DropBridge · the connection

Files move themselves.

DropBridge is the realtime link between your browser and your iPad. Push a PDF from Chrome, get a delivery receipt, and pick up the annotated file in any upload flow — both directions.

Privacy, by design

Local-first isn't a feature. It's the whole point.

Your course index lives on your devices. Handoffs are end-to-end. On-device AI when available. Nothing sold, ever.
