Why is Keeply more than a backup tool?

Backup tools only remember the current file; Keeply remembers every version, every note, every decision you made. Six months later when a client asks "who decided this?" you open Keeply and find the answer in seconds — that's a capability backup tools simply cannot give you.

💡

Remember your WHY

Don't just remember what changed — remember why you changed it.

Six months later when a client asks "Who made this decision?" you won't need to dig through emails. Open Keeply — the answer is right there.

Your project time machine

Every save is like taking a snapshot. Go back to any day, anytime.

Made a mistake? Just go back. Client changed their mind? Find the old version in three seconds. Audit time? Complete records right here.

🛡️

Edit boldly, we remember everything

No more choosing between "make it better" and "too scared to change it."

Keeply protects every version so you can experiment freely. No matter what you change, you can always go back.

🔍

See every change, side-by-side

Visual diff for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDFs, and images.

Not just a list of modified files — Keeply shows you exactly what changed, with Office documents, PDFs, and images displayed side-by-side with highlighted differences. For every other file type, track versions and restore any point in seconds.

📦

Handles big files silently

Blender, PSD, video — all work out of the box.

Keeply automatically detects 38 binary file formats and any file over 10 MB, routing them through large-file storage without a single configuration step. No LFS setup, no repo bloat, no broken saves on large projects.

🌿

Try bold changes safely

Create a work copy, experiment, then merge back.

Work copies let you branch off from your project to try a radical new design or a risky refactor, then merge the changes back when they're ready — or delete the work copy if the experiment didn't pan out. Your main project stays untouched the whole time.

Who uses Keeply, and what jobs is it built for?

Project managers, designers, lawyers, academics, engineers, and remote teams — anyone whose work needs long-lived version history, decision context, or escape from "final_v3" filename chaos. Files stay on your disk under your control — nothing is sent anywhere unless you explicitly choose to send it.

📋

Project Management

Every file in your project has a story. A single note from six months ago could save the entire project.

🎨

Design & Creative

When a client says "Actually, I liked the first version better" — you need just three seconds. Every version is there.

⚖️

Legal & Contracts

Seventeen revisions of a contract, and every single one is preserved. Who changed it, when, and why — crystal clear.

📚

Academic Research

Thesis_final_REALLY_final_v3.docx? Track with Keeply and never get confused again.

🏗️

Construction & AEC

Site engineer grabs a USB drive for the client meeting. Admin approves the backup location — and revokes it when the project ends.

🌐

Remote & Hybrid Teams

Office team on the NAS, remote designer on GitHub. Same vault, same version history — everyone stays in sync.

How is Keeply different from Dropbox, Google Drive, or Git?

Dropbox and Google Drive sync the current file and purge version history after 30 days; Git is built for engineers with a steep learning curve. Keeply rewrites version control for local files: every version kept forever, no cloud lock-in, no engineer-only barrier, install and go.

How much does Keeply cost, and do teams pay per seat?

Individual tier is free forever with no expiry; Team plan is a flat $25/month (no seat cap) with files on your own NAS. Founding Member is a one-time $599 perpetual license, limited to 500 buyers. No subscriptions, no per-seat fees, no hidden tiers.

One vault. One team. Full control.

What is a "Team Vault"?

Team Vault uses a "1 Canonical + 1 Shared Mirror" topology: the Canonical is the source of truth for project versions (NAS, shared folder, or external drive); the Shared Mirror is a full snapshot synced from the Canonical so any team member can quickly get the latest. Each member also has their own Work Copy. The data form can be Standard mode (browse and edit files directly) or Protected mode (prevent destructive history changes).

No cloud lock-in. No per-seat fees. Your data lives on your own hardware, under your control.

Free

Free: 1 Canonical + 1 Shared Mirror, fully self-managed. No approval needed, no cooldowns.

Team

Team plan (planned): same 1 Canonical + 1 Shared Mirror topology, plus member management, Shared Mirror location governance (admin approval gatekeeping and change-rate throttling, so the location won't be carelessly altered to disrupt the team), conflict detection, and team activity logs.

How do I download Keeply, and is it paid?

Frequently asked questions

Does Keeply work offline?
Yes. Keeply's version management runs fully locally — no cloud, no account. Your project files, version history, and notes all stay on your hard drive or NAS, and you can work in airplane mode or on an air-gapped machine. By default the app touches the network only for license verification and update checks (which you can disable). The one exception is the optional AI assistant (off by default): if you enable it and select files, that content goes from your machine directly to the AI provider you choose — or use a local model and stay fully offline.
How is Keeply different from Dropbox or Google Drive?
Dropbox and Google Drive sync the current state of files; Keeply records every version as a separate snapshot. Dropbox and Drive charge per user per month; Keeply is free for individuals and will have a flat $25/month Team plan (coming soon) regardless of team size. Your files live on your disk, not a vendor server, so you are not locked into a subscription.
What happens to my files if I stop paying?
Nothing. Keeply files are stored on your hard drive or NAS in a standard folder structure you control. Even if you uninstall Keeply, the files and their version history remain readable by any file manager. You are not paying for access to your own work — the Founding Member license is a one-time perpetual payment, and the free tier stays free forever.
Can my team share files without per-seat licensing?
Yes. In the free tier, teams already share a single vault folder over NAS or a shared drive — Keeply does not count seats. The upcoming Team plan ($25/month flat, planned) adds invite-code onboarding and an admin dashboard, but still without per-seat fees. Compare this with Dropbox Business at $20 per seat per month, which costs $120/month for a 6-person team.
What file types does Keeply support?
Any file. Keeply shows side-by-side visual diff for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, and images. For every other file type — Blender, PSD, video, CAD, 3D models, source code — Keeply tracks versions and lets you restore any point in seconds. Files over 10MB and 38 known binary formats are auto-detected and routed to large-file storage without any setup or LFS configuration.
Is there a Linux version?
Keeply currently ships for Windows 10 or later and macOS on Apple Silicon. A Linux build is on the roadmap but has not shipped yet. If Linux support is critical for your workflow, please tell us via the contact form — we prioritize platform support based on actual user demand, and every request is logged.
What is the $599 Founding Member plan?
A one-time payment for a perpetual license, limited to the first 500 buyers. You get current Keeply features forever, plus all Team plan features automatically when the Team plan ships. No recurring billing, no surprise price hikes. For comparison, $25/month for 24 months equals $600 — Founding Member pays for itself in under two years and keeps going.
Why can't I use my ChatGPT Plus / Claude Pro subscription with the AI assistant?
Consumer subscription terms prohibit third-party apps from automating those accounts, and users have been suspended without warning or refund for doing so. Official API keys are the safe way to do this — they are designed for exactly this, and you pay only for what you actually use.
Is my AI API key safe in Keeply?
Your key is stored only in your computer's system credential vault (Windows Credential Manager / macOS Keychain). Keeply never uploads, retains, or even sees it — requests go from your machine directly to the provider you chose.
How much does the AI assistant cost to use?
You pay your AI provider directly, by actual usage — processing a document typically costs a few cents (USD). Keeply never handles the money and adds no markup; your exact bill is in your provider's dashboard. With a local model, there are no API fees at all.
Can I use the AI assistant completely offline?
Yes — in local mode, Keeply works with models running on your own machine (for example Gemma or Llama via Ollama). Your files never leave your computer, and there are no API fees.
