Drop a file.
Ship a link.
FolderChute watches the folders you choose and uploads new files to your own Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2 bucket. A time-limited share link is on your clipboard before you switch apps.
How it works
Set it up once. Then just drop files.
Choose your folders
Pick one or more folders to watch — your screenshots folder, an exports directory, anywhere files land.
Connect your bucket
Add your Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2 credentials. Files upload directly from your Mac to your storage.
Paste the link
Every new file is uploaded automatically and a share link is copied to your clipboard, ready to paste.
Features
Small app. Serious plumbing.
Multiple folders
Watch as many folders as you like. Everything ships to the same bucket, organized by date.
Links that expire
Choose how long links stay valid — 15 minutes to 7 days. Re-copy a fresh link anytime from the menu bar.
Your own storage
Bring your own Amazon S3 or Cloudflare R2 bucket. No middleman servers, no accounts, no telemetry.
Keychain security
Your secret access key is stored in the macOS Keychain, never in plain-text preferences.
Crash recovery
A persistent ledger resumes interrupted uploads and catches files added while the app wasn't running.
Offline-aware
No connection? Uploads queue and resume automatically, with exponential-backoff retries on failure.
Pricing
One price. One Mac. Forever.

Privacy
Your files never touch our servers.
FolderChute uploads directly from your Mac to storage you control, over TLS, signed with your own credentials. There is no FolderChute cloud, no analytics, and nothing to sign up for.
