What Hoodik is
Hoodik is end-to-end encrypted cloud storage that encrypts files on your device before upload. Its Starter plan provides 100 GB and its Plus plan provides 500 GB; both allow unlimited users. You can share files and folders with view or edit permissions and collaborate on markdown notes with version history. Hoodik hashes filenames and search queries on the device, allowing server-side fingerprint matching without exposing the words. The maker says file keys use X25519 and ML-KEM-768 wrapping and never reach its servers. Cloud customers choose EU or US storage, while object storage is designed for 99.999999999% annual durability, according to the maker. Native apps cover iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Android; Windows and Linux users use the web app. Docker instructions support self-hosting on a home server, Raspberry Pi, NAS, or Linux machine, with S3-compatible storage options.
