ExpanDrive is a network filesystem client for MacOS, Microsoft Windows and Linux that facilitates mapping of local volume to many different types of cloud storage. When a server is mounted with ExpanDrive any program can read, write, and manage remote files (that is, files that only exist on the server) as if they were stored locally. This is different from most file transfer clients because it is integrated into all applications on the operating system. It also does not require a file to be downloaded to access portions of the content.
As of April 2025, ExpanDrive operates under a freemium model. The core application is free for personal use and for organizations with up to 10 users annually.
A paid subscription, priced at US$99/month, is required for commercial use, larger teams, and access to ExpanDrive for Teams and Server Edition, which includes technical support. Perpetual licenses are no longer offered; licenses sold prior to 2024 remain functional but are not supported under the new ownership.
ExpanDrive uses a custom FUSE implementation as its file system implementation layer on the Mac and Windows and system-packaged FUSE on Linux.
