Tarlo review
A focused managed IPFS service for uploads, CID pinning, and private storage.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Tarlo is a managed decentralized storage service from Virtum for developers and creators who want to store content on IPFS without operating their own node. It supports file and folder uploads, pinning existing content identifiers by CID, public IPFS gateway access, and file and folder management tools. Two-factor authentication is available, and the service is delivered through the web with cloud deployment.
The plan structure is straightforward. Starter includes file and folder uploads, CID pinning, a public IPFS gateway, no bandwidth limits, and Google Sign-In. Pro includes everything in Starter and adds priority pinning, private storage on an isolated offline IPFS node, and priority support. The published plans also describe flat monthly pricing without bandwidth or per-request charges. Tarlo's support channel is email, making the service a fit for buyers who prefer a focused managed offering rather than a broad support program.
Tarlo's main strength is its narrow IPFS workflow: upload content, manage files and folders, or pin existing CIDs through a hosted service. Private storage and priority pinning give Pro users additional control over how content is handled. Its ecosystem fit is more limited, with Google Sign-In and Stripe listed as integrations and web access as the only platform. Buyers seeking managed IPFS storage with a simple feature set should consider Tarlo; teams needing wider platform coverage, a broader integration ecosystem, or more extensive storage-service capabilities should look elsewhere.
