FamilyCloud is in final development. Be the first to know when it launches.
Media server. Game sharing. Security cameras. Family calls. AI-powered search and collections. Peer-to-peer distributed — your data never leaves your devices.
No cloud server. No subscription for storage. No company between you and your family's data.
iCloud, Google Photos, Dropbox — your data sits on their servers. You pay rent to access it. When you stop paying, it disappears.
FamilyCloud is peer-to-peer. Your media lives on your phones, your NAS, your computers. Family members access it device-to-device over the internet. No Skyfire server in the middle. The data is yours — permanently.

Limited features
What's built
True peer-to-peer. No cloud server.
Your media lives on your devices — phone, NAS, desktop, laptop. When you access a photo on your mom's phone, it transfers device-to-device over the internet. Nothing goes through a Skyfire server. Nothing is stored on Skyfire servers.
Adaptive streaming from your own hardware
Automatic quality switching (4K → 1080p → 720p → 480p) based on your current bandwidth. Multi-source downloads — large files pull from multiple family devices simultaneously. Smart prefetching predicts what you'll watch next.
Media intelligence — on your hardware
Perceptual hashing, scene detection, semantic search, auto-collections (Kids, Trips, Holidays, Pets, Highlights). Hybrid full-text + semantic search. TV home screen with Continue, Recommended, and Recent rails. All processing runs on your servers.
Family game sharing
Share your installed game library with family. Download from Dad's gaming PC instead of buying again. Stream games from a powerful PC to any device over the local network or internet. Save sync across devices.
Security cameras — your footage, your drives
RTSP camera integration. Live streams and recorded clips saved to your own drives. Never transmitted to a third-party server. CenterStage-style subject tracking for cameras that support it.
Every TV platform
Native apps for Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Android TV, and Apple TV. 4K HDR and Dolby Vision where supported. A full TV interface with home screen, collections, and continue watching — served from your hardware.
Family video calls — no accounts required
Built-in video calling. No Zoom account, no Teams, no subscription. Send grandparents a link. Calls route peer-to-peer within your network when possible.
Multi-site redundancy
Two locations, one unified library. Your house and your parents' house each hold a full copy. Automatic failover — if one site goes offline, the other takes over. No manual intervention, no data loss.
TV platforms
A full TV interface with home screen, continue watching, recommendations, and collections — served from your hardware, appearing on every screen in the house.

The drives are yours. The data is yours. The bill stops there.

Verified software
Every FamilyCloud release ships with a signed test manifest. Same philosophy as Skyfire's ForgeCertify kernel certification — proof you can verify independently.
Tests passing
Auth, media intelligence, TV controller, data isolation — all mocked, no live DB required.
Signed manifest
npm run manifest:verify → ✅ AUTHENTIC. Ed25519 signature over SHA-256 of test results. Tamper-evident.
TypeScript core
Auth service and media intelligence service typed with strict mode. Zero compile errors.
Also available standalone
FamilyCloud users get continuous recovery protection built in. Or use Recovery standalone — $29 personal, $299/year professional, custom for government and law enforcement.
