drophost is live
/drophost
drophost is a simple way to share a file online with a live link. You sign in, drop the file or a static site, and copy the URL. The person on the other end opens it in their browser. They do not need a drophost account, and they do not need to install anything.
Today we opened drophost. A file, a site, a link that opens.
Why sending a file still feels like a project
Most of us have lived this loop.
You send a file. The other person cannot open it until they make an account. Or they ask for access. Or they land in a folder of other files they were never meant to see. Sometimes the link works for a few days and then it is gone, so you send the same thing again.
We wanted a quieter version of that. Something you can paste into an email, a chat, or a text, and trust that it will still be there tomorrow.
What is drophost?
drophost is a live URL for one finished file or a static site.
You drop a Word document, image, text file, PDF, or a zip with index.html, and you get a page that opens in any browser. If you update it later, the same link still works. That is useful when a proposal gets a last-minute change, or a preview site needs a cleaner build.
You can share:
- HTML pages and static-site zips
- Word documents
- Images
- Text files
- PDFs up to 0.5 MB on Free; larger PDFs on paid plans
To host HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, drop a site zip.
Links stay up until you take the project down. Recipients just open the page. It is not a drive, and it is not a one-off transfer that disappears. It is the link you send when the file is ready.
Who drophost is for
If you send files to clients, classmates, teammates, or friends, this is for you.
It is a good fit when you need someone to look at one finished thing: a mockup, a brief, a paper, a photo, a proposal, or a small HTML site. Designers, freelancers, students, and others already have pages that spell out the usual jobs.
How to share a file with drophost
- Go to drophost.space.
- Drop a Word document, image, text file, PDF, or a site zip.
- Copy the live link and send it.
The free plan is enough to see if this matches how you work. If you later want passwords, more files, or your own domain, paid plans are there.
Thanks for reading. We hope the next file you send is a little easier.
Frequently asked questions
Do recipients need a drophost account?
No. Anyone with the link opens the file in their browser. They do not need to sign up or install an app. Add a password on Starter or Pro if the file should stay private.
What files can I share with drophost?
HTML pages, static-site zips, Word documents, images, text files, and CSV on every plan. Free includes PDFs up to 0.5 MB. Larger PDFs are on Starter and Pro.
Does a drophost link expire?
No. The URL stays live until you delete the project. If you replace the file, recipients keep the same link.
Is drophost free?
Yes. The free plan is enough to share a file or a small HTML site and see if it matches how you work. Paid plans add larger PDFs, passwords, more storage, and a custom domain.
