The Flow file system

One file system for the whole company.

All your documents in one place, organised in spaces, with the same folders on Mac, Windows, the browser and your phone. Share, search and recover earlier versions without switching tools.

The same folders, on every device. Here is how it works, chapter by chapter.

01

On your computer, in the browser and on your phone

Flow shows up in Finder and File Explorer as a normal folder: you open, save and move documents with the apps you already use. Files download when you need them, and the ones you choose always stay on your computer. In the browser you find the same folders on any device, and your colleagues' changes reach everyone in real time. On your phone you have the apps for iPhone and Android.

  • On Mac and Windows

    You find it in Finder and File Explorer, as a normal folder.

    With the Flow app you browse your spaces, upload photos and scanned documents and share them with a link.

Your data: where it is and how it is protected

Keep your documents in the European storage managed by Flow, in compliance with the GDPR.

In the managed service your documents are stored in Flow's European cloud. Uploads go through malware checks, within the set size limit; connections to the service are encrypted in transit; identical files count only once, so you pay for the space you really use. If you prefer to host Flow on your own infrastructure, you can choose the on-prem version.

You can also connect your company's storage: an Azure Blob account, S3-compatible storage or a NAS through MinIO. You move documents between the managed storage and yours: in Flow you keep working as always. To get started, you import the files you already have on Azure or S3: the originals stay where they are and the copies appear in Flow.

A space for every team, project or company

The file system is organised in spaces, each with its own people and folders. For each space you decide who can read, edit or share. You keep the most sensitive folders for the people who really need them. While you work on a file you can lock it: the changes stay yours until you have finished.

ProjectsTeam space · 6 people
  • People and rolesEveryone with their own role: who runs the space, who edits, who reads.
  • ChatA dedicated channel, for the members of the space only.
  • CalendarYou share it with the group and see it in Outlook too.
  • AutomationsThey start from a message or an event in the space.
  • AI assistants and API keysThey see this space and only this one.

Whoever joins the space finds files, chat and calendar straight away. When someone leaves, access closes, including the files synced on their computer.

You also have My Flow, your personal space: only you can see it.

Inside the space, you set permissions folder by folder.

04

Open files without downloading them

Preview documents, images, videos, technical drawings and 3D models right in the browser, without installing other software.

Edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint online, even with your colleagues at the same time.

05

Share with a link, without losing control

Share a file or folder with a link protected by a password and an expiry date. Whoever receives it gets straight in, without signing up: they view the documents and, if you ask, approve or reject each file with a note. The answers come back to Flow.

06

Describe what you are looking for

Search by name, or write a sentence as you would say it to a colleague: Flow understands file type, folder, period and content. It shows you results you can check, with the path to get there.

If you use Claude or ChatGPT, you connect them only to the folders you choose: they work on the original documents, without copying them elsewhere.

07

Versions, trash and time machine

Every save keeps the previous version: if a file is overwritten, you go back to the right one. With the time machine you pick a moment in the past, see how files and folders were and recover a file, a folder or a whole space. What you delete stays in the trash for the period set by the administrators. Versions and the time machine are included in plans with versioning.
