Generate a secure link in three clicks. Revoke it in one.

/// How it works

01

Select any object

Open the file browser, find the object you want to share. Works with any file type in any private bucket across all your connected AWS accounts.

02

Set the expiry

Choose how long the link should be valid: 15 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days, or a custom duration. The countdown starts the moment you generate it.

03

Share and revoke

Copy the link and send it. When it expires, access is gone automatically. Revoke early if plans change. No bucket policy was ever touched.

Expiry you control

Set links to expire in 15 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days, or a custom duration. The URL stops working the moment it expires — no cleanup needed.

Bucket stays private

Presigned URLs grant temporary access to one object. Your bucket policy and Block Public Access settings are untouched. Nothing else becomes accessible.

One-click generation

Right-click any object in Storafleet's file browser, hit 'Share', set expiry, copy link. Three clicks. No AWS Console, no CLI, no SDK.

Revoke before expiry

Sent the link to the wrong person? Revoke it immediately. Storafleet invalidates the URL regardless of remaining expiry time.

Works across all regions

Generate presigned URLs for objects in any AWS region. Storafleet handles the regional endpoint routing automatically — no config changes.

No new IAM users needed

Presigned URLs are signed with your existing credentials. You don't need to create IAM users, generate new access keys, or change any bucket policy.

/// Without Storafleet

Sharing an S3 file means making the bucket public or spending 10 minutes in IAM creating a temporary user.

  • Sharing a private file requires a bucket policy change or new IAM user
  • Making a bucket public affects every object — not just the one you wanted to share
  • Temporary IAM users need manual cleanup or they accumulate indefinitely
  • AWS Console presigned URL generation requires 5+ clicks and CLI knowledge
  • No way to invalidate a shared link before it expires without key rotation

/// With Storafleet

A time-limited presigned URL. Three clicks. Bucket stays private. Expires automatically.

  • One-click presigned URL from any private object in the file browser
  • Bucket policy and Block Public Access settings are never touched
  • URL expires automatically — nothing to clean up after sharing
  • Revoke any URL early with one click — access stops immediately
  • Works across all regions and all connected AWS accounts

/// When you'll use this

DevOps Engineer01

Sharing a build artifact with a vendor

A third-party auditor needs a specific build artifact from your private bucket. Making the bucket public is out of the question. You generate a presigned URL with a 24-hour expiry, send it, and the auditor downloads what they need. The link expires overnight — no cleanup.

SaaS Founder02

Delivering user exports securely

Your app generates user data exports stored in S3. Instead of streaming files through your server, you generate presigned URLs for each export and redirect users directly to S3. Your server load drops, costs drop, and the URL expires after 1 hour.

Agency Developer03

Handing off client deliverables

A client project is done and they need to download 8 large video files from staging. You don't want to set up S3 Transfer Acceleration or change any bucket settings. Storafleet generates 8 presigned URLs in seconds — client downloads, project closed.
