The Filemail alternative, made in Europe
More on the free tier. No account to start.
Filemail’s free tier needs an account and stops at 5 GB. Yungle sends 10 GB with no account, and gives password links away for free.
In short
Yungle sends up to 10 GB free with no account, with password links and the API on the free tier; Filemail’s free tier sends 5 GB or less and needs a free account. Yungle stores every file encrypted in Germany.

- You need SSO or a compliance programme with named certifications for your own procurement.

Questions, answered.
Ask us something elseHow big a file can I send for free?
Up to 10 GB per transfer, with no account, as often as you like.
Does Yungle have an API like Filemail?
Yes: a documented REST API with signed webhooks, a command-line client, and a hosted MCP server an AI assistant connects to with one sign-in. Transfers, contacts and webhooks work on the free tier; collections need a paid plan.
Are files encrypted?
Always. Every file is encrypted with its own key before it is written to storage, and you can choose end-to-end encryption for a transfer, where the key never leaves your browser.
