I needed to move 500 GB between cloud services. So I built a free tool to do it.

I had 500 GB on OneDrive and needed to move everything to Google Drive. The options were:

1. Download and re-upload — would take days and eat my local storage
2. Paid services (MultCloud, Cloudsfer) — route files through their servers, charge per GB, require an account
3. rclone — powerful but requires command-line knowledge and reading docs for every flag

None of these worked for me. So I built CloudHop.

What is CloudHop?

A free, open-source GUI that transfers files between 70+ cloud storage providers. It wraps rclone in a visual interface anyone can use.

• Pick source → pick destination → start transfer
• Live dashboard with speed charts, ETA, and file counts
• Pause, resume, and schedule transfers
• Copy, sync, or two-way bisync
• Files go directly between clouds through your local connection — never through external servers
• MIT licensed, no accounts, no tracking

Install

pip install cloudhop && cloudhop

Or download native installers from GitHub Releases (Mac DMG, Windows ZIP).

Docker:

docker run -d -p 8787:8787 -v ~/.config/rclone:/root/.config/rclone:ro husamsoboh/cloudhop:latest

Homebrew:

brew tap ozymandiashh/tap && brew install cloudhop

How it compares

Feature	CloudHop	MultCloud	rclone CLI
Price	Free	Paid	Free
GUI	Yes	Yes	No
Open source	MIT	No	MIT
Files routed through	Your machine	Their servers	Your machine
Account required	No	Yes	No
Providers	70+	30+	70+

Tech stack

Python, pywebview for the native window, vanilla JS for the dashboard. rclone handles the actual transfers. 597 tests, pre-commit hooks with ruff, CI with GitHub Actions.

Looking for feedback

If you use cloud storage and have opinions on what a transfer tool should do, I'd love to hear from you.
