We built Wistorix so you can take control of Google Drive on your own terms

Wistorix is a Chrome extension that helps individuals and businesses see Google Drive clearly: who holds access, which files take up space, and which files need a new owner when people change. Then fix it right there.

Reads metadata onlyName, size, owner and sharing settings. Never the contents of your files.

Our story

Wistorix was born from some painful lessons with Google Drive

My companies have had some painful experiences with Google Drive: days spent reviewing files and access after someone left; a whole project's documents lost because nobody knew the file owner was a former employee; the shock of finding confidential documents shared publicly without anyone noticing. And my personal Drive? I like to joke that it looked like a pigsty, it was that messy.

For most of us, Google Drive is a black box. Few people realize that:

The documents in your Drive are the digital assets of your business and of you. And like any asset, they deserve to be known, protected and managed well.

By digital assets we mean contracts, quotes, design files, customer data and project videos: the documents you keep in Drive and worked hard to create.

That is why we built Wistorix, around three core pillars: Cleanup (optimize storage), Security (secure your links) and Ownership (stay in control of who owns your data). So everyone can truly own their digital assets.

Turning Google Drive from a black box into a workspace you understand

Vision

To become a leading smart platform for managing and protecting data assets in the cloud, for individuals and businesses.

Mission

To turn Google Drive from a messy, risky black box into a safe, organized and transparent workspace, so every individual and business is fully in control of their own digital assets.

Operating principles

Full control, without trading off security

Four principles that let businesses review Google Drive at scale while keeping full control of their data.

01Minimum accessReads only administrative metadata through the Google Drive API: name, size, owner, sharing settings and modified date. Document contents stay out of scope.
02Managers keep the final sayEvery deletion, access revocation or ownership transfer runs only after confirmation. No change happens without your approval.
03Operational risk under controlDeleted files move to the Google Drive Trash and can be restored for 30 days. Revoked access can be granted again at any time.
04Deploy without waiting on ITWorks right away with personal Gmail and Google Workspace, with no admin rights and no IT approval required.
