File locking Immutable recovery EU-hosted storage

Heavy files.
One project drive.
Locked. Recoverable.

Orbifs is a virtual project drive for CAD, BIM, point-cloud and media files. They appear as ordinary files on Windows and macOS and open the instant you need them — no VPN, no downloads, no sync conflicts, under European control.

Built for the teams that move heavy files Architecture Engineering & BIM Surveying Geospatial Creative & Media
The problem

Large projects break ordinary tools.

CAD, BIM, point-cloud and media files outgrow the drives built for documents — so teams fight their own storage instead of doing the work.

01

Slow VPN & NAS

Remote access to the office NAS crawls, and project folders are too big to sync.

02

Sync conflicts

Dropbox, OneDrive and SharePoint spawn duplicate and conflicted copies.

03

No safe locking

CAD and BIM files get overwritten or corrupted with no real file locking.

04

Ransomware fear

No reliable, immutable version recovery when something goes wrong.

Virtual project drive
