Features / Quick Transfer
Your uploads finish
before your coffee.
You just shot a 12-hour wedding. You have 2,000 RAW files to deliver. With every other service, that's an overnight upload. With Burst, it's done before you sit down. No file limits, no splitting, no starting over when WiFi drops.

Sound familiar?
Every photographer has this night.
You come home exhausted from a 12-hour wedding shoot. You import your cards. You start uploading. And then you wait. And wait. And realize it won't finish before tomorrow's engagement session.
“My uploads take all night”
You shot 1,800 photos today. Now you're staring at a progress bar until 2 AM because your transfer service uploads one file at a time. Tomorrow you have another shoot.
Burst finishes in a fraction of the time by filling your entire upload pipe — no dead time, no gaps, no waiting for one file to finish before the next starts.
“WeTransfer has a 2 GB limit”
A single wedding shoot is 40-80 GB of RAW files. WeTransfer caps free users at 2 GB. Even their paid plan means splitting into dozens of separate transfers.
No file size or transfer size limits. Send 2,000 files, 100+ GB, in a single transfer — one link, one download.
“My transfer failed halfway through”
You uploaded for 3 hours. Your WiFi dropped for 5 seconds. The entire transfer failed. Start over. This happens more than it should.
Burst automatically retries failed files with smart backoff. A brief WiFi dropout doesn't restart your transfer — only the affected files retry silently.
“I have to split files across 5 transfers”
Your client needs all the photos in one place. Instead, you're sending 5 separate links because no service can handle the full delivery.
One transfer. One link. Everything arrives together. Your client opens one page and downloads everything.
“Dropbox links look unprofessional”
You just delivered a $5,000 wedding. The final experience your client sees? A generic Dropbox folder with filenames like DSC_0847.NEF.
Burst delivers through your branded portal. Your name, your style, a premium experience that matches the quality of your work.

Feels instant.
Progress races from the start. Hundreds of files complete before you even look at the screen. That's not an illusion — Burst moves your smallest files first so the momentum hits immediately.
Set it and forget it.
Network hiccup? Burst retries silently. Your upload doesn't restart. You don't babysit it. You go edit, eat dinner, or sleep. It finishes.
How it works
Why it's actually faster.
No gaps between files
Most services pause after each file to set up the next one. Multiply that by 2,000 files — 20+ minutes wasted. Burst pre-loads the next batch while current files are still moving.
Small files finish first
Burst sorts your files smallest-first. Your progress counter races from the start — 847 of 2,000 done before the big RAWs even begin.
Your full bandwidth, used
Other services only use a fraction of your internet speed. Burst saturates your entire upload pipe — if you have 50 Mbps upload, you're using all of it.
Files go straight to the edge
Your files upload directly to a global edge network. No middleman server, no relay, no bottleneck. Your client downloads from their nearest data center.
Network drops don't kill it
WiFi hiccup? Coffee shop change? Burst retries the affected files automatically. You might not even notice. Your transfer doesn't start over.
You'll see the speed difference
A real-time badge shows exactly how much faster Burst is compared to traditional transfers. It's not a claim — it's a measurement, live, during your upload.
