General Folders
General Folders provides an identity- and policy-aware transport layer for B2B data exchange, replacing manual SFTP, email, and ad-hoc pipelines. The platform uses owned connections with secret-referenced credentials, isolated worker execution, and permission-scoped audit trails that record checksums and retries for every transfer. Its API-first design treats each exchange as an API object with status webhooks, enabling programmatic transfer creation and embeddable setup flows.

Problem
Businesses routinely exchange operational data with partners using insecure and manual methods like SFTP folders, email attachments, and one-off scripts. These approaches lack governance, visibility, and auditability, making data transfers prone to leaks, difficult to validate, and costly to monitor.
Solution
General Folders provides an identity- and policy-aware transport layer that enables governed file exchange between B2B partners. Each organization connects only the endpoints it owns, with credentials held as secret references, and transfers execute in isolated workers so payloads move through the run rather than pooling in storage. Every transfer records counts, checksums, retries, and failure details behind a permission-scoped audit trail, allowing teams to confirm delivery and troubleshoot without exposing raw data. The platform is API-first, treating every exchange as an API object with status webhooks, and supports embedding the setup flow so customers never need to leave their own product.
Target Audience
Primary customers are B2B companies that need to exchange operational data with partners, including SaaS vendors sending customer data, companies sharing data with government agencies, and organizations involved in M&A diligence or collaborative analytics.
Features
- Owned connections: each organization connects only endpoints it owns, with credentials stored as secret references
- Isolated execution: transfers run in isolated workers, moving payloads through the run instead of pooling in storage
- Permission-scoped audit trails: every run records counts, checksums, retries, and failure detail for verification and troubleshooting
- API-first design: every exchange is an API object with status webhooks, enabling creation and tracking of transfers programmatically
- Embeddable setup flow: customers can configure transfers without leaving their own product environment
- Automated contract analysis: relevant entities are extracted from contracts to create client profiles and suggest compliance tests
