Olifant

Your files, for every AI you use.

A file store built for AI. Connect claude.ai → Claude Code → your agents → and they work in the same files you do.

Every change on record. Less context than a local folder. Your files stay files.

Request an invite

In private testing. Paid sign-up opens in November 2026.

The product

One place for your files. Every AI can work in it.

Olifant gives the AI tools you already use a shared, permanent place for files: your trunk. Connect it once, and claude.ai, Claude Code and your own agents can find, read, edit and save files on your behalf, PDFs, images and Office documents included. You keep working the way you do today: in folders, with versions, from any device.

What it is

A file store with a connector for AI

Folders, versions, share links and a web app for people. An MCP connector and a REST API that give every AI the same access to the same files.

What it does

Lets your AI work in your files

  • Finds, reads, edits and saves files when you ask
  • Records every change with its author and reason
  • Reads PDFs and Office files as text, keeps the originals
  • Opens any file on your phone from a link
How it works
  1. Connect. Add Olifant to claude.ai or Claude Code with one sign-in.
  2. Work. Ask your AI to save, find or edit files. It works in your trunk directly.
  3. Review. Open the result on any device, compare versions, undo what an AI did.

Connector and API

Works today with claude.ai and Claude Code through MCP. Every tool is also a REST endpoint with API keys for your own agents. Other MCP clients are planned and will be listed once tested.

Versions and history

Every save is a version with who made it, which AI and why. Compare, restore, or undo everything one AI did since a given time. A year of history on every plan.

Web app

Upload, folders, search, a markdown editor and previews for PDFs, images and spreadsheets. Designed for the phone first.

Share links

Share a file or folder with a link or a QR code, with an expiry you set.

Teams and families

One shared store for up to six people, or per-seat Business plans beyond that. Shared by default, with private folders where you want them.

Agents view

One card for each AI you have connected: what it can reach, everything it did, and an undo button.

Why Olifant

Built for the way AI works.

Cloud drives were designed for people. Their AI connectors wrap that design, and the AI pays for it in context, tokens and extra steps. Olifant is designed around how an AI reads, searches and edits.

01 · Efficiency

Less of the context window. More room to work.

Every tool an AI loads and every file it reads takes space in its context window. Olifant keeps that footprint small: nine compact tools, a ranked map of the store in the first call, search that returns the matching lines, and reads by range or section instead of whole files.

Measured on blind tasks, an AI on Olifant used less than half the context it needs in a local folder, and passed more of the tasks.

Illustrative. Tool definitions for Dropbox (24 tools, estimated) and Olifant (9 tools, measured) and the local-folder ratio come from our benchmark. The Google Drive and OneDrive bars, and the connectors' call volumes, are placeholders until we measure them.

Measured on Oct 24, 2026, with Claude Sonnet on a test store of 456 files: 18 tasks the system had not been tuned on, five runs each. Context is what the AI's tool calls and results add to its window. The method and the tasks will be published at launch.

02 · Understanding

Agents get it right the first time.

The connector describes itself the way an agent expects: short tool names, clear parameters, and results that carry what the next step needs. A listing comes ranked by importance, with a one-line description of each file. A search returns the files and the lines that match. Dates, sizes and authors are always there.

An agent that does not have to guess does not have to retry. Fewer steps, fewer tokens, and answers you can check.

03 · One store

Shared by every AI you use, and everyone you work with.

Your files are not tied to one model or one app. claude.ai, Claude Code and agents on your own machines read and write the same store, so what one AI saves, the next one finds. Your trunk holds the memory and working files of all your AIs in one place that you can open, edit and export.

In a family or a team, each person's AI sees what that person sees. The Agents view shows every AI connected to your trunk, what it did, and an undo button. With the AI add-on, services on our side keep notes and memory files tidy and handle routine upkeep.

One trunk shared by every AI and every personA central trunk connected to claude.ai, Claude Code, your own agents through the API, teammates and you on any device.
