It’s 2024. Let’s face it. File sharing is not that cool banana everyone talks about. 🍌 I don’t know about you but whenever someone mentions those two words to me, I think of: Boring office documents, email attachments, offices with cubicles, people in suits… My mind shouts “stay away from me!” Until one day I stopped and went through my emails and saw for myself the files I had been getting and sending. They are the illustrations I commissioned, they are the leases I signed, they are the photos I took, they are the presentations I created… They are hours and hours of hard work, they are my hopes and dreams, they are quite literally… my life. 🤯 It was that moment I realized, it’s not the files that are broken, it’s “file sharing” that is broken. It’s those soulless icons within an email, those generic Google Drive/DocSend/Dropbox links I had been getting that sucked the spirit out of it. After all, when the logos you poured your heart and sweat get compressed into a zip, how much cool is left there? That’s why we decided to build Peony. 🛠️ A bold new vision for what file sharing should be. A new way of sharing files that makes it all cool again. It’s the only product that pours as much attention to detail and quality to the way of sharing files as you poured into creating those files. Your files deserve to be shared beautifully. Today, we are launching Peony 0.5. It replaces WeTransfer, DocSend and Dropbox and lets you create a beautiful file sharing portal in 2 minutes with unparalleled security and analytics. Be sure to check these features out: ✨ 1. Your own file sharing portal to keep all your file shares in one place 2. Impress your recipients with personalization 3. Advanced security so only people you intended have access 4. Powerful analytics to boost engagement across the board I look forward to hearing your feedback! Lastly, why 0.5? Stay tuned for some exciting updates coming early next year.

Peony 0.5 is a real breakthrough in the world of file sharing! The app allows you to create a personalized file sharing portal in minutes, making the process much easier. Unlike WeTransfer or DocSend, Peony gives you more control and flexibility, allowing you to customize the site to your needs.

Great launch. Quick question: how do you address the challenges of keeping file-sharing portals organized and secure for both personal and professional use?

The investor data room example resonated with me - I look forward to trying this out!

I has a nice organized tone to it, it’s awesome for both personal and company use 🤌🏼

I've got to say I use WeTransfer A LOT & I have never thought that it was the best that file-sharing could reach, I'm glad you're bringing this to market. Have passed this on to a few friends & I've got no doubt they'll be using it in no time :)

Hey, I'm Damir and I'm the founding engineer behind Peony. Over the past few months I have been building Peony from the ground up using a modern tech stack to 10x my productivity. Happy to answer any questions.

Love how you're making file sharing actually exciting! As someone who constantly shares design files, this feels like exactly what I've been missing. Super curious about what the "0.5" means though... sounds intriguing!

Hi Everyone! I'm Seb, the lead designer here at Peony. I've been working at Peony for the last couple of months to craft the next big thing in file-sharing, and super excited to share it with you all. Super looking forward to chatting/answering any questions, and always looking for more ways to make doing anything with files a million times better.

Hey Deqian! Hehe it actually resonated to me cause file sharing is really hard but necessary. So I'm more than happy to see you changing the game. Wish you the best
