The one thing no other tool offers
Your domain. Your brand. TrunkTransfer is invisible.
On Starter, connect your own domain: files.yourstudio.com instead of trunktransfer.com. Your client sees your domain in the browser bar, your studio name on the page, and nothing that says TrunkTransfer anywhere. Not in the URL. Not in the footer. Not anywhere.
Your domain in the URL
files.yourstudio.com: not trunktransfer.com
Your name on the page
Studio name, avatar, and brand colors. Zero TrunkTransfer branding.
Your client stays yours
They never know what platform you use. It looks like you built it.
