Ukebaco

Receiving and organizing files,
solved with one link.

Your clients need no Google account and no sign-up. Files arrive in your Google Drive already organized. Large files up to 2 GB each come through as they are.

  • Effortless
  • Safe
  • Low cost
Start for freeFree covers 5 files a month. No credit card needed. Launch offer: Pro is ¥1,100 (tax incl.) a month for the first 3 months.

Collecting files from clients: does any of this sound familiar?

They cannot send, or give up halfway

File upload in Google Forms requires the sender to sign in to Google. "I cannot log in" or "I will send it another way" ends the conversation.

Email attachments hit the size limit

Files get split up, transfer-service URLs fly back and forth, and nobody knows which one is current. Work for them, work for you.

Tidying up eats your time

Save, rename, move into the project folder. A few minutes per file, every week, forever.

No way to find who sent what, and when

Searching the inbox, discovering an expired transfer link, asking the client to send it again. Nothing is on record.

Ukebaco ends all of this with one thing: handing over a single link.
The sender opens the link and uploads. The files land in your Google Drive, already organized.

Ukebaco in 25 seconds

Three steps, nothing more

  1. Create a link

    Pick the Google Drive folder to save into. Add the fields you want to ask for (company, contact name, and so on).

  2. Send it to your client

    By email or chat, one URL is all it takes. No Google account, no sign-up on their side.

  3. Files arrive organized

    Each file goes into its project folder with a tidy name, and one row is added to the ledger. No manual work.

Effortless, safe, low cost.

Effortless

Everything after receiving is automatic.

  • Folders per project, tidy file names, and a ledger entry, all done for you
  • Clients need no sign-in or sign-up. Sending works from a phone, and large uploads resume if the connection drops
  • Keep your current Google Forms or email workflow. Just paste the link

Safe

Built to never hold your files, so you can trust it with them.

  • Files go from the browser straight to Google Drive and never sit on Ukebaco's servers
  • The only permission requested covers files the app creates and folders you pick. It cannot read the rest of your Drive
  • The upload page always shows the creator's address and safety notices, which makes impersonation hard. Add a PIN or a deadline when you need them

Low cost

Start on Free, move to Pro when you need it.

  • Free stays free for 5 files a month. No credit card needed
  • Pro is ¥2,200 / month (tax incl.) for unlimited links, 500 files a month and 2 GB per file
  • Self-serve, with no spend on ads or sales. Pay only when, and for what, you need

This describes how the mechanisms generally differ. It does not refer to any specific service.

Where it is used

Accountants and tax offices

Monthly receipts and invoices from clients

Filed automatically under "Client / 2026-09". One look at the ledger shows who has not sent yet

Design, print and production studios

Artwork and photo assets from clients

Files up to 2 GB straight from the browser, lined up in the project folder as "time_contact_original name"

Recruiting

Résumés and portfolios from applicants

One folder per applicant. Set a deadline and submissions close on their own

Legal and administrative professionals

Identity documents and application paperwork from clients

A PIN-protected link means knowing the URL is not enough to send. Email verification for senders too

Site photos, drawings and reports from subcontractors

Shoot on a phone and send right away. Everything lands in folders by site and date, so nothing needs finding

Schools and courses

Assignments and work from students

Sorted and renamed by student. Who submitted, and when, is logged automatically

Trip and event photos and videos from friends and family

No app and no Google account needed. Everything gathers in a folder per sender, easy to find later
