About Transmit
Transmit is a file transfer app for the Mac from Panic. It connects to FTP and SFTP servers, WebDAV, Amazon S3 and a range of cloud storage services, and lets you browse and move files between local folders and remote storage.
The download is the full application and runs for seven days as a trial; after that a one-time unlock code is needed. The current version, Transmit 5, requires macOS 13 or later. Volume and site licenses are available for teams.
