You hold the reels
Your media lives on your server, on your disks. Rilo scans, matches, and organizes it — but the files never leave your control, and the cloud never sees inside your library.
Self-hosted media platform
Your films.
Your server.
Everywhere.
Rilo is the media platform you own end to end. Run the server on your own hardware, and reach your library from any screen over secure connections you control — no subscriptions on your own films, no lock-in, no one else in the middle.
Free while in development · A sample library is built in
◇
Reachable anywhere
A cloud broker connects your devices to your server — on the couch or across the world — with valid TLS on every connection and a relay fallback when your network fights back. Direct when it can, tunneled when it must.
▤
Plays on every screen
A transcode engine meets each device where it is — direct play when the file just works, adaptive streaming when it doesn't. One library, every phone, TV, and browser.

The app comes loaded with open-licensed films from the Blender Foundation — browse, resume, switch quality, turn on subtitles. Every screen is real; only the library is a stand-in until your server arrives.
