Sendme is a Rust CLI tool for sending files and directories over the internet, built on the iroh and iroh-blobs protocols. It handles NAT hole punching with relay fallback, provides blake3-verified streaming with resumable downloads, and encrypts connections with TLS using location-transparent 256-bit node ids.

Use cases

  • send files to a friend over the internet without a server
  • transfer a directory between machines with NAT hole punching
  • scp alternative that works behind firewalls
  • quickly copy files between two computers using a ticket
  • resume interrupted large file downloads
  • send files without exposing your IP address

When to choose

  • you need peer-to-peer file transfer without setting up a server
  • both peers may be behind NAT and you want automatic hole punching
  • you want verified, resumable transfers of files or whole directories
  • you want a simple ticket-based workflow like scp but over the internet

When to avoid

  • you need a persistent file-sharing service with a web UI
  • you require transfers through a central server with user accounts
  • you need to send to many recipients simultaneously
  • you need transfers that outlive the sender process running
