Doesn't magic wormhole do that? I remember there used to be a few websites providing a web interface for it, but I can't seem to find them anymore.

Yup there's at least a few projects that can do in browser file transfer using WebRTC e.g.

https://sendfiles.dev/

https://sharedrop.io/

https://github.com/kern/filepizza

And of course https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole (they used to have a website too but maybe that went away?)

This is exactly what I was talking about, thanks!

Yes, there are relays to connect the clients together and then the transfer is direct.

Several years ago when I was doing consulting I had lots of clients that blocked all the normal file sharing domains to prevent people from getting files into servers but magic wormhole always worked for me. I'd stash a wormhole-william (magic wormhole compatible Go application) executable in our installer deliverable and then I could update the software without IT's help in the future (I often had RDP access). The headaches saved by cutting red tape were worth the risk for me.
