Air Live Drive
Spain
What it is
Air Live Drive mounts cloud storage as local drives on Windows and macOS. Files can be opened, edited, and saved through Explorer or Finder without synchronizing entire folders. It connects to personal, business, and infrastructure services including Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, iCloud, SharePoint Online, S3, FTP, FTPS, SFTP, and WebDAV. Optional caching can speed repeated access, while files stream from the cloud instead of duplicating gigabytes locally. Windows users can enable background uploads and view progress in a transfer list. Supported cloud audio and video may play without a full local copy, depending on the provider. Pro adds startup and administrator passwords, drive export and import, and unlimited drives; Windows Pro also offers command-line mount, unmount, refresh, and cache commands. The free Basic plan allows one drive per provider and three drives total. The 1 Year plan costs $17 a year, while Pro Lifetime costs $25 once.

The verdict
