Free 2 Days by Design

Technical architecture enforcing a 2-day maximum: voluntary systemic constraints, zero advertising, and forced deletion to guarantee truly responsible free service.

Voluntary technical constraints

An engineering system that translates philosophy into concrete automatic constraints

Strict 48h limit

Architecture that technically prevents any storage > 2 days.

No reminder emails

Short duration = no reminder emails needed. Email savings for everyone, less digital pollution.

Forced deletion

Automatic deletion without exception or extension possibility. Guaranteed anti-accumulation.

Speed priority

Interface optimized for immediate use: encouraging download within hours, not days.

Result: True quality free service, without hidden business model or intentional experience degradation

2 days: deliberate technical choice

Voluntary constraint hard-coded to make data exploitation impossible. An engineering system serving a philosophy.

😤 The usual free service trap

"Unlimited free" funded by extracting your data

Eternal storage accumulating your forgotten files

Opaque business model: you are the product

Punitive free tier: intentional experience degradation to force upgrade

Invasive advertising: monetizing your attention during use

FileVert's technical architecture

Absolute technical limit: 48h maximum, no exceptions possible (complicated and in free offer, without registration)

Zero advertising: no monetization of your attention during use

Unrestricted speed: no limitations unlike competitors, perfect for one-time use

No punitive free tier: refusal to intentionally degrade the free experience

How users discover the real benefits of 2 days

Perception evolution: from apparent constraint to concrete benefits

First reaction

"Only 2 days? That's restrictive compared to other services offering more."

Awareness

"Actually, it forces me to download quickly. I no longer let my links sit around."

Revelation

"It's more productive! Truly free without exploiting my data. And plus, controlled environmental impact."

Benefits of responsible free service

True free service

No hidden trade-offs, no data extraction to fund the service.

Total transparency

Clear business model: paid subscriptions fund the free tier.

Usage respect

2 days match the real needs for one-time sharing.

User education

Raises awareness about the true costs of digital and unlimited traps.

Credible alternative

Proves that another digital business model is possible.

Digital sobriety

Avoids unnecessary accumulation and reduces environmental impact.

"Chosen sobriety ≠ loss = relevance. Constraint becomes a virtue."
— FileVert Philosophy

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about 2-day free service

It's a voluntary architectural choice, not a commercial limitation. The 2 days are hard-coded in our system to make data exploitation technically impossible. This systemic constraint guarantees truly responsible free service: zero advertising, no data extraction, no hidden business model. Most 'unlimited free' services exploit you as a product - we refuse this model.
No, and it's intentional! FileVert's free offer is designed for one-time and immediate use. If you need longer durations (configurable 2 to 15 days), our Pro plans are for you. This clear separation prevents manipulative freemium where free service would be intentionally degraded to force upgrade. Each offer has its purpose and respects its users.
FileVert refuses 'punitive free tier'. We have: no invasive advertising, no artificial speed limitations, no extraction of your data for hidden funding, no intentional experience degradation. Our free service is funded by Pro subscriptions, not by exploiting you. It's a transparent and respectful business model, proving that a credible alternative to surveillance capitalism is possible.
For 95% of one-time sharing uses, yes! Our data shows most files are downloaded within the first hours. The 2 days encourage productive practice: you share, the recipient downloads quickly, no files lingering indefinitely. It's both more efficient and more ecological. If you regularly need more, it means your usage justifies a Pro subscription.
Transparent cross-subsidy model: Pro users fund the infrastructure that enables quality free service for everyone. No hidden business model. We believe it's possible and necessary to prove that a digital service can be free WITHOUT exploiting you. It's our contribution to more ethical and respectful digital practices.
Because 'more' isn't always better. Competitors' 'unlimited' offers often hide a trap: your data becomes their product, or the experience is intentionally degraded to force you to pay. Our 2 days are an assumed constraint that translates our values into technical architecture: digital sobriety, refusal of unnecessary accumulation, total transparency. It's a coherent philosophical and technical choice.
