Understand the technology behind instant peer-to-peer file transfers
P2P file sharing is a method of transferring files directly between two devices, without uploading them to a central server. When you use Berb, your file goes directly from your computer to the recipient’s—encrypted and fast.
This is powered by WebRTC, a real-time browser-based communication protocol that creates secure, temporary connections between peers. The file doesn’t touch any server and never gets stored anywhere except your devices.
This means: no cloud, no storage limits, no middlemen, and full privacy.
Yes. All file transfers happen over encrypted WebRTC connections. The data is never stored on any server and is only visible to you and the recipient.
Berb does not impose limits, since files go directly between devices. However, performance may depend on your internet connection and device memory.
Nope! Berb runs entirely in the browser. Just open the link and you're ready to send or receive files.
Berb works on most modern desktop and mobile browsers. For best results, use the latest version of Chrome, Safari, or Firefox.
Once the sender shares a connection code or link, the recipient opens it and the transfer starts instantly—no sign-up or account needed.
