All tiers include unlimited bandwidth, S3 API access, and replication across 3 datacenters. Same encryption, same architecture across all tiers.
How it works
Zero-knowledge by architecture, not policy
AES-256-GCM on device
Files encrypted on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac before upload. Each file gets a unique key. Each folder gets a unique key. Keys live in your iOS Keychain.
FastCDC delta sync
Content-defined chunking (16 KB to 256 KB blocks). Edit one byte of a 1 GB file, only the affected chunk re-uploads.
3 datacenters, 2 jurisdictions
Encrypted blobs replicated across us-central, us-east (Virginia), and ca-east (Beauharnois). Replication factor 2: every block exists in at least 2 zones. A regional outage doesn't lose your files.
Cross-device via Keychain
iCloud Keychain syncs your vault keys to your other Apple devices. Open the same vault on iPhone, iPad, and Mac without re-uploading anything.
Standard S3 API
Connect rclone, AWS CLI, Cyberduck, or any S3-compatible client to
vaultyx.objstore.io with your access key. Full bucket access. No proprietary lock-in.No content scanning
No scanning. No ads. No phone-home analytics. No third-party tracking SDKs. No AI training on your files. It's not policy — we literally don't have the keys to read anything.
What "zero-knowledge" actually means
Most "encrypted" cloud services encrypt your files at rest on their servers — but they hold the keys. They can decrypt your files. They scan content for safety. They hand over plaintext when subpoenaed.
Vaultyx is different by architecture: the encryption runs on your device, before upload. Your iOS Keychain holds the only copy of the keys. The Katafract servers only ever see ciphertext.
- Unlike iCloud: Apple holds the keys to most iCloud files (excluding Advanced Data Protection users). They scan photos for known content. They've handed plaintext to law enforcement.
- Unlike Dropbox / Google Drive / OneDrive: They hold the keys, scan content for AI training and ads, and respond to warrants by handing over plaintext.
- Like Proton Drive / Tresorit / Sync.com: True zero-knowledge — keys live on your devices. Vaultyx adds standard S3 API access on top.

Honest comparison
How Vaultyx really compares
Real prices pulled from competitor sites today. Vaultyx priced at the 1 TB tier ($9.99/mo) and 5 TB tier ($7.99/TB/mo) for direct $/TB comparison.

Prices in USD as of April 2026. *iCloud Advanced Data Protection (opt-in) provides end-to-end encryption for some categories; default iCloud is at-rest only. Sync.com pricing assumes annual billing. Storj effective $/TB depends on egress volume — at 1× monthly egress, $4 storage + $7 egress = $11/TB.

S3 API
Use it as raw S3 storage too
Every Vaultyx subscription includes standard S3 API access. Connect rclone, AWS CLI, Cyberduck, Veeam — anything that speaks S3 — to your bucket. The same encrypted blobs your iPhone uploads are accessible via this API; you control encryption client-side, we provide the storage.
# rclone config [vaultyx]
type = s3
provider = Other
endpoint = https://vaultyx.objstore.io
region = us-east-1
access_key_id = KAT...
secret_access_key = ...
# Then list / upload / download as usual:
rclone ls vaultyx:vault-<your-id>
rclone copy ./photos vaultyx:vault-<your-id>/photos
Endpoint:
https://vaultyx.objstore.io · Region: us-east-1 · Buckets: virtual-host or path style. Per-user access keys generated in the Vaultyx app. Same Garage cluster underneath as the encrypted-blob storage your iOS app uses.
