   Provides the same functionality as an encrypted virtual disk, but allows you to quickly sync it to the cloud.

   Cryptomator is also safe, but not focused on encrypting whole drives. Its use case is encrypting folders into small parts, making Synchronisation easy. Veracrypt in a Cloudfolder would be horrible, as all the contents would be synced on a small change. On the other hand is Cryptomator probably not as secure as Veracrypt.

   Cryptomator is focused on encrypting files for cloud storage, and as such makes a minor compromise to security by not obscuring the individual file sizes within the vault. This is done so that the entire vault doesn't have to be resynced when one file is changed, a huge convenience with cloud storage. You absolutely can use it locally, but VeraCrypt offers more security with exclusively local vaults.
