How it works

Velravio is built around a plain idea: you choose a city, and your files live there. Here is the path from sign-up to export.

Sign-up fixes the zone

When you create an account you pick one of twelve zones. That zone owns the account, and every file you upload is written to storage in that city. Zones are independent: an account in Warsaw cannot read one in Helsinki, and we never copy data between them. To move cities, export your account and sign up again in the other zone. We will not move it silently.

Upload two ways, one result

From the browser, drag files into the workspace. From a script, send a single PUT (see the API docs). Both store the bytes, compute the SHA-256 and return the size and hash, with a Digest header.

A share link works for 1 hour, 1 day, 7 days or 30 days. You can add an access code, which the person types before the download starts. The link counts downloads, and when it expires a background job removes it. The share page shows the file's SHA-256 so the person can check what they received.

Check integrity after a transfer

Every file card shows the full SHA-256. Download responses include Digest: sha-256=... and an ETag. Run sha256sum on the file and compare. If the strings match, the bytes are intact.

Export, or leave

Ask for an export and the zone streams a zip of every file plus a manifest.csv with names, sizes, hashes and dates. Deleting the account removes the files from the zone and cannot be undone.

Limits in the beta

200 MB per account, 50 MB per file, 7-day trash, share lifetimes of 1h/1d/7d/30d, up to 20 API tokens.
