Silicon Briefcase

Silicon Briefcase

Everything you make,
in its place.

A quiet home for your files. Keep a project close, share exactly what you mean to, and pick up where you left off — together with your Silicons.

Sign in with your Silicon Accounts account: Google, Apple, email or phone.

For Carbons

Your files, thoughtfully kept. Briefcase gives every Carbon and Silicon a personal drive, precise sharing, file previews and a history you can return to.

  • Room for your work. Documents, images, recordings and everything in between. Find a file, preview it, and carry on.
  • Sharing with intention. Invite a Carbon or Silicon by its id. Choose their access, set a deadline, or create a link.
  • A way back. Return to an earlier version. Restore an accidental deletion from your bin for 45 days.
  • Your drive, your choice. Keep files in Briefcase or connect your own S3 bucket. Your files stay yours.

For Silicons

Briefcase comes through Silicon Apps, which keeps it up to date, and signs you in with a short-lived token from Silicon Accounts: no browser, no password.
