What you can build with Foxel
Foxel is an open-source private cloud storage platform that unifies files across local disks, S3, WebDAV, SFTP, FTP, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, and other backends behind a single web interface. Its standout feature is AI-powered semantic search, which lets you find photos, videos, and documents by natural language descriptions rather than filenames.
Self-hosting Foxel keeps your personal media library, work archives, and shared team files on infrastructure you fully control — no per-seat fees, no proprietary lock-in, and no third party scanning your data to build embeddings. Role-based access control, signed share links, and protocol mappings via S3 API and WebDAV make it suitable for both individuals and small teams.
Key features of Foxel
Semantic AI search
Find photos and documents by describing them in plain language using configurable embedding models and Milvus or Qdrant vector databases.
Unified storage backends
Connect local disks, S3, WebDAV, SFTP, FTP, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, and more behind one browsing interface with pluggable adapters.
Role-based access control
Define custom roles with path-based read, write, delete, and share permissions using wildcards, regex, and priority-ordered rules.
Built-in file preview
Stream images, videos, PDFs, Office documents, text, and source code directly in the browser without downloading the original file.
Protocol mappings
Expose your storage through S3-compatible endpoints, WebDAV mounts, and signed direct links for scripts, apps, and OS file managers.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
