Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 0 of the 17 other file storage and sync services we grade
Internxt Drive is a zero-knowledge encrypted cloud storage service from a company based in Valencia, Spain. Files are encrypted on the device before upload, the code is published on GitHub, and the platform has been independently audited. Paid plans come in 1 TB, 2 TB and 5 TB sizes, sold as annual subscriptions or one-time lifetime purchases, and bundle a VPN and antivirus.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Internxt, taken from its own pages and our grades.
- 1
Best for private cloud storage you can pay for once
Internxt encrypts your files before they leave your device, with open-source code and an outside audit behind the claim, and desktop apps for Linux, Windows and Mac.
- 2
Paid plans start at $11.99 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $11.99 per month, billed annually (list price).
- 3
There is a free plan
1 GB of encrypted cloud storage for life, usable across Internxt's services.
- 4
It runs on 6 platforms
Web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android.
- 5
Zero-knowledge encryption
Files are end-to-end encrypted before leaving the device and split into fragments, so a server holds only encrypted shards. Plans also list post-quantum encryption.
- 6
Open source and audited
Internxt publishes its code on GitHub and states that the platform was independently audited by the penetration testing company Securitum.
- 7
Backup and sharing
Paid plans back up a computer and share files with password protection. Premium and Ultimate add invitations to collaborate and file versioning.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 0 of 17
That is against the other file storage and sync services we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.

Nothing Internxt does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 4 things listed below take a company.

The report card
Best for private cloud storage you can pay for once
Internxt encrypts your files before they leave your device, with open-source code and an outside audit behind the claim, and desktop apps for Linux, Windows and Mac. The free plan is only 1 GB, list prices start at $11.99 a month for 1 TB, what you pay moves with whatever discount is running, and versioning waits for Premium.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | The list price is $11.99 a month for 1 TB, past the $9.99 where this category's dearest tenth starts and more than twice its $5 middle. Lifetime lists at $1,999. The site advertised 80% off when we checked, so almost nobody pays list, but a price that only makes sense on permanent discount is not a good price. |
| Free plan and trial | C | Free for life, and 1 GB of it, when MEGA hands out 20 GB and Google 15 GB. That's enough for a look round and a few documents, not enough to keep anything. No trial of the paid plans is listed either. |
| Features | C | The storage basics, with files encrypted and split into fragments on your device, code on GitHub, an audit by Securitum, plus backup, password-protected links, a VPN and antivirus. The listing's own ladder is the catch: file versioning starts at Premium, and WebDAV and NAS at Ultimate. |
| Ease of use | B | No store rating on record, but nothing to set up: install the desktop or phone app, sign in, and your files are there, with no server to host and no keys to manage yourself. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone and Android, so every machine in the house is covered. What's thin is the other end: Rclone is the only integration listed, there's no API on record, and the CLI and WebDAV are Ultimate only. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Internxt is for
- Fits if you want storage the provider can't read, with open-source code anyone can inspect
- Works for people who'd rather pay once, since every paid plan also comes as a lifetime purchase
Who it is not for
- Tight if you're staying free, because 1 GB is all you get
- Pricey if you ever pay list, at $11.99 a month for 1 TB, and the charge moves with whatever promotion is on
- Not for you if you need file versioning on the cheapest plan, since that starts at Premium
- Skip it if you want Photos, WebDAV, NAS or the CLI without paying for Ultimate at $31.99 list
- Watch out: files max out at 10 GB on Essential, and Rclone is the only integration listed
Good to know
Good for
- People who want open source, zero-knowledge storage
- Buyers who prefer a one-time lifetime payment
- Linux users: desktop apps cover Linux, Windows and macOS
Worth knowing
- The free plan is limited to 1 GB.
- The prices here are list prices. Internxt's site advertised 80% off when checked, so the amount charged is usually lower and changes with the promotion.
- File versioning and collaboration invites start at Premium; Photos, WebDAV and NAS support are limited to Ultimate.
- Maximum file size is 10 GB on Essential, 50 GB on Premium and 100 GB on Ultimate.

It stands best on ease of use (B, above 4 of 17) and worst on value for money (D, above 0).

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
Nothing Internxt does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 4 things listed below take a company.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 16 of the 17 other file storage and sync services grade higher. It costs $143.88 a year. Internxt is open source, so there is a third way: take its code and run it yourself.
What you could not
- Storing and serving files for other people.
- Apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- End-to-end encryption done properly.
- Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.
What this rests on. Internxt’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
