What DaemonClient Drive is
DaemonClient Drive stores files on infrastructure you own, encrypting them on your device before they are uploaded. Files are divided into chunks and protected with AES-256-GCM. The site says the keys remain on your machine; each chunk has a unique nonce, and authentication tags verify integrity when data is downloaded. Its client code—including the encryption, chunking, and key-derivation logic—is public. In a browser, video playback can fetch and decrypt only the chunks needed for streaming. The live command-line client supports scripted uploads, directory synchronization, backups, and remote-file listings.
To set up the service, you connect cloud-provider credentials and a Telegram bot token; it then provisions a private server and database on your infrastructure. The free plan costs nothing, advertises unlimited storage, and does not require a credit card or monthly fee. The web app supports modern browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Standalone CLI binaries are listed for Linux x64, Windows, and macOS. The native desktop sync app and native iOS and Android apps, including Files app integration, are marked as coming soon.
