drophost
Share a text file on drophost
- txt, rtf, csv
- Works on mobile browsers
- No account required to open
How to do it
1. Upload the text
Drop a .txt, .rtf, or .csv file.
2. Send the URL
Recipients open or download the file from a browser. No Drive ACL.
3. Swap drafts
Replace the text file as notes change. Keep the same link.
Good fit for
Meeting transcripts, changelog dumps, CSV exports, support logs, and anything that starts life as a text file. Paste the drophost URL into Slack or a ticket instead of attaching another blob that bounces on size limits.
Pair with PDF projects
Keep drafts as text while you iterate on Free. When the leave-behind needs a polished PDF, upload it on Starter or Pro to the same kind of durable URL—optionally passworded—while recipients still need no drophost signup.
Replace and stay private
Re-upload when the export regenerates so CRM and ticket fields keep resolving. Add a password on Starter (€5/mo or €50/yr) or Pro (€12/mo or €120/yr) for internal dumps. Links remain until you delete the project.
Common questions
Can I share a text or CSV file with a link?
Yes. drophost accepts .txt, .rtf, and .csv files on every plan. Markdown has its own sharing page.
Do people need an account to open a text file?
No. Recipients open the drophost URL in a browser.
Should I use drophost for large data dumps?
Use drophost for small exports and notes. Free projects are capped at 2 MB. Larger files need Starter or Pro.
