IPFS pinning on storage that proves itself
Infura's IPFS service ends August 15, 2026. Your data on Pinner lives on a network of independent hosts paid to keep it.
Any file, any size. Encrypted before it leaves your device.
A unique fingerprint derived from your file's contents.
A permanent link. Valid as long as your content is pinned.

Storage
Your data lives on a network, not our servers
Zero-knowledge encryption
Keys never leave your device. We can't read your files.
Verifiable storage
Hosts prove they're holding your data. Or they don't get paid.
Open source
Fully open on GitHub. Don't take our word for it. Read the code.
Migration
Need help moving your pins? We'll help you migrate.
Content addresses (CIDs) come from your file's content, so they stay the same across providers. The same file pinned on Pinner has the same CID as it did on Infura. Pin your existing CIDs and they're live. Before August 15, update any Infura API endpoints, dedicated gateway URLs, hardcoded asset links, and backend environment variables. If you have a large collection, reach out and we'll work with you on the transition.
Frequently Asked Questions
Your original files and any CIDs you had pinned on Infura. Content addresses (CIDs) come from your file's content, so the same files produce the same CIDs. Pin your existing CIDs on Pinner and they're live. If you used Infura's dedicated gateway URLs, update those to Pinner's endpoints.
Infura is ending its IPFS service on August 15, 2026. New uploads and pinning stop on August 3. After August 15, Infura's IPFS API and dedicated gateways shut down, and any content you haven't moved goes offline. The shutdown follows earlier restrictions: Infura disabled new key creation in late 2024, introduced a 5 USD monthly minimum in September 2025, and limited access to pre-qualified customers.
Pinner stores your data on the Sia network, where independent hosts must cryptographically prove they're storing it to get paid. You also get website hosting from pinned content, crypto payments with no KYC, and fully open source code. Content addresses stay the same, so your existing CIDs work as-is.
Yes. Content addresses (CIDs) come from your file's content, so they stay the same regardless of provider. The same file pinned on Pinner has the same CID as it did on Infura or any other IPFS service. Pin your existing CIDs on Pinner and they resolve to the same content.
Yes. If you have your IPNS private key, you can import it into Pinner and continue publishing to the same IPNS address. The address stays the same; only the publishing service changes.
Static sites: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Portfolios, documentation, landing pages, blogs generated by static site generators (Hugo, Astro, Next.js static export, Gatsby, Jekyll, 11ty, and more). No server-side rendering or dynamic backends.
