Filebase | Unified storage infrastructure for IPFS and AI workloads
Build IPFS and AI apps on unified storage. Pin content, run dedicated gateways, and scale with AI-ready object storage.
Categories:
Filebase provides S3-compatible decentralized object storage powered by IPFS for developers building and scaling Web3, NFT, and AI applications.
🚀 Overview
Filebase is a unified storage platform that delivers persistent, content-addressed object storage using IPFS technology, solving key problems like link rot from content updates, regional outages through multi-provider replication, and budget overruns from high egress fees.
It is built for developers, Web3 teams, and AI engineers who need reliable, scalable storage without managing infrastructure. Trusted by projects like Rarible, Crossmint, and Phantom.
The platform was developed to make decentralized storage production-ready, handling pinning, gateways, and delivery seamlessly since 2019, now serving 55K+ users and 100M+ daily requests.
✨ Key Features
- S3-compatible API with AWS SDK support for drop-in integration and easy migration from centralized storage
- Dedicated IPFS gateways with global CDN, on-the-fly image optimization, custom domains, and SSL
- Advanced pinning service with recursive pinning, real-time notifications, selective deletion, and multi-provider replication for high availability
- IPNS support for stable URLs on mutable/dynamic content without breaking links
- Unlimited bandwidth on select plans, threat monitoring, activity streams, and Filebase Sites for simplified IPFS websites
- Optional: IPFS RPC/PSA APIs, CLI access, TypeScript SDK, IPFS Desktop integration
🛠 Tech Stack
- Infrastructure: IPFS, IPNS, multi-provider decentralized networks (Filecoin, Sia, Arweave)
- APIs: S3-compatible object storage, Kubo-compatible IPFS RPC, Platform API
- Frontend: Modern web dashboard
- Additional: Global CDN with edge caching, image resizing
- Auth: API tokens
- Hosting: Decentralized storage networks with enterprise persistence
