Overview

Infinit is a peer-to-peer file transfer and storage platform that operates without relying on central cloud servers. It uses a decentralized network of users’ devices to store and move files, enabling large transfers securely and efficiently. The software runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. The business model was freemium: the free tier had limits on simultaneous transfers, while the paid tier removed these limits and added features like password-protected files. Infinit targeted creative professionals such as photographers and video editors, as well as businesses that need to share large files securely with employees and clients. The company was acquired by Docker in 2016. Its goal was to provide a secure, efficient alternative to traditional cloud storage and file sharing by leveraging a distributed network rather than centralized servers.
