Advanced Architecture

Engineered for speed.
Fortified by zero-knowledge math.

FastSTNex replaces sluggish email attachments and intrusive cloud storage logins with high-throughput encrypted transfers, scheduled release triggers, and automated ephemeral shredding.

50GB Gigabit Chunking

Files stream across multiple concurrent parallel HTTP/2 byte slices. If a network blip occurs, only the affected slice re-attempts without restarting the entire file payload.

  • Up to 50GB per individual transfer
  • Exponential backoff retry handler
  • Zero server bandwidth throttling

Client-Side Zero-Knowledge

Browser-native Web Crypto API encrypts raw bytes with AES-GCM-256 before upload. The secret key is isolated to the URL hash fragment (#key=...), invisible to our servers.

  • NIST-approved AES-256 Galois/Counter Mode
  • Server never touches unencrypted data
  • Cryptographic tamper authentication

Precision Scheduled Release

Time your deliverable perfectly. Seal contracts, embargoed press releases, or project assets until an exact future date, time, and recipient timezone.

  • Automatic timezone synchronization
  • Live countdown gate for recipients
  • Pre-upload with deferred unlocking

PIN & Recipient Security Gates

Protect deliverables with custom 4-12 digit passcodes or mandate one-time email OTP challenge verification before file downloading is permitted.

  • Brute-force rate limiting defense
  • One-time password (OTP) email gate
  • Instant one-click sender revocation

In-Browser Media Previews

Recipients don't need to download massive files to inspect contents. Stream 4K video clips, read PDF pages, and review high-resolution images instantly.

  • HTML5 responsive video player
  • PDF document reader
  • Selective or zip-bundle downloads

Model Context Protocol (MCP)

FastSTNex is built for the AI era. Connect AI assistants (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Antigravity) to create, inspect, and revoke secure file links via stdio JSON-RPC.

  • Official `mcp:serve` artisan command
  • Programmatic share generation
  • Complete RESTful developer API

Frequently Asked Questions

How does FastSTNex achieve Zero-Knowledge file encryption?

FastSTNex leverages the native Web Crypto API directly within your modern browser. When you drop a file, your device creates a cryptographic 256-bit AES key. The file is encrypted before any data leaves your browser. The decryption key is attached exclusively to the URL fragment identifier (#key=...), which RFC 3986 specifies is never sent to the hosting web server in HTTP requests.

How does precision scheduled delivery work?

When uploading with Schedule mode, you select a target release date, time, and timezone. The payload is encrypted and securely stored, but access tokens are locked until the scheduled timestamp strikes. The recipient page displays an active countdown timer until the package unlocks.

What happens when a transfer link expires or is revoked?

Once the designated expiration timeframe passes, download limits are reached, or the sender clicks Revoke, FastSTNex immediately shreds the physical storage blocks on disk and invalidates the database token. Access becomes permanently impossible.

Can AI models and developer agents interact with FastSTNex?

Yes. FastSTNex provides a dedicated Model Context Protocol (MCP) server runnable via php artisan mcp:serve and full RESTful API endpoints. AI agents can initiate transfers, verify payload integrity, retrieve download statistics, and enforce security policies automatically.
