Share .braw files
Share your BRAW file in one link
Drop your .braw file, name the link and send it. They download the original in one click — no attachment limit, no shared-drive permissions, nothing converted along the way.
- One-click download of the untouched original
- No attachment limit, no 'request access'
- Replace it later and the same link shows the new version
Drop the BRAW file you want to share
Any other file works too — up to 25.0 MB, or 100.0 MB for a whole site
Why share a BRAW file as a link?
Raw files are what a retoucher or editor actually needs — and exactly what chat apps, email and most photo services refuse or convert. A link hands over the untouched sensor data as a one-click download, without a shared-drive folder the client has to be invited to.
Usually you'd be sending it to a client, a retoucher or an editor who'll process the raw file. They don't need an account, and you don't need to know which app or device they'll open it on.

Here's the BRAW file 👇

Got it, opened fine on my phone 👍
On their side
What the person you send it to sees
They tap the link and the .braw file (Blackmagic raw video) downloads straight away, exactly as you uploaded it, ready to open in DaVinci Resolve or whatever they use for .braw files.
What they need
- DaVinci Resolve, which has the deepest support
- Premiere Pro and Final Cut, with the plugin
- Blackmagic RAW Player, free
- No account — the download starts from the link
Sending a BRAW file: link vs. the usual ways
What happens to a .braw file when you email it, drop it in a chat or put it in a cloud drive — and what changes when you send a link instead.
Email attachment
Most mail providers cap attachments at roughly 20–25 MB, and every revision means another email.
Chat app
Chat apps either refuse raw files or convert them to a JPEG, throwing away the data that makes raw worth sending.
Cloud drive
Drives often can't preview raw formats, and clients get stuck at a sign-in or access request.
A 99helpers link
The original file, byte for byte, at a link you choose. Password it, see how often it's opened, and replace it at the same link whenever you need to.
Sharing takes about ten seconds
- 1
Drop it
Drag your .braw file onto the box, or pick it from your computer or phone.
- 2
Name the link
Choose the words: q3-report.99helpers.site reads better than a random string.
- 3
Send it anywhere
Paste the link into an email, a chat, a document, a bio or a QR code.
When people share raw photos like this
Delivering to a client
Hand over a selected raw file the client asked for.
Sending to a retoucher
Give an editor the original, not a compressed JPEG.
Asking for a second opinion
Share a raw file with another photographer to process their way.
Backing up a keeper
Put your favourite frame at an address you can always reach.
What people send .braw files for
- Footage from Blackmagic Pocket and URSA cameras
- Clips sent to a colourist
- Dailies for client review
- Reference clips for a grade
Before you share your BRAW file
- Send a JPEG preview alongside so the client can see which frame it is.
- Check the file is under the size limit — very high-resolution raws can exceed it.
- Strip GPS data if the location is private.
- Name the address after the shoot, so the link makes sense later.
Sending the link isn't the end of it
An attachment is gone the moment you press send. A link is still yours: you decide who can open it, what it shows and how long it stays.
Fix it after sending
Upload a corrected version to the same link. Everyone who has it sees the new one; old versions are kept.
Keep it private
Add a password so only the people you give it to can open the link.
Know it was opened
See how many times the link has been visited, so you're not left wondering.
Take it back
Delete it and the link stops working — something you can't do with an email attachment.
Sharing BRAW files: questions
How do I share a .braw file?+
Drop it on this page, choose the words for your link, and publish. You get an address like your-name.99helpers.site to paste into an email, a chat, a document or a QR code. Whoever clicks it gets the file as a download.
Does the person I send it to need an account?+
No account is needed. They click the link and the file downloads; to open it they'll need DaVinci Resolve or another app that reads .braw files.
Can I share a BRAW file privately?+
Yes. Add a password when you publish and only people you give it to can open the link. You can also ask for a name and email before the file is shown.
What if I need to change the file after sending the link?+
Upload the new version to the same address. Everyone who has the link gets the update, and the previous versions are kept in case you need one back.
Can I share several BRAW files at once?+
Yes. Drop a folder or a .zip instead of a single file and everything goes out under one link, each file at its own address inside it. How much you can upload depends on your plan — the limits are on the pricing page.
Will the raw data be preserved?+
Yes. The file is delivered byte-for-byte as uploaded — nothing is converted to JPEG or recompressed.
Can the client see it without editing software?+
Not the raw file itself; send a JPEG preview alongside it so they can see the picture straight away.
Sharing something else?
Want it online for good?
If the file should stay at a permanent public address — a download page, an embed, part of a site — see host a Blackmagic RAW file.
