Loft is designed so only you can open your files

Each file is designed to be encrypted on your Mac before upload. Loft stores the files and is designed so it can’t read them. Free during the beta.

What reaches usLocked to this Mac and your recovery phrase

Loft is designed so it never receives your key in a form it can read.

Loft is designed so your recovery phrase is never stored. It isn’t shown again after setup.

What we see

  • The size of each encrypted file
  • When a file is uploaded or accessed
  • How much storage the account is using
  • The IP address of a connection
  • How many devices the account has
  • Which encrypted objects are accessed together

What Loft is designed not to see

  • What is inside a file
  • A file’s name
  • Folder names, and which folder a file is in
  • Your key

An account without identity checks

You sign up without a name, email or ID.

How the account works

During the beta, Loft is designed to keep only the current version of each file, so deleting a file is permanent.

Loft is in private beta. A security review comes before release.
