How to use it

there is not very much to learn

1. Pick a file

On the home page, drag a file onto the dotted box, or click the box and choose one. One file at a time, up to 2 GB. Folders are zipped in the browser before upload.

2. Wait for the link

While the file uploads, a progress bar will tick up. When it finishes you will see a short URL like https://taskmetrics.ink/d/abc23xyz. Copy it with the button next to it.

3. Share, then forget

Send the link to whoever needs the file. They can open it in any browser; no account required. After 24 hours the file is permanently deleted and the link returns a 404.


FAQ

Are my files encrypted?
Yes. Each upload gets its own key, derived in your browser. Files are encrypted before they touch the server, and the key travels in the URL fragment, which browsers do not send to servers. We could not read your file if we wanted to.
Can I share with non-TaskMetrics users?
Yes — there is no such thing as a TaskMetrics user. The link works for anyone with a browser.
What is the maximum file size?
2 GB per file. If you have something bigger, split it first; split on Linux/macOS or 7-Zip on Windows both work fine.
Do you store any logs?
Standard request logs (timestamp, path, status code, response size) are kept for 7 days for abuse prevention. We do not log the User-Agent header, do not log query strings, and do not associate IPs with any persistent identifier.
Is there an API?
Not at the moment. If enough people ask, a small POST endpoint that returns JSON is on the table. For now, curl against the same form works if you set the right multipart fields — see the project source.
