Portal is a command-line file transfer utility for sending files and folders between any two computers. It uses PAKE2 end-to-end encryption with a temporary password, preferring direct peer-to-peer transfer and falling back to a relay server.

Use cases

• send files from one computer to another from the terminal
• transfer files between machines without a cloud account
• securely share files with end-to-end encryption
• move files between computers on the same local network
• send a folder to a friend using a one-time password
• transfer files between different operating systems

When to choose

• you want fast, encrypted terminal-based file transfer with no accounts
• you need cross-platform support via Homebrew, Scoop, WinGet, or a curl installer
• you want direct LAN transfer with automatic relay fallback

When to avoid

• you need a GUI or browser-based transfer interface
• you need persistent hosting or resumable transfers of very large files
• you need transfers to multiple recipients at once
