Email on your domain

[email protected] in the browser, on your phone or in the mail app you already use. With spam filtering and domain signing (SPF, DKIM and DMARC) so your mail gets delivered.

Drive and documents

Store, sync and share files by link. Edit documents and spreadsheets in the browser, with your team.

Calendar and contacts

Shared calendars and contacts that sync with your phone and computer.

One account

Everyone signs in with their GreenByte account, with two-step verification. You invite and remove your team from your panel.

Where your data lives

Your files and email are stored encrypted in three different community homes, on reused computers powered by the sun. Each home keeps a full copy, so if one goes offline the others keep answering, and none of them can read your content. The server that coordinates the service lives in a data center and only keeps the indexes.

Frequently asked questions

Who can read my email and files?

The homes that store them only hold encrypted data and never the key. Like any email service, our server processes your messages to deliver and show them to you; we don't use them for anything else.

Do I need my own domain?

Yes. Solar Workspace works with your organization's domain. If you don't have one, you can buy it with GreenByte.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Email, calendar and contacts work on iPhone and Android with their built-in apps, and files with the Nextcloud app.

Can several people edit the same document at once?

Yes. Documents, spreadsheets and presentations are edited with OnlyOffice, in its free community edition, and several people can edit together in real time. Its limits, up front: the maker recommends it for teams of up to 20 people, so it can get slower with many people editing at once; it has no support from the maker (we support you); and on a phone we currently suggest opening documents to view them and editing from a computer.

What if I run out of space?

Your team shares a pool: whoever needs more uses what others don't, and nothing sits unused. If it fills up, add storage from your panel at $2 per GB a month. If you prefer, give each person a fixed amount.

Can you move my email and files from Google or Microsoft?

We're preparing migration tools. For now we help case by case: write to us.
