Sync Anywhere

Iroh is a protocol for syncing data. It's Open source, connects devices directly, and works nearly anywhere.

Live collaborate on anything

Invite multiple users to a shared key-value store from any device. Iroh syncs for you, with hooks to read & write changes.

No central server required

Iroh establishes direct connections between devices for you, traversing across network address translation (NATs) with best-in-class connection rates.

Auto-resuming transfer

Work with data of any size, including sizes that don't fit on a fit on a single device.

Your own shared, programmable drive

Expose data as a shared folder on your computer or phone free-to-use direct connections. Write code that reacts to changes & write back to the drive on the fly.
