Show HN: Ive Sent It – online courier for files, with signed proof of delivery

That's load-bearing, and it's worth stating why:

At least 250% more pulsing dots!

Hello saaaaaam, thanks for your comment. On the animations, people can take it or leave it. It's not on there by default at all - just an option for people if they want it. No one's forced to send a file using the animations. In terms of "poking through confidential client files" as you put it, we make it clear - every file is scanned for malware and checked automatically for content that is illegal - for example CSAM - which is done in an automated fashion. Obviously, we don't want people abusing our service which is standard practice amongst any service.

Hi there, thanks for your comment - so first we have a more expansive feature set than WeTransfer for users in different sectors. From a security point of view, of course you're completely right WeTransfer sends emails to users to inform them of when someone downloaded their file (and so do we). However, we go a step further - every delivery also carries a signed certificate/receipt with a hash so that the recipient can look up independently on the platform whether that file transfer came from us or not. Users can also restrict deliveries by country, cap the number of downloads, or request id-verified delivery (this is particularly useful for legal) to ensure that a user proves to the sender it's them downloading files that are particularly sensitive.

There's a weird Stripe integration I guess. I wonder what Stripe keys you have to trust them with.

Hi fehu22, thanks for your comment. So every file when it's sent is malware checked and additionally automatically scanned to ensure it doesn't contain things like CSAM - we obviously don't want our users abusing the service.
