Some things are
nobody else’s business.
Encloq is one private place for confidential work. Files, conversations, revisions, acknowledgements and signatures stay together, encrypted on your device for the people you choose.
Encloq at a glance
- What it is
- Not another cloud drive, but a workspace where the conversation and the work stay together: files, messages, versions and signatures in one place.
- Who it’s for
- Professionals and the people they work for: tax advisers, law firms, architects, photographers, property managers and consultants.
- What we promise
- Encrypted on your device. Opened with a passkey. Readable by the people you choose, not by us.
Confidential work
is scattered.
One engagement, and already four places to keep track of. Each with its own sign-in, its own copy and its own rules.

Four places, four sign-ins and something confidential in each of them.One conversation. One sign-in. Private from the first message.
Easy or private?
You shouldn’t have to choose.
Easy usually means sending it like everything else and hoping it stays private.Private usually means extra software, extra passwords and extra steps for your client.Encloq is both: as easy as a message, and private from the first one.
Private by default.
For every profession.
We imagine a Europe where confidential work is private by default: where every profession works with its clients as easily as sending a message, and nobody has to think about encryption to be protected by it.
- Tax advisers
Receipts arrive from a phone between two appointments, and the question about them stays beside the file.
- Law firms
A draft, its comments, the next version and the signature live in one conversation.
- Photographers
A whole shoot goes out in full resolution, and supported RAW files open right where they arrived.
None of them thinks about encryption.All of them are protected by it.
Who we are.
What we stand for.
Eight commitments that decide how we build Encloq and how we run the company behind it.
The work, not just the files.
Encloq is not a cloud drive with encryption added. Our value lies in the work around a file: the question beside the document, the version that counts, the invitation with clear boundaries and the signature that closes it. Storage serves that work.
One place instead of four toolsYour work never trains AI.
Encloq is paid for by its customers, not by data. Your files and messages are encrypted on your device, so we can’t read them, and our terms rule out using your content for advertising or to train AI models.
European by conviction.
We are an Austrian company, and we share Europe’s view of privacy: your data belongs to you, and protecting it is a duty, not a favour.
Datenschutz is a value, not a checkbox.
German has a single word for data protection, and we treat it as a promise. Encryption is part of every plan, with no mode to switch on. Hidden metadata is removed from supported files before upload, and even search runs on your device.
The highest security standards we can reach.
Content is encrypted on your device before it leaves, and passkeys sign you in and unlock your data. Key exchange and content signatures are hybrid: a proven classical algorithm paired with a post-quantum one from NIST’s highest security category. Aegis, our cryptographic toolkit built on open standards, brings the post-quantum algorithms to browsers that don’t offer them yet.
Honest about limits.
Encryption protects content, not everything around it. Account, billing and some operational data still reach us, recipients can keep a copy of what they see, and signatures in Encloq are not qualified electronic signatures. We say so plainly, because trust depends on it.
How Encloq keeps your work privateCalm by design.
Security should not feel like a vault door. We design every screen to be quiet and precise: no flicker, no clutter and nothing that asks you to understand cryptography.
