SAY HELLO TO THE DATA LAYER
Use decentralized protocols to liberate your data using our easy-to-use
developer platform. We’ll take care of the rest.

WHAT'S THE DATA LAYER?
CONNECTING SERVICES WITH THE DATA LAYER
Eliminate silos with the web3.storage platform. Using IPFS and other
decentralized protocols, create a true data layer that connects you, your users,
and the Web, regardless of where content is stored - client-side, in the cloud,
or elsewhere.
Sounds hard? It isn’t. Our client libraries are super easy-to-use, abstracting
the complexity of these decentralized protocols. And we provide services like
data storage designed to natively support these protocols, so things just work
without you ever being locked-in.

All data is accessible via IPFS and backed by Filecoin storage, with service
authentication using decentralized identity. Create user-centric applications,
run verifiable workloads on data, and more - no servers needed, no lock-in, no
trust necessary.
RELIABLE
We take the best of web2 and web3 to provide infra you can rely on to scale with
you. Frustration with decentralized storage is a thing of the past.
SIMPLE
Start storing in minutes using our simple client library to see how
decentralized protocols can work together to unlock your data layer.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is meant by the “web3.storage platform”?
web3.storage is a suite of APIs and services that make it easy for developers
and other users to interact with data in a way that is not tied to where the
data is actually physically stored. It natively uses decentralized data and
identity protocols like IPFS, Filecoin, and UCAN that enable verifiable, data-
and user-centric application architectures and workflows.
At the core of the platform includes a hosted storage service which can be used
to upload and persist data to make it continuously available. The platform also
contains additional services like w3link and w3name that make it easier to
create seamless, delightful web experiences utilizing web3 protocols.

FAQ
What advantages does web3.storage have over traditional hosted storage services?
Because web3.storage uses decentralized data and identity protocols like IPFS
and UCAN, data and identity are referenced in an open way. Data is referenced
using IPFS content identifiers that are unique to the data, making your data...

TRUSTED BY THE FUTURE
web3.storage is the easiest way to enable the decentralized web for anyone, from
cutting-edge user-first apps, to traditional products at scale, to hackathon
projects.
See what people building the future of the web today have to say, and get
started.
Adam G.
CEO, 3S Game Studio
web3.storage allows us to host Unreal Engine on IPFS. This unlocks a better
future for gaming, with their reliable infrastructure enabling more efficient
deduplication and delivery of assets and components, and more user-centric
games.
Caroline B.
Co-founder and CEO, Pollinations.AI
We use web3.storage to store all of our AI-generated media, around 12k assets
per day and growing 20x monthly! web3.storage’s reliability and scalability for
content-addressed file storage makes caching very easy. Our users love the
content addressing, which makes it easy to come back to previously generated
files and know it hasn’t changed.
Vijay K.
Co-founder, Fileverse
The web3.storage platform allows us to support a community-supported file
sharing & collaboration dApp. Their vision with IPFS and UCANs to enable
user-centric apps perfectly aligns with the on-chain future we are creating.
Jacob P.

web3.storage enables Strangemood to provide game devs with fast, free, and
censorship resistant storage. Their simple SDK and responsive team makes
decentralized storage on IPFS easier than even centralized alternatives.
Ryan W.
Capetown, South Africa
I work pretty much exclusively on Web3 applications, and I'm really impressed
with web3.storage. It's almost too easy - I didn't run into any stumbling blocks
and had a basic implementation of my project in 30 minutes.
Frank J.
Toronto, Canada
web3.storage was so simple to hook into, and does what you need it to do. We run
the Galactic Punks community on Terra, and it is great for storing off-chain
data. It's like simplified S3 for IPFS.
