All features

Everything Foldr does, in one list.

Foldr works with whatever storage you already have. Below is the directory: every connector, every product surface, every admin lever. Each block links through to the dedicated page, where one exists.

Every backend that matters

Storage

  • OneDrive, SharePoint, Microsoft Teams
  • Google Drive, Google Workspace shared drives
  • Amazon S3, Azure Blob, Backblaze B2, S3-compatible
  • Box, Dropbox
  • SMB / CIFS shares
  • WebDAV, FTP / SFTP
  • Local filesystem
  • Permissions inherited from the source, not re-implemented in Foldr
  • No migration: connect and disconnect in minutes

The core

Files

  • Browse, link, move, copy, rename across every backend
  • Inline preview for PDFs, Office documents, images, video, audio
  • Edit-in-place: open a file in any app, save back where it lives
  • Custom fields on any backend, any file
  • PDF annotation: highlight, text, ink, stamps
  • Secure PDF redaction: content actually removed, not painted over (Business and Enterprise tiers, always on appliance)
  • Bookmarks and recent files
  • Mobile capture from any device
  • Bulk actions across selections

Public links, hand-in, inbox

Share

  • Public links with passwords, time-based expiry and expire-on-download
  • Slug-based memorable URLs (foldr.acme.co/project-x) or compact hashes
  • Multiple recipients per link, each with their own permissions and deadlines
  • Read-only, upload, and manage permission tiers per recipient
  • Per-recipient deadlines: soft, hard, or final
  • Custom field collection: before download, after upload, or write-protect for consent gates
  • Hand-in mode: auto folder-per-student on first upload, deadline enforcement
  • Inbox: give a folder its own email address, attachments auto-saved with sender details
  • Embed shares as iframes for live-updating content on external websites
  • Read receipts and per-link activity log
  • Email notifications on access, upload and field submission (configurable per link)
Read more
Collect, filed in place

Forms

  • Typed fields: text, paragraph, email, phone, URL, number, date and time, choice, rating, slider, consent, file upload, signature
  • Publish a public link, or send to named people and groups from your directory
  • Per-recipient magic-links, tracked from invited through viewed to submitted
  • Conditional logic: show and hide questions, require-when, computed answers, validate-before-submit, page branching
  • Every response materialises as a file (PDF, Word, Markdown, plain text or JSON) in the share and folder you choose, with uploads filed alongside it
  • Answers mapped to custom fields on the filed response, indexed for search the moment it lands
  • Response caps, open and close windows, per-recipient deadlines (soft, hard, final)
  • On-submit notifications to the owner and a receipt to the responder, even an anonymous one
  • Send for signature on submit: the submitter signs the result on the spot, or the finished PDF routes to named signers via Foldr Sign
  • Supporting documents: link an existing shared file into the form to read or download
  • Save and resume a part-finished response
Read more
E-signature, in place

Sign

  • Send any PDF for signature from the share it already lives in, no upload to a third party and no per-document fees
  • Signature, initials, date and text fields placed on the page and assigned per recipient
  • Recipients from your directory: internal users via your IdP, LDAP groups expanded at send-time, external signers by email
  • External signers verify with a magic-link, no account to create; internal signers via Foldr login with TOTP, Duo or passkey where enrolled
  • Templates save the recipients, fields and signing order for repeat work
  • Reminders on a schedule you set, and hard-deadline expiry that voids the envelope
  • Signed PDF saved back in the original folder with a certificate of completion attached
  • Tamper-evident audit trail: timestamp, IP and device per action, plus a SHA-256 hash of the envelope bundle
  • Track every envelope: outstanding, waiting on whom, resend one, void the lot, download completed PDFs in a bundle
  • Simple Electronic Signature under eIDAS, the UK Electronic Communications Act 2000 and US ESIGN / UETA (Advanced Electronic Signature on the roadmap)

Portal for clients and partners

Folio

  • External users sign in and see only what you shared, with no Foldr account and no per-seat licence
  • Curated landing per client: their company name on top, your branding, no org tree and no admin chrome
  • Inherits the full sharing surface per recipient: read-only, upload, custom-field collection, deadlines
  • Live files, not attachments: update the source and the client sees the latest, with no version-N+1 emails
  • Single sign-in by email, or wire external users through your IdP
  • Per-client audit trail: every open, download, upload and field submission, exportable
