Download & Stream Torrents in the Cloud

A cloud torrent client that downloads torrents on Webtor's servers: paste a magnet link, stream while it downloads or save files over HTTPS. Your device never joins the swarm.

How it works

How the cloud torrent client works

Three steps, nothing to install — the heavy lifting happens on Webtor's servers, not on your device.

1

Paste a magnet link or .torrent

Drop the file or link on the home page. The cloud client picks it up and connects to the BitTorrent swarm within seconds.

2

The cloud does the downloading

Peers, trackers and uploads stay on our side. No client to configure, no port forwarding, and nothing torrent-related runs on your device.

3

Stream or save over HTTPS

Play video right in the browser while the torrent downloads, or save any file through a plain HTTPS link — like downloading from an ordinary website.

Explained

What is a cloud torrent client?

A cloud torrent client is a torrent program that runs on remote servers instead of your computer. You hand it a magnet link or .torrent file, it joins the swarm and downloads the content, then serves the files back to you over HTTP — so to your device and your network, torrenting looks like ordinary web traffic.

Webtor is a cloud torrent client wrapped in a player: it downloads in the cloud and streams video on the fly, converts audio, loads subtitles and hands out direct download links. Torrents you add are saved to a personal library, and paid plans add long-term Vault storage, S3 and WebDAV access to mount the library as a drive, and a REST API to script all of it.

Benefits

Why torrent in the cloud

Everything a desktop client does, minus the parts that make torrenting painful.

Your device never joins the swarm, and other peers never see your IP address
No software and no configuration — works in any browser on any OS
Downloads run on data-center bandwidth; you only fetch what you actually watch or save
Streaming starts in seconds, with subtitles and audio-track selection built in
Devices

One cloud library, every device

Whatever the cloud client downloads lands in your library — and the library follows you around.

Watch in the browser on desktop, phone or tablet, or on a TV through the Stremio addon
Mount the library as a network drive over WebDAV or S3 and browse it like local folders
Automate it with the REST API: add torrents, list files and get stream links from your own code
Pledge favourites to the Vault to keep them available long-term
Safety

Is a cloud torrent client safe?

Safer than torrenting locally: nothing gets installed, other peers see Webtor's servers instead of your IP address, and everything reaches you over HTTPS. Webtor only processes torrents you add yourself — it is a player and downloader for your own content, not a content catalog.

FAQ

Common questions

Quick answers to the things people ask most.

Is Webtor.io free to use?

Yes, Webtor.io is completely free for basic use. You can stream and download torrents without creating an account. Optional paid plans increase bandwidth and unlock Vault cloud storage.

Do I need a VPN to use Webtor.io? Will my ISP see what I download?

No VPN required. All traffic between you and Webtor.io travels over HTTPS. Your IP address is never exposed to the BitTorrent network because Webtor.io servers handle all peer communication. For your ISP, using Webtor.io looks no different from visiting any other website.

Can I use Webtor.io on a phone or tablet?

Yes. Webtor.io works in any modern mobile browser on iOS and Android. You can stream video, listen to audio, and download torrents without installing any additional apps.

What video and audio formats does Webtor.io support?

Webtor.io supports instant streaming for most popular formats. Video: AVI, MKV, MP4, WEBM, M4V, TS, VOB. Audio: MP3, WAV, OGG, FLAC, M4A. Files that require transcoding may take a moment longer to start playing.

Is Webtor.io an open-source project?

Yes, 100%. All components of Webtor.io are distributed under the MIT license. You can visit the GitHub repository to view the source code and contribute.

Can I watch my library on a smart TV?

Yes! With the Stremio integration you can stream your personal library on any smart TV or device running Stremio. Just install the addon using the link from your profile.

Can I use my own Jackett or Prowlarr with Webtor?

Yes. Add your indexer's Torznab feed URL in your profile and its results appear next to your Stremio addons — both on the Discover page and in the Webtor Stremio addon. Webtor doesn't search anything itself; it plays what your own indexer returns.

Can Webtor tell me when a new episode or release comes out?

Yes. Subscribe to an airing season or a movie — from the Discover page or a torrent page — and Webtor will poll your connected indexers and Stremio addons, then email you when a new release appears. It works like Sonarr or RSS automation, but with nothing to host.

How do I open a .torrent file in my browser?

Drag your .torrent file into the upload area at the top of this page, or paste a magnet link into the search field. Webtor opens it instantly — pick the video or audio file you want and stream it, or grab a direct download link. There's no torrent client to install and nothing to set up.

What can I use to open a torrent file?

You don't need to install anything — Webtor opens torrent files right in your browser on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS. Upload the .torrent file or paste a magnet link, then stream the video or save the files over a regular HTTPS download. Desktop clients like qBittorrent or uTorrent also work, but they require installation and connect your device to the torrent swarm.

How do I download files from a magnet link without a torrent client?

Paste the magnet link into the search field at the top of this page. Webtor acts as an online magnet link downloader: it runs the magnet download in the cloud and gives you a direct HTTP download link for each file, plus a built-in player to stream video and audio. Your browser never connects to the BitTorrent network — Webtor servers handle that.

How do I use a magnet link?

Paste the magnet link into the search field at the top of this page — Webtor opens it in seconds, with no client to install. You can also drag and drop a .torrent file instead. Webtor fetches the data on its own servers, so your browser never joins the BitTorrent swarm; you simply stream or download the files.

How do I download torrented files without a torrent client?

Paste a magnet link or upload a .torrent file at the top of this page. Webtor fetches the torrent on its servers and gives you a direct HTTPS download link for every file — nothing to install, and it works on any device. Your browser never joins the BitTorrent swarm, so no open ports or client setup are needed.

Read the step-by-step guide →
How do I unzip a torrent file?

A .torrent file is not an archive, so there is nothing to unzip — it's a small metadata file that only describes the real content. To get the actual files, open the .torrent with Webtor and download them one by one, or use the Torrent to ZIP tool to download everything as a single ZIP or TAR archive.

Read the step-by-step guide →
Do download links or streams expire?

Yes, for security reasons direct download links and streaming sessions are temporary and may expire after a short time. You can always refresh or regenerate them from your library interface.

Why do some downloaded ZIP archives show a CRC error?

ZIP archives are generated on-the-fly and don't include full checksum data, so some extraction tools may show a CRC warning even when the file is intact. That's why directory downloads now default to TAR — the TAR format has no per-file checksums, so even an interrupted and resumed download unpacks cleanly. If you prefer ZIP, pick it from the arrow menu next to the download button and use 7-Zip for best compatibility.

Why is my download or streaming speed slow on Webtor.io?

Speeds may vary due to the number of seeders, file format (some require real-time transcoding), your internet connection, current server load, and your account type. Premium users get higher bandwidth.

Note: bandwidth is measured in Mbps (megabits per second), while file sizes are shown in MB (megabytes). 1 MB = 8 Mb, so a 50 Mbps connection gives roughly 6.25 MB/s download speed. Supporting the project helps unlock better speed and reliability.

Torrent streaming vs direct download — what's the difference?

A direct download makes you wait for the whole file before you can watch it. Webtor streams the torrent instead: playback starts in seconds and nothing piles up on your device — and when you do want a local copy, you can still save the file as a regular download.
