock yet.

Questions

Does it work with my S3 tools?expand_more

Yes — it speaks the S3 API. Point the AWS CLI, rclone, restic, Kopia, Duplicati or an S3 SDK at the endpoint shown in your dashboard, with your access key, the region us-west, and path-style addressing (most tools call it "force path style"). Multipart uploads and pre-signed links work as they do on S3.

Is there really no charge per request or per download?expand_more

None. You pay the monthly price for the plan, and that includes as many requests as you make and monthly transfer equal to the plan size. Past the transfer allowance uploads and downloads slow down; nothing is billed.

What happens if I use all my monthly transfer?expand_more

Uploads and downloads slow to 2 Mbit/s for the rest of the month (on up to two connections at a time). Nothing is cut off, nothing extra is charged, and the allowance resets on the 1st. Uploads and downloads both count toward it.

What happens when my buckets reach the plan size?expand_more

New uploads are refused until you delete something or upgrade to a larger size, which you can do from your dashboard at any time. Reading and deleting keep working, so you can always get your data back out.

Can I move to a larger size later?expand_more

Yes, from your dashboard, at any time. You pay the difference for the rest of the current period, the extra space and transfer are there within a minute, and your buckets and keys do not change.

Can I make a bucket public or host a website from it?expand_more

Not at launch. Every request needs your access key, or a pre-signed link you generate for a single object. That keeps your data private by default, and pre-signed links cover sharing a file or letting your application's users download one.

Is there versioning or Object Lock?expand_more

Not yet. If your backup software needs immutable (locked) storage — some Veeam setups do — this is not the right fit today. restic and Kopia keep their own snapshot history, so overwriting a file does not lose its older versions.

How is my data stored?expand_more

In one location in the western United States, on mirrored drives with checksums that detect and repair silent corruption. It is not copied to a second region. Object storage is often where backups go; for anything irreplaceable, keep one more copy somewhere else.

Object storage or a storage box?expand_more

Object storage if your tools speak S3 or your application stores files through an S3 SDK. A storage box if you use SFTP, rsync or Borg over SSH. Both have the same flat pricing and transfer rules, and both live in the same place.
