Box holds the encryption keys. Their employees can access your files. Law enforcement can request them. TinyX encrypts files in your browser — the key derives from your password and never leaves your device.
Box Business requires 3 users even if you're a solo freelancer. TinyX Pro is $9/month for one person. Cancel anytime. No sales contract. No implementation consultant.
Box doesn't have URL shortening. You'll need another tool for that. TinyX generates a short, trackable link for every file — click data, country, device, referrer, all logged.
Files that auto-purge on expiry. Links that disappear after N downloads. Content that vanishes when you're done with it. Box files stay until someone manually deletes them.
The verdict: If you're in healthcare, government contracting, or legal — Box earns its price for compliance reasons. For everyone else paying per-user minimums to securely share files and track who opened them: TinyX.
