THE FILE PULSE

Your files can
call for help.

TripWyre notices when something unusual is
happening around your files—and tells you
while it is happening.

It watches the activity.
Never the contents.

Google Drive. No software to install.

Everything was normal.
Until it wasn’t.

One document opened. Three photos shared.
A folder updated. Normal.

Then hundreds of files begin downloading
at once. TripWyre notices the change and
sends a clear alert to your phone while
it is happening.

It learns your normal.

TripWyre quietly learns your usual rhythm—when files move,
how quickly and in what patterns. When that rhythm suddenly breaks, TripWyre notices.

Mass download

Hundreds or thousands of files
downloaded in a short time.

Burst of changes

A sudden spike in edits, moves
or new file activity.

Unexpected access

New or unfamiliar access to
your important files.

Sees the movement.
Not the memories.

TripWyre watches activity around your files.
It never opens your documents. It never reads
your words. It never looks at your photos.

Never reads
file contents
No selling
your data
No AI training
on your files

Silent is the feature.

Most days, TripWyre says nothing.
No noisy dashboard. No technical clutter.
No stream of meaningless alarms.
Just one clear message when something
genuinely doesn’t fit.

Questions people actually ask.

No jargon. Straight answers.

How does TripWyre watch my files?

It doesn’t watch your files. It watches the activity list.

Google Drive already keeps a running record of what happens to your files — opened, edited, shared, downloaded, and by whom. TripWyre reads only that record. Think of a security guard in the lobby: they see who came in, when, and how much they carried out. They never open the envelopes.

So can you read my documents and photos?

No — and not just as a promise. When you sign in, Google asks you to grant exactly two permissions, both read-only: see your file names, and see your activity list.

Permission to open a file is never requested and never granted. It isn’t that we choose not to look inside your files. We can’t.

What actually sets off an alert?

Three patterns that almost never happen by accident:

  • A sudden grab. Ten or more different files touched inside a minute — the signature of someone sweeping up everything at once.
  • A burst. An hour with roughly three times your usual amount of file activity.
  • A stranger. Activity from a person or a place that has never touched your files before.
How does it know what’s normal for me?

The moment you connect, TripWyre looks back over your last seven days of activity and works out your usual rhythm — how much happens in a typical hour and who normally touches your files.

That becomes your baseline. There’s no waiting period: you’re protected from the first minute.

What happens when something looks wrong?

A text message lands on your phone within seconds, in plain English, saying what it saw. Not an email you’ll find tomorrow — a text, while it is still happening.

Will it pester me with false alarms?

It’s built to stay quiet. The alarm is measured against your normal rhythm, not a generic rule, and it won’t repeat the same warning over and over.

Most days TripWyre says nothing at all. That’s the point — when it does speak, you look.

Can TripWyre stop the person taking my files?

Not today — and we’d rather say so plainly. TripWyre is a smoke alarm, not a fire door.

What it gives you is the thing people normally lack: knowing while it happens, instead of finding out weeks later. That’s the window in which you can change your password, remove a shared link, or make a call.

Do I need to install anything?

Nothing. There’s no app and no download. You sign in to Google in your browser, choose a folder, and close the tab.

Because TripWyre watches from Google’s side, it keeps working whether you’re on a Mac, a PC or your phone — even when everything is switched off.

What does it cost, and can I stop?

One folder is free. Everything you have is A$9.95 a month. Cancel any time, in a click — no phone call, no notice period.

What if I don’t use Google Drive?

Right now TripWyre watches Google Drive. Dropbox and OneDrive are next on the list.

Still wondering something? Email max@mail.ricricho.com and a human will answer.

Your files have a
warning system now.

TripWyre watches the movement. You keep the privacy.
