L-01
Previews, no download
PDFs, images, video, audio and spreadsheets open full screen in the browser, with a workbook showing its sheet tabs. Nobody has to fill up a phone with copies of the price list to read it once.
A library that searches inside the documents
Folders down the side, files in the middle, and a search box that reads the pages rather than the file names.
Folders that behave like folders
Drag files in and drop them where they belong. There is nothing to learn here, which is deliberate: the people who need a data sheet at half past seven in the morning are never going to sit through training on how to get one.
- Drag and drop uploads, with undo and redo for when something lands in the wrong place.
- Tags, for the files that honestly belong in two folders at once.
- A recycle bin that restores, so a deletion at four in the afternoon is not a crisis.
- Recently viewed, for the document somebody had open yesterday and cannot name today.
Type a part number, get the data sheet
Searching by file name only works if whoever uploaded it named the file well, and they did not. On Premium the search reads the text inside PDFs and Office documents, so a data sheet turns up because of a number printed on page four of it.
L-02
Several at a time
Tick a few files and send the lot in one go. On a phone that is the normal share sheet, so they go out through WhatsApp or email the same way any other file would.
L-03
Straight into an email
On a desktop, sharing builds a real email draft with the files already attached, so the person at the other end receives a document rather than a link.
L-04
Locks that hold
Limit a file to certain departments or certain people, or put a password on it. Every check runs on the server, before the file is sent, so opening developer tools achieves nothing.
L-05
Read-only Policies
Handbooks and policies stream into a reader with no download button and no file URL anywhere in the page. People can read them; they cannot walk off with them.
L-06 / plans
Which tier holds what
Starter keeps ten files. Standard makes that unlimited and adds bulk download, bulk sharing and department locks. Premium adds in-document search, file passwords, per-person visibility and read-only Policies.
The same library, one-handed
The people who need a document most are rarely sitting at a computer. Every screen is built for a thumb as well as a mouse: a bottom tab bar, long-press menus, targets you can hit with cold hands.
Other drawers in the same cabinet
F-02
Notices and news
Urgent notices that scroll across every screen and arrive without anyone reloading anything. Company news for the longer pieces.
F-03
People and contacts
A staff directory, invites by email, and a book of the outside numbers everyone keeps losing.
F-04
Security and access
Its own login, download links that expire, and locks checked on the server rather than hidden with CSS.
F-05
Analytics and the Command Centre
One admin screen for files, folders, people, news and every setting, with the figures alongside.
Give the filing cabinet an address
Ten files cost nothing and stay free forever. That is usually enough to find out whether anyone actually uses it, which is the only question that matters.
