What Aether actually does
Every download, in parallel
Aether splits files across multiple connections and reassembles them on the fly. Watch real throughput on the live flow meter while large files land in a fraction of the time.
- Multi-connection segmented downloading
- Live speed graphs and flow meter
- Pause, resume, and retry that actually work
Sweep a page clean
Open the harvester on any page and it finds every image, video, and audio stream — including HLS and DASH manifests — ready to grab in one pass.
- HLS/DASH stream capture
- Filter by type, size, and resolution
- On-device ffmpeg remux to MP4
Magnets and NZBs, handled
Paste a magnet link and Aether routes it through your debrid service; drop an NZB and it hands off to your Usenet client. Power-user plumbing, zero fuss.
- Real-Debrid, AllDebrid, Premiumize
- NZB hand-off to SABnzbd / NZBGet
- Vault with expiring link tracking
Downloads that sort themselves
Route files into folders by type, domain, or filename pattern. Set it up once and never drag a file out of ~/Downloads again.
- Rules by extension, domain, or regex
- Auto-rename templates
- Per-rule notification control
Your habits, your eyes only
Beautiful charts of what you download, from where, and how fast — computed entirely on your device. No telemetry, no cloud dashboard, no one else looking.
- Bandwidth and volume trends
- Top domains and file types
- 100% local computation

Asked, answered
It depends on the server, but multi-connection segmentation typically saturates your line where a single connection can't — 2–6× is common on throttled hosts.
