Knox Storage review
A flexible IPFS service with pinning, CLI/API access, and static-site hosting.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Knox Storage is an IPFS pinning and storage service for individuals, developers, and businesses that need to keep files available on the IPFS network. It supports uploads and file management through IPFS Manager, CLI commands, and a remote pinning service API. Gateway access provides a way to reach stored files, and the service also supports static website hosting on IPFS. Its cloud and self-hosted deployment options make it relevant to users who want managed pinning as well as organizations considering their own deployment.
The plans differ primarily in storage, API keys, snapshots, and support. Welcome includes 5 GiB, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited pinned files, one API key, and basic customer support. Silver raises storage to 100 GiB and includes one snapshot; Gold offers 500 GiB, three API keys, two snapshots, and 24/7 customer support. Platinum provides 1 TiB, five API keys, three snapshots, and 24/7 white-glove customer support. Enterprise lists custom storage solutions, custom API integration, optional on-premise deployment, and a dedicated support team. The vendor says paid plans are billed yearly, with displayed amounts expressed per month.
The main appeal is the combination of pinning workflows, gateway access, CLI/API support, and static-site hosting rather than a narrow pinning-only service. Multiple snapshots and API key allowances vary by plan, so teams should compare those needs against their intended tier. Choose Knox Storage if you want those IPFS tools together or value a self-hosted option; consider another service if you need clearly specified limits for every plan or separately quantified gateway bandwidth. Support ranges from basic customer support to dedicated enterprise support, with email listed as a channel.
