Finds your devices
Hop discovers your other computers on the same Wi-Fi with Bonjour (mDNS). No IP addresses, no setup.

New in the PXL suite
Send files between your devices. No cloud.
Like AirDrop, but between everything. Hop sends files and folders between your Mac, your Windows PC and your phone over your own Wi-Fi, at full speed, encrypted, and without going through anyone's cloud. Phones don't need an app at all.

Features
Fast, private, and it just finds things.
Your files go straight from one device to the other, over your own network.
Paired, then encrypted
Pair two devices once with a 6-digit code. The handshake (SPAKE2) means someone else on the Wi-Fi can't guess or intercept it, and every transfer after that is end-to-end encrypted.

Phones, no app
Scan the QR code on your computer and Hop opens in your phone's browser. Send photos either way.
Resumes, then verifies
Big files go in chunks that pick up where they left off if the Wi-Fi drops, with a SHA-256 check at the end.
And a CLI
Send from scripts, servers and SSH sessions.
$ hop send ./renders
How it works
Open it on both. Drop a file.
There's nothing to sign in to and nothing to configure.
Open Hop
On both computers, or scan the QR code with your phone.
Pair once
Type the 6-digit code. After that, your devices trust each other.
Drop and go
Drag files or folders onto a device. They arrive at full Wi-Fi speed.
Private by design
It runs on your computer. That's it.
Hop is the cloud you don't need. Files go straight between your devices over your own network, encrypted, and never touch a server.
