BeneficA media server, without the homework
The five-minute setup every self-hosting platform promises and never delivers. Install Benefic, point it at your media folder, and you're done — no ports to forward, no DNS records to wire up, no firewall rules to write.

Your files stay on your hardware
Benefic streams your library directly from your machine to your devices over encrypted peer-to-peer WebRTC. No cloud storage, no relay servers, nothing to trust beyond the hardware you already own.

Starting with audio
We're building Benefic one medium at a time — audio first, then the rest. While the streaming server is still in the oven, the metadata editor that powers its library is already public and free to use in your browser.
