Footage and project files.
Together in Finder.

Keep footage and project files together. Downloaded data and saved edits use local space.

Built around your files.

We’re building Haaalo’s cloud storage on Backblaze B2.

Your files.
Your folders.

Keep documents, images and footage organized in folders. Access your cloud files through Finder.

Cloud storage.
Local space, used wisely.

01

Download what you need.

Haaalo fetches the parts of a file your apps request, without downloading the whole folder first.

02

Reuse downloaded data.

Downloaded data can be reused within the cache limit. Anything outside the cache needs a connection.

03

Keep a copy offline.

Keep files offline for use without a connection. These copies and edits waiting to upload need extra local space.

How the cache works.
In a few lines.

This JavaScript example shows the idea behind the cache. The Mac app’s storage engine is written in Swift and Go.

Good to know.

What is available today?

Haaalo is in development for Apple Silicon Macs, with an 8 GB cloud testing limit. Public registration and paid plans are not available yet.

Where will files be stored?

Haaalo’s files will be stored on Backblaze B2. We’re preparing the integration as part of the service’s development.

How much space does my Mac need?

Downloaded data stays in a cache with a size limit. Offline copies and edits waiting to upload need extra space. A file’s size in Finder can be larger than the space it uses on your Mac.

Can I share a file or folder?

Sharing supports view or edit access, expiry and revocation. Access can be open to anyone with the link or limited to approved recipients. Editing in a browser means downloading the file and uploading a new version. Folder sharing and passkey access for approved recipients are still being tested.

How is access protected?

The server checks your account or sharing permissions before sending a file. Approved recipients sign in with a passkey and a code confirmed by the owner; they choose their own display name. Private storage does not provide end-to-end or zero-knowledge encryption.

How can I try the Mac app?

Haaalo is proprietary software in development for Mac. The public installer and subscriptions are not available yet. The download will appear here when the Mac app is ready.

Can I upload files on this page?

This page shows how Haaalo works. It does not connect to a cloud account or upload files.
