Long Access offers very long-term, prepaid cloud infrastructure storage for enterprises and creators, including prepaid storage and access plans of up to 30 years. It has launched BigStash.co to serve amateur and professional content creators with archive-focused plans from 100GB to more than 5TB. BigStash makes stored data immutable and hard to alter, requires files to be requested hours in advance, and encrypts files client-side using AES256 with a randomly generated key that is never shared with the service. Pricing starts at $15/year for 100GB and the company is offering 5TB free for one year during beta; the average cost per GB is low because the company uses cold storage. The product positions itself against syncing services like Dropbox by emphasizing archival safety rather than availability or speed, and it competes with startups like SixSafe and Holdon.to as well as Sony's Archival Disk. Financially, Long Access previously raised €210,000 and has now secured an additional €300,000 seed round from Openfund. Longaccess provides prepaid, long-term cold storage aimed at preserving personal and business files for 30 years without requiring future migrations. Users upload archives that are encrypted client-side with AES-256 and a randomly generated key that is not shared with the service. After upload the app generates a printable Certificate (HTML/text) containing the archive ID and encryption key; the printed Certificate acts as a physical token for future access. The service positions itself as a safe-deposit-box alternative to everyday cloud services like Dropbox, for long-term preservation rather than daily use. Longaccess supports direct copying from Dropbox and emphasizes protection against media and technology obsolescence. The company has raised €210,000 in total, largely led by Greece-based Openfund. Longaccess is developing a service to preserve personal digital archives for the long-term future. It is building a secure, long-term personal solution to save users' digital archives composed of photos, videos, memories, thoughts, and achievements. The company was founded by Panayotis Vryonis and is based in Athens, Greece. Longaccess raised €110K in seed funding in a round led by Openfund II. The company plans to launch the service during Autumn.
