Transmit application preview

Transmit is a Mac file-transfer client from Panic for moving files between a local Mac, remote servers, and supported cloud storage. It combines familiar dual-pane browsing with transfer tools for people who maintain websites, servers, or remote archives.

Save a server connection, browse local and remote folders side by side, then upload, download, rename, or synchronize the files you need. Favorite servers can be kept in Panic Sync when that optional service is enabled.

Features

  • Connect over FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, and Amazon S3, among other supported destinations.
  • Browse local and remote folders in a dual-pane interface.
  • Sync folder contents and manage batches of transfers.
  • Store favorite connections and optionally sync them through Panic Sync.

Where it fits

Transmit fits developers and site maintainers who transfer files often enough to value a dedicated client. It is more capable than an occasional command-line copy, but connection permissions and backups still matter when modifying a live server.

Privacy and requirements

Remote file contents and credentials travel to the destination configured by the user; Panic Sync is optional for saved connection data. Use encrypted protocols such as SFTP or HTTPS-backed services where available, and keep production credentials protected.

Pricing

Transmit 5 is available as a $45 one-time direct purchase from Panic, or a separate Mac App Store subscription listed at $24.99 per year.
