Drop your file here

Anyone with the link · images, audio, video, docs, text & data, or .zip

By uploading, you agree to our Terms and Data Processing Terms and confirm you have the right to share this content.

How it works

  1. Drop the video

    Drag your MP4, WebM, or MOV onto the box above, or browse to pick it. No sign-up required.

  2. We turn it into a link

    Your video is validated, stored, and published at its own short URL, with a QR code you can show on screen.

  3. Send the link, not the file

    Paste the URL into any text, chat, or email. It plays in the recipient’s browser, no app, no download.

Why a link beats sending the file

Frequently asked questions

Does the video play in the browser?
Yes. MP4, WebM, and MOV open in the browser’s built-in player on phones, tablets, and computers. The recipient just taps the link and watches, no app to install.
How big a video can I share?
Up to 30 MB with no account, or up to 50 MB on the free plan. A paid plan raises that all the way to 1 GB. You send a link, not an attachment, so the 25 MB email cap and SMS/iMessage size limits never apply.
Do I need an account?
No. You can drop a video and get a link without signing up. Signing in free raises the limit to 50 MB and keeps your links live longer.
How long does the link stay live?
Anonymous links last 48 hours. Sign in free and your links stay live for 30 days. When a link expires it simply stops resolving, no crippled preview mode.
Do I have to compress or convert it?
No. We host the original file as-is, so quality stays intact, no re-encoding it down to fit an email or message. Very large clips (MKV and AVI included) can still be shared as a download link.
