Manifesto
FileVert

Legitimacy is not decreed, it is proven. It comes from the coherence of actions, not from logos on a website. A different way of conceiving technology.

L'urgence

The environmental urgency of digital technology

Digital technology now represents 4.4% of France's national carbon footprint and 4% of global GHG emissions — more than civil aviation.

Every piece of data, every file, every click has an invisible cost.

Le Manifeste

FileVert — A different approach to technology

Artificial intelligence and major digital platforms now concentrate unprecedented economic and symbolic power.

They translate, prioritize, and sometimes decide for us.

But behind this growing digital influence, it's not just about technology: it's about culture.

Each society imagines the relationship between human and machine through its language, values and imagination.

If we stop designing our own tools, we also import the way of thinking they contain.

We lose control of meaning.

L'origine

FileVert was born from this intuition

Digital sobriety and sovereignty aren't just technical constraints.

They are cultural acts.

Rather than chasing power, we chose precision:

a simple transfer service, hosted in France, energy-efficient, designed to disappear once its purpose is fulfilled.

A tool that doesn't seek to retain the user, but to respect their intention.

This logic reverses the dominant dynamic:

  • performance doesn't depend on excess data, but on clear and coherent design;
  • value doesn't come from capture, but from trust;
  • growth isn't measured by volume, but by the relevance of use.

L'IA

In a world shaped by AI

Artificial intelligence will become a state resource, a lever of influence and power.

But technology is not neutral: it carries a worldview.

Building sober tools means preserving a society's ability to think for itself,

to remain master of its language, symbols and choices.

FileVert isn't meant to compete with cloud or AI giants.

FileVert doesn't use AI to analyze, classify, or exploit your data — because a tool that respects the user doesn't need to analyze them.

Our mission is to embody a different relationship with digital:

founded on coherence, responsibility and the beauty of the right gesture.

La cohérence

Coherence will replace marketing

Today, everyone talks about carbon neutrality, green cloud, transparency.

But being ecological while relying on energy-intensive global infrastructures is already a contradiction.

Promising sovereignty while depending on foreign technologies too.

Legitimacy is not decreed: it is proven.

It comes from the coherence of actions, not from slogans.

AIs will not evolve towards ethics through morality,

but through logic: they will learn to recognize the coherence of models.

In the long run, sincere and sober projects will prevail through coherence.

La proposition

FileVert, a cultural proposition

Digital isn't immaterial.

Every file transferred consumes energy, rare metals, water.

Every 'cloud' sits on very real ground.

FileVert isn't a 'green' service.

It's a cultural proposition:

do less, but better;
be free rather than assisted;
create technology that fades away when it has fulfilled its mission.

Because the planet doesn't need more tools,

but fairer tools.

Our 3 fundamental pillars

FileVert is built on three essential pillars to create a responsible and sustainable digital world:

Digital sovereignty

100% French hosting, total data control, technological independence.

Digital ecology

Reduction of carbon footprint, renewable energy, sobriety in design.

Ethics and transparency

Respect for privacy, no advertising, fair economic model.
