Deliver the file without sending the file.
The file stays in the cell. Its descriptor, fifteen characters, crosses the channel, and the file is regenerated bit-exact where the cell is present, for the people a grant allows.

Delivery, without the copy.
Today a large file is copied end to end every time it moves: to a partner, to a second site, to a screen. With the engine the file is imploded once and named by fifteen characters. The descriptor travels on any channel that carries text, and the far end regenerates the file where the cell is present.

What changes when the copy stops travelling
- Every delivery is a full copy, end to end.
- Every copy is one more place the file can leak.
- A large file waits on every link it crosses.
- The descriptor crosses; the file is regenerated where the cell is present.
- Opening needs the cell and a grant, checked at Decode.
- What comes back is bit-exact: the same file, at the same size.
Watch one delivery, step by step.
Five files leave a hard drive and are rebuilt on a screen. Scroll inside the demo or press Play; turn on CC for the narration.
- 01Implosion
Each file is cut into pieces, fingerprinted and folded into one root, named by fifteen characters.
- 02Transmission
Only the descriptor crosses the channel. The files stay where they are.
- 03Regeneration
The grant and the receiving device are checked before anything opens. A copy on the wrong device stays shut. The file is rebuilt where the cell is present and checked bit-exact against its root.
Demo with illustrative files and values. The receiving cell holds the strands, or is sent the ones it lacks.
A finished master reaches three partners.
- 01First
The master is imploded once, in the studio's cell.
- 02Then
Each partner receives its descriptor and a grant with its own terms.
- 03Finally
Each partner regenerates the master where the cell is present. The grant ends on the agreed date.
Example scenario, not a customer deployment.
What holds, every time
Decode confirms the right to open, and for how long, before anything is rebuilt.
The rebuilt file matches the original bit for bit, at its original size.
The descriptor is fifteen characters. It travels wherever text does.

Digital BankQuestions about deliver large files
Draft answers. To confirm with product and engineering.
Does the file itself never move?
The descriptor is what crosses the channel. The receiving cell must hold the file's strands; any it lacks are sent once. [How strands first reach a new cell: to confirm with engineering.]
Is the descriptor a secret?
No. It names a file; it does not open it. Opening needs the cell and a grant.
How long does a delivery take?
We do not publish process times. Lengths in the demo are illustrative.
