mytens

MyTens is a technology company that offers a cloud-based platform for secure file sharing and collaborative project management. The company was founded in 2016 by a group of software engineers with experience in distributed systems and cybersecurity. Its headquarters are located in Berlin, Germany, and it maintains additional development offices in San Francisco and Tokyo.

The core product, MyTens Share, allows users to upload documents, set granular access permissions, and track version history. The platform is marketed toward enterprises seeking to replace traditional file servers with a SaaS solution that complies with data protection regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). In addition to file sharing, MyTens offers a suite of collaboration tools including task assignment, real‑time chat, and integration APIs for popular productivity suites such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.

MyTens has raised a total of $45 million in venture capital over three funding rounds, with investors including Earlybird Venture Capital and SoftBank Vision Fund. As of 2024, the company reports more than 50,000 active business users worldwide and processes several terabytes of data daily.

Critics have raised concerns regarding the company's data residency policies, citing that data may be stored in multiple international jurisdictions. In response, MyTens has implemented a data residency selector that allows customers to choose the geographic location of their storage pods. The company also publishes an annual transparency report detailing security audits and compliance certifications.
