Fliko is built for the files you would not email or text: passports, contracts, board decks, credit cards, private photos. Send them with built-in expiry, locked viewers, and one-tap revoke. You decide who can open them, how many times, and for how long. Once it expires, it is gone. SIMPLE TO USE Pick a file. Set how long it lives. Share the link. Recipients open it in any browser, no app or account needed. YOU STAY IN CONTROL Set your file to expire after a time, a view count, or both. Revoke any share from the app at any time, even after it has been opened. SEE WHO OPENED IT Each share has its own open log. If something is opened by someone you did not expect, revoke it with one tap. LOCKED-DOWN VIEWER Sensitive shares open in a protected viewer. The content blanks out in any screenshot or screen recording, and you get a real-time alert the moment one is attempted. ENCRYPTED ON YOUR DEVICE Files are encrypted with AES-256-GCM on your phone before they leave it. Our servers store only the ciphertext. We cannot read your files. NO ACCOUNT FOR RECIPIENTS Send to anyone. They open the link in any browser. No app install, no signup, no friction. FREE, NO ADS Fliko is completely free. No ads. No tracking. No surprises. WHO IT IS FOR Founders, ops, finance, legal, HR teams, and anyone who exchanges sensitive documents every day.
