Upload Files -- Actually, Skip the Upload
Most file transfer services make you upload your file to their server, wait, then have your recipient download it from their server. Two transfers for one file. Perkoon just sends it directly. Your browser talks to their browser. No upload step. No waiting.

Create Session

Drop Your Files
Drag and drop any files into the session.
Direct Transfer
Files stream to the recipient's device via P2P. No cloud upload.
Direct Transfer vs Cloud Upload
| Feature | Perkoon (Direct) | Cloud Upload |
|---|---|---|
| Upload step | No upload — direct stream | Upload first, then share link |
| Size limit | None | 2GB – 50GB |
| Privacy | Files never stored | Files on provider's servers |
| Speed | Direct transfer speed | Upload + download time |
Skip the Upload Step
Skip the Upload Queue
Traditional file transfer: upload to server (slow), wait for processing, recipient downloads (slow again). P2P: stream directly to recipient. One step instead of three.
No Server Storage
Files go from your device to theirs. Nothing stored on our infrastructure. This isn't a privacy policy — it's how the technology works.
No Size Restrictions
Without a server storing your files, there's nothing to enforce a file size limit on. Send what you need.
Same Speed, Half the Time
A 10GB file on a 50 Mbps connection: ~27 min to upload + ~27 min for them to download = 54 min on cloud services. With P2P, one 27-min transfer. Same speed, half the wait.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if the recipient is offline?
Hit send anyway. The transfer queues up and fires automatically when they join. Your tab needs to stay open, but theirs doesn't — they can show up whenever. For true offline delivery (close your laptop, send a link), use cloud storage.
Is there a file size limit?
No. P2P transfers go directly between devices — there's no server to enforce a cap. Tested up to 500GB+ in Chrome.
Do I need an account?
No. Create a session, drop files, share the 6-character code. That's it. No signup, no email, no password.
What browsers work?
Chrome, Edge, and Brave work best (unlimited file size). Firefox handles up to ~10GB. Safari up to ~4GB.
