Cloud storage for teams and creators — Closed Beta

Closed beta is open for applications (limited seats)

Simple, private cloud storage
built for real work.

mince keeps your files organized, searchable, and shareable — without turning your data into a product. We are currently in closed beta while we scale infrastructure and polish collaboration.

Apply for closed beta How the beta works
Fast upload + sync Chunked uploads, resumable transfers, smart dedup.
Share safely Expiring links, permissions, audit trail.
Built for privacy Encryption at rest, strong access controls.

Features

Everything you need for storage that feels modern: quick access, controlled sharing, and calm organization.

Resumable uploads

Unstable Wi-Fi is not a problem. Transfers resume automatically and avoid re-uploading duplicates.

File history & restore

Accidental overwrite? Restore previous versions and recover deleted items within retention limits.

Sharing with control

Create expiring links, restrict downloads, and track access events for shared content.

Search that works

Find files by name, type, tags, and metadata. More content search arrives during beta.

Team permissions

Invite teammates, set roles, and keep sensitive folders limited to the right people.

Clean API surface

Designed for integrations. Beta access includes early API docs and feedback channels.

Security and privacy

We focus on practical protection: encryption, sane defaults, and visibility into access.

Core protections

  • Encryption in transit (TLS) and encryption at rest on storage.
  • Role-based access control for teams and shared workspaces.
  • Activity logs for file access and sharing events.
  • Download limits and link expiration options.

What we do not do

  • We do not sell user data or use file contents for advertising profiles.
  • We do not silently widen access; you control sharing and permissions.
  • We do not require unnecessary personal details to apply for beta.

Closed beta program

We accept a limited number of users each week to keep performance stable and support responsive.

Who we are looking for

People who store real projects: designers, developers, researchers, small teams, and content creators.

What we ask from you

Use mince weekly, report bugs, and share what feels confusing or missing. Short feedback beats long reports.

Timeline

Beta access is granted on a rolling basis. General availability will follow once stability targets are met.

Apply for closed beta

Fill out the form below. If accepted, you will receive an email with onboarding instructions. Tip: press Ctrl + Enter to submit.

Minimum 20 characters. This helps us prioritize features and scale capacity.
Your application will be reviewed. We typically invite new users in weekly batches.
Privacy note: This demo page stores your submission only in your browser (no network request). To connect it to a real backend, replace the JavaScript “fake submit” with a fetch() call to your API endpoint and handle storage server-side.

What happens after you apply

  • Review: We match applicants to available capacity and use cases.
  • Invite: If accepted, you receive an onboarding email with access steps.
  • Feedback: You get a private channel to report bugs and request features.
  • Data: During beta, you can export everything. We encourage backups for critical data.
If you want this form to email you directly without a backend, you can also change it to a mailto: action, but that is less reliable and not recommended for production.

FAQ

Quick answers to common questions about the closed beta.

Is the beta free?

Yes. Closed beta access is free while we validate performance and finalize plans. Paid tiers will launch after general availability.

Can I use mince for backups?

Yes, but during beta we recommend keeping an additional copy of critical data. You can export files at any time.

Do you support end-to-end encryption?

Not yet. We currently provide encryption in transit and at rest. End-to-end encryption is on the roadmap, and beta feedback will influence design decisions.

How do invites work?

We invite users in small batches to keep the service stable. If you are not accepted immediately, your application stays in the queue for future batches.
