Boomerang – the guy from WeTransfer rebuilds file sharing

We’ve been here before. Back in 2009, the idea was simple: upload without too much hassle. Somewhere along the way, file-sharing got complicated. Features piled up. Ads crept in. Settings multiplied. Privacy gone. We think it’s time to get back to the basics.

Spearheaded by Nalden, one of the original founders of WeTransfer, we’ve built Boomerang for people who believe sharing files should just be easy. We won’t use your data to train any AI models. We simply want to help you to share your files fast.

Built for Speed

Boomerang runs on Cloudflare’s global edge network, one of the fastest infrastructures on the planet. Your files upload and download from the server closest to you, whether you’re in Tokyo, Berlin, or São Paulo. We use modern web technologies including Hono, TypeScript, and Drizzle ORM because we believe the best tools make the best products.

A Canvas, Not a Control Panel

Boomerang has features; stuff you can customize, files you can manage, passwords, collaboration. But we approach design like a wireframe that actually works. A clean canvas where you paint only what you need.

File sharing hasn’t changed much, but web technology has transformed completely. We’re building Boomerang with the latest infrastructure: edge computing, distributed storage, global CDN delivery, because your files deserve better than legacy tech.

Easy-duz-it.

If you have any ideas, feedback or feature requests, simply reach out via email and we will get back to you. No bots, no AI. Just imperfectly human. hi@bmrng.me.
