What is Storra Cloud?
By Storra Team5 min read
If you have used storra.host, you already know the drill: upload a file, get a link, share it. It is fast, encrypted, and built for one-off transfers. Storra Cloud is the other half of that story - permanent storage with an account, a dashboard, and files that stay yours.
Quick share vs. permanent storage
| Feature | storra.host | Storra Cloud |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Quick encrypted sharing | Long-term file storage |
| Account | No sign-up needed | Sign in to manage files |
| Links | Share links (E2EE by default) | Permanent links that never expire |
| Organization | One file per upload | Folders, trash, overview, API |
Why we built it
Temporary links are great for sending a file once. They are not great when that file is something you need again next week, next month, or next year. People kept coming back to storra.host for files they wished they had kept in one place - configs, media libraries, project assets, backups of work-in-progress.
Storra Cloud is that place. Upload from the web dashboard, organize files in folders, share with permanent links, and upgrade when you need more space, private files, or API access. Same security mindset as storra.host - encryption at rest and in transit - but designed for files you intend to keep.
What you get
- A dashboard to browse, upload, and manage files - with trash, favorites, and usage overview.
- Permanent links that do not expire on the free plan, so embeds and shares keep working.
- Plans that scale - start free with 5 GB, upgrade for larger files, private storage, sharing, and API access. See pricing.
- Discord integration for teams already using storra.host workflows. Read our Discord guide.
When to use which
Use storra.host when you need to send a file right now - a screenshot, a video clip, a document for someone who does not have an account. Use Storra Cloud when the file is part of your workflow: assets you reuse, archives you curate, or anything you want to find again without re-uploading.
Get started
Create a free account - no credit card, no time limit. You get 5 GB of storage and permanent links on day one. When you are ready for more, see our plans or read the documentation to integrate with your apps.
