Your files, in sync with people and AI.

Share with people and agents

Grant read or write. To a person, or a process. Same permission primitive for both.

CLI + Agent Skill

Mount, share, and automate sync from a terminal or installed agent Skill.

Big files, done in seconds

Only changed chunks move, avoiding full uploads for large files.

Catch up fast after time away

Reconnect after time away and sync only the diffs that changed.

Your files, under your rules.

Valv is hosted for you, with the same AGPLv3 sync core you can inspect. Every grant is scoped to the folder you chose, nothing wider.

Built for

For the teammate who says, 'Can you just send the folder?' and actually needs the folder to stay current.
For the AI agent that needs one client project on a machine that has none of your files.
For the 10GB file where only a few kilobytes changed and nobody wants to upload the whole thing again.
For the folder that lives in Finder, your terminal, and your agent workflow without becoming three copies.

Mount your first folder in under a minute.
