Securely integrating with a customer data set is a huge bottleneck for companies like mine trying to deliver value with a new data product. General Folders is the only company I've seen that understands the many facets of this problem and is working on an elegant solution.

The era of the data silos is over. General Folders is part of a new generation of companies that will make cross-company data collaboration the new normal for growth, operations, and value creation.

General Folders is solving a very real problem that we see at companies of every size on a near daily basis. If you work in the data space, you know there aren't any good solutions to facilitate and manage data sharing across companies. The General Folders team have been in the seat and they have clearly thought through the details.

Every week, I talk to companies sitting on heaps of raw data that could be turned to gold if they could just refine and share it. Unfortunately, this is harder than it looks and needs to be. Companies have needed an easy button for sharing for ages – and with General Folders, they finally have it.

There's loads of manual, poorly specified, but critically important data sharing that goes on across companies today. General Folders is the one working to fix it.

Our business relies on transferring customer data to our warehouse. We had to roll our own transfer pipelines. We continue to invest because it's fundamental to our workflows. A solution like General Folders would massively lower friction to use our product.

Features

General Folders gives companies a governed way to exchange operational data with customers and partners.

01

Run every transfer from one dashboard

Define an exchange, connect the source and destination endpoints you own, and set a cadence. General Folders schedules each run and reports live status.

02

Owned connections, isolated execution

Each organization connects only the endpoints it owns, with credentials held as secret references. Transfers execute in isolated workers, so payloads move through the run instead of pooling in storage.

03

Proof every transfer worked

Every run records counts, checksums, retries, and failure detail behind a permission-scoped audit trail, so you can confirm delivery and troubleshoot without exposing raw data.

04

API-first, built to embed

Every exchange is an API object with status webhooks. Create and track transfers from the API, or embed the setup flow so your customers never leave your product.
