Built for power users
Locker gives you the full toolkit for file management, sharing, and collaborationāall self-hosted on your own terms.
Attach multiple storage backends per workspace. Designate a primary store, fan out writable replicas for redundancy, and ingest files from read-only sources.
Find files by what's in them, not just the name. Locker transcribes images and PDFs into searchable text so every document is discoverable.
Navigate your files with familiar commands. Use ls, cd, find, cat, and grep through a virtual filesystem API.
Invite team members with role-based access. Organize files across workspaces with granular permissions.
Email/password and Google OAuth authentication. Sessions managed server-side with encrypted cookies.
Programmatic access to your files through API keys. Build integrations and automate workflows with full tRPC type safety.
Why self-host?
No vendor lock-in, no surprise pricing, no third party reading your files. Deploy on your own servers and keep everything under your roof.
We moved 4TB of team files off Google Drive in a weekend. Same S3 bucket we already had, fraction of the cost.
Bring your own backend
Attach multiple stores per workspace. Choose a primary for writes, add replicas for redundancy, and ingest from read-only sourcesāeach with its own credentials.
Store files directly on your server. Zero config, zero cost.
The industry standard. Reliable, scalable, globally distributed.
S3-compatible with zero egress fees. Great for bandwidth-heavy workloads.
Serverless-native storage. One token, no infrastructure to manage.
