| Free tier | 10 GiB free at signup; Pro I 200 GiB / €1.99 mo, Pro III 2 TiB / €8.99 mo unit GiB; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not stated |
| Retention | not stated |
| Egress | 'Unlimited bandwidth' on every paid plan; free tier is not bandwidth-metered but is 10 GiB, so egress is not the binding constraint |
| Identity | card derived from the record's prose, not from an identity field, and no signup was executed: 10 GiB free at signup; Pro I 200 GiB / €1.99 mo, Pro III 2 TiB / €8.99 mo active, well-maintained service but the several-accounts route is now explicitl |
| Binding | none no constraint of a named kind was recorded; the verdict rests on the quota sentence rather than on a named limit |
| Interface | rest, rclone rest |
| Tooling | rclone backend 'filen' (official); zero-knowledge client-side encryption |
| Composes with | The 10 GiB is per account. Separate accounts each held 10 GiB in the past, and Filen closed that: as of the Feb 2026 policy the free 10 GiB is only granted when signup looks like a consumer connection (one-time Ipregistry VPN/proxy classification) |
| Reliability | active, well-maintained service but the several-accounts route is now explicitly detected at signup; a VPN/proxy signup yields an account with zero free storage |
| Notes | 10 GiB free at signup; Pro I 200 GiB / €1.99 mo, Pro III 2 TiB / €8.99 mo |
