person Freelancer Use Case

Your enterprise client demands SFTP. Don't pay $216/mo for one directory.

AWS Transfer Family costs $216/month minimum — before you upload a single file. Bridglet gives solo consultants and BI freelancers a professional SFTP endpoint for free. One client, zero DevOps, live in 60 seconds.

How it works with your enterprise client

A real-world example. Your client's procurement team requires SFTP delivery for weekly reports — here's the setup from zero to live.

1
create_new_folder

Create directory "acme-corp-weekly-reports"

Sign up free and hit "New Directory" in the Bridglet dashboard. Name it after your client. One directory keeps their files isolated and credentials scoped — just like an enterprise SFTP setup, without the enterprise price tag.

Dashboard → Directories → New → acme-corp-weekly-reports
2
send

Send credentials to your client's IT contact

Bridglet generates a unique username and password scoped only to this directory. Copy, paste into an email to the client's IT or procurement contact, and you're done. They see a professional SFTP endpoint — not a shared Dropbox link.

cloud_upload

Upload your weekly reports via SFTP

Use any SFTP client — FileZilla, Cyberduck, or a scripted upload from your BI tool — to push your deliverables into the directory. Files land instantly. Your client's automated pipeline picks them up on their schedule.

Add a second client for $15/mo — not $432/mo

When you land another enterprise client with SFTP requirements, create a second directory. Upgrade to the Starter plan for $15/month and manage up to five client directories — each fully isolated with their own credentials.

Why freelancers choose Bridglet

Enterprise clients say "SFTP" and most freelancers panic. Bridglet means you never have to say "I'll need a few days to sort out infrastructure" again.

savings

Free for your first client

One directory, one set of credentials, zero dollars. AWS Transfer starts at $216/month before you upload a single byte. Bridglet starts at $0.

verified

Professional-looking credentials

Your client sees sftp.bridglet.com and a named username — not a random IP, not a Google Drive link. You look like you have real infrastructure.

folder_managed

Per-client isolation

Each client gets their own directory and their own credentials. Client A cannot see Client B's deliverables. Revoke one without touching the others when a contract ends.

cloud_done

No server to manage

No EC2 instances. No SSH key rotation. No CloudFormation stacks. You are a solo operator — Bridglet handles the infrastructure so you can focus on delivering analysis, not managing servers.

Your client said SFTP. You're live in 60 seconds.

No credit card required. Your first client directory is free. Send credentials the same day they ask.
