## Description

KeibiDrop turns your Unraid box into the always-on peer of an encrypted peer-to-peer folder mount. Your computer mounts that shared folder and opens files on demand, so only the bytes you touch move, end-to-end encrypted with hybrid post-quantum key exchange. Built for homelab users who want remote file access with no account, no cloud, and no FUSE required on the serving side.

## Common questions

### How do I pair two computers for the first time?

Install KeibiDrop on both computers, enter the other peer's XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX code to establish the connection, then open or share files. The app also displays your own code to send to the other person.

### Can I run KeibiDrop on a NAS as the always-on side?

Yes, the docs describe a NAS or home server as the always-on end, including running KeibiDrop on a NAS, sharing read-only folders, and editing from it in DaVinci Resolve.

### If I edit a file in the mounted remote folder, does the change return to the other computer?

Yes, files stream when read and edits sync back. The docs also include a guide for handling conflict files.

### Can two devices connect through NAT, firewalls, or guest WiFi?

The documentation includes a guide for working through firewalls and guest WiFi, so use that setup path when the devices are behind restrictive networks.

### What does the free tier provide, and what do paid plans add?

The free community tier includes secure direct transfers with a shared public relay on a best-effort basis. Paid plans add dedicated relay bandwidth, regional relay options, commercial desktop app licensing, and priority support.
