FeaturesFiles
File Sharing Without Extra Tools
Upload files into spaces, tasks, chats, and docs. Filter by type or uploader, preview images inline, and reference any file with # from anywhere.
Free forever for up to 5 users. No credit card required.

Inside Files
Every part of file management, shown in the product
These are the screens your team works in every day. Explore what each one does before you sign up.
UPLOAD AND FOLDERS
Drop a file wherever the work is happening
Upload from a task, a chat, a document, or the files view itself, into folders inside the relevant space. Every file type is supported, and the file lands beside the work that explains why it exists.

See who shared what, and when
Switch between list and board display, with columns for sharing state, file type, date, and uploader. It answers the question people actually ask, which is who put this here and is it the current version.

FILTERS AND ORDERING
Find files without remembering the folder
Filter by file type or by uploader, and order by name, type, upload date, author, or sharing state. Finding last quarter’s deck should not depend on someone having named the folder sensibly.

REFERENCES WITH #
Point at a file instead of re-uploading it
Type # in a chat, task, or doc to reference a file that already exists. One asset in one place, rather than four copies of the same deck drifting apart in different message threads.

Perfect, no need to re-upload it — I will point the task at the same file.

PREVIEWS, ACTIONS AND RECOVERY
Look, share, and undo without downloading
Preview images inline, then rename, duplicate, download, share with a link, or copy a direct link. Anything deleted stays in Recently Deleted for 30 days, so a wrong click is not a lost afternoon.

AI SEARCH INSIDE FILES
Search what the file says, not what it is called
AI search reads content inside PDFs and images as well as tasks, docs, and messages. A clause in a signed contract or a number in a screenshot becomes findable without opening every file in the folder.

A file sits in a space with the task, conversation, or document that explains it, and can be pulled into any other conversation with a # reference.
File replacement answers
When Edworking can replace a separate file tool
Common questions from teams deciding which files belong in a drive and which belong beside the work.
How do teams find a file later?
Filter by type or uploader, order by name, date, author, or sharing state, or use AI search, which reads content inside PDFs and images rather than only filenames.
When should teams still use a storage-only tool?
Long term archives, digital asset management, and workflows that need file version history or retention policies are still better served by a dedicated storage system.
Best for teams that need
- Project files attached to tasks and decisions.
- Fewer handoffs between drive folders, chat, and task boards.
- AI search that reads inside PDFs and images.
May not be the best fit if
- You need file version history or a replace-version workflow.
- You manage a specialist media library or digital asset manager.
- You require retention policies, expiring links, or governance metadata.

File sharing FAQ
In folders inside each space, and attached to the tasks, chats, and docs where they were shared. The same file can be referenced from anywhere with #.
Yes. AI search reads content inside PDFs and images, so you can find a file by what it says rather than what it is called.
Deleted files and folders stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days and can be restored from there.
Not today. Edworking is built for active project files, so teams that need version history or retention policies should keep a dedicated storage system for those assets.
