Plient

What Plient is

Plient is an encrypted file storage and collaboration platform with browser-based office editing, WebDAV, a command-line interface, and an app marketplace. Files are encrypted on the user's device before upload with AES-256-GCM. Its zero-knowledge key model derives the master key from a password and salt on the device, and does not send that key to the server. Collaboration tools include shared drives, granular permissions, password-protected links with expiry, and file requests. In the browser, users can edit .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx files with real-time co-authoring, comments, suggestions, and version history. The marketplace lists Google Workspace, OnlyOffice, iDrive E2, Backblaze B2, and AWS S3. Its CLI handles uploads, downloads, syncing, and file management from scripts and CI pipelines. WebDAV lets users mount Plient as a network drive on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Plient is available as managed cloud software or can be self-hosted with Docker. The free plan includes 5 GB of encrypted storage for one user; Pro costs $9 a month and Business costs $25 per user / month.
