The self-hostable alternative to Dropbox and Google Drive. Upload, organize, and share files from your own infrastructure.
Bring your own storage — local disk, S3, R2, or Vercel Blob. One env var to switch. Full type-safe API with tRPC.
Built for power users
Everything you need to manage files
Locker gives you the full toolkit for file management, sharing, and collaboration—all self-hosted on your own terms.
Storage Provider Agnostic
Swap between local filesystem, AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, or Vercel Blob with a single environment variable. Your data, your infrastructure.
Search Inside Images & PDFs
Find files by what's in them, not just the name. Locker transcribes images and PDFs into searchable text so every document is discoverable.
Virtual Bash Shell
Navigate your files with familiar commands. Use ls, cd, find, cat, and grep through a virtual filesystem API.
Workspace Teams
Invite team members with role-based access. Organize files across workspaces with granular permissions.
Secure by Default
Email/password and Google OAuth authentication. Sessions managed server-side with encrypted cookies.
API Keys
Programmatic access to your files through API keys. Build integrations and automate workflows with full tRPC type safety.
Why self-host?
Full control over your data
No vendor lock-in, no surprise pricing, no third party reading your files. Deploy on your own servers and keep everything under your roof.
Type-safe
