Either I missed it, or am a little dim this monday morning but it took me reading the whole landing page to actually figure out what it did. A "torrent gofer".
I am confused at the value though except for the remote control aspect. I can torrent at speeds that saturate my ISP or I can download from put.io and saturate my channel, either way it amounts to the same time. And I have to pay for the intermediate storage? The one benefit I see is when a torrent is slow and the person wanting the file doesn't have a computer available to cover the download period, put.io act as a store and forward server. Possibly if the client->put.io is https then this solves a problem whereby ISP's track the port usage. I suppose torrent->https is an advantage for some.
