Why Beembridge Exists

Three problems no other tool solves together

Ecosystem lock-in

It only works if everyone is on the same platform.

Install Beembridge once and it works with every device running Beembridge, regardless of platform. iPhone to Linux. Android to Windows. Every combination, every time.

File size restrictions

Your files are too big for the free tier.

No file size limits, ever. Transfers are direct device-to-device with no cloud middleman. If the network can move it, Beembridge will move it.

Privacy

"Private" tools still route data through servers.

In local mode, data never leaves your network. In online mode, the STUN server handles discovery and then exits. The code is open source, so you can verify for yourself

How It Works

Three modes. One app. Every situation.

Beembridge adapts to where you and the other person are: same room, different country, or not even on the same app.

01

Same network

Local Mode

  • Instant peer discovery, no manual pairing
  • No account needed
  • File data never leaves your local network
02

Cross-network P2P

Online Mode

  • Works across cities and countries
  • STUN server handles discovery only, then exits
  • File data is never relayed through Beembridge
03

No install required

Browser Mode

  • Any browser, any device, no download
  • No account required
  • Fully interoperable with app users
Competitive Comparison

Nothing else checks every box
