Capsule - Easy File Transfers
Secure anonymous file transfers via CLI or browser
What this is
Encrypted, self-destructing file transfers via a memorable three-word link, usable from the browser, terminal or Android app; open source and self-hostable, aimed at technical users rather than a dedicated mobile app.
Our one-line summary — not the founder’s tagline.
- How it works
- Upload a file from the browser, terminal, or Android app and share a link built from three readable words; the file is end-to-end encrypted on-device using the age format with a BIP39 mnemonic passphrase, and deleted from the server an hour later.
- What's different
- True end-to-end encryption across all clients (web, CLI, Android) with fully interoperable encrypt/decrypt between them, plus open source and self-hostable.
- Best for
- Technical users moving a file between devices or people who want it gone after an hour, rather than a permanent hosted link.

No money. No seat. It goes on your record — and in 28 days reality settles it.

Security. Launched 18d ago on PeerPush, where it placed #472. Today, it's been quiet for 15 days and the price has started to bleed.
Already bleeding a little every day, and it accelerates the longer it stays quiet.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”
The market viewHow this launch is priced and ranked in our league — the investor side of the page.
ranked by the reality anchor, not the market price
It placed #472 on PeerPush with 13 votes.
No matter how much money goes in. There is no pump here — you can't make yourself right by buying more. The line only moves on things that actually happened: an award, revenue that grew, a new platform, code that shipped — or silence.
En eski 4 hareket bu listede yok — toplam 16 olay var. 1 quiet day in between are left out — nothing happened on them. A launch that goes quiet eases down a little at a time — never a cliff you could have run from the night before.
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.
About
About Capsule is the fastest way to move a file between devices or people without giving it a permanent home. Upload from the browser, terminal, or Android app and share a link built from three readable words, like raven-quiet-summit. You can say it out loud across a room. An hour later, the file is gone from our servers. Nothing to clean up, nothing left behind. Key features - True end-to-end encryption in every client: web, CLI, and Android. Files are encrypted on your device using the age format with a BIP39 mnemonic passphrase, and the server only ever stores ciphertext. - Fully interoperable clients. Encrypt on your phone, decrypt in your terminal, or the other way around. - A polished CLI with progress bars, QR codes, and shell completions. Install via Homebrew, COPR, Scoop, or one curl command. - Native Android app with share-sheet integration, QR scanning, and upload history. - Open source, AGPL server you can self-host, and every client can point at your own instance. What makes it different No accounts, no email walls, no "free tier" nag. Most transfer services encrypt in transit but hold the keys themselves. Capsule can't read your files even if it wanted to, and deletion after one hour is the default behavior, not a paid setting. What you can expect Get a shareable link in seconds. Move files between your phone and laptop without cables or cloud accounts. Send something sensitive knowing exactly who can open it and exactly when it stops existing.

The board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
