What Hoodik is
Hoodik is cloud storage that encrypts files on your device before they are uploaded. Its Starter plan includes 100 GB and Plus includes 500 GB; both allow unlimited users. Files and folders can be shared with view or edit permissions, and markdown notes support collaboration and version history. Hoodik hashes filenames and search queries on the device, allowing its server to compare fingerprints rather than read the terms. The maker says file keys use X25519 and ML-KEM-768 wrapping and do not reach its servers. Cloud customers can choose EU or US storage, and the maker says its object storage is designed for 99.999999999% annual durability. Free apps are available for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Android; Windows and Linux users can use the web app. Hoodik also offers a Docker guide for self-hosting on a home server, Raspberry Pi, NAS, or Linux machine, with S3-compatible storage options. The macOS app includes a local MCP server with 13 file and note tools for AI clients such as Claude Desktop and Cursor.
