# rendrd — share an HTML file as a link

> Drop the HTML your AI built and get a live, shareable link in seconds. No account, no Git, no build. Free plan: 5 pages, 50MB, password protection.

## What it is
- Drop the HTML file your AI built (a report, dashboard, page, or AI artifact) and get a live https link anyone can open.
- No account, no Git, no build. Free to start, about 8 seconds to a live link.
- The recipient sees the live page, with your CSS, fonts and charts intact.

## How it works
1. Upload one self-contained .html file (up to 5 MB on the free plan), or have your AI publish it for you.
2. rendrd returns a shareable link that renders the live page.
3. Optionally set a password, see view counts, or take the link down at any time.

## Publish from your AI
- MCP server (Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Gemini CLI): publish HTML and get a link back. MCP URL: https://rendrd.io/mcp
- HTTP API: POST https://rendrd.io/api/publish with an Authorization header and a JSON body of {"html":"...","title":"..."}.

## Plans

- Pro (GBP 9/month): more storage, custom link names, no badge, links never expire (bounded by storage), custom domains.

## FAQ
### How do I turn an HTML file into a URL?
Drop the .html file onto rendrd and you get a live https link in seconds. There is no repo to create, no build step and no account to sign up for. Anyone you send the link to opens the page in their browser.

### How do I share an HTML webpage with someone?
Don’t email the .html file or put it in Drive, both open raw code or force a download. Upload it to rendrd instead and share the link it gives you. The recipient sees the live page, with your CSS, fonts and charts intact.

### How do I host a single HTML page for free?
rendrd’s free plan hosts up to 5 pages with 50MB of storage and no registration to get started. Each link renders the live page, supports password protection and shows you how many people viewed it. Free links stay live for 7 days.

### How is this different from GitHub Pages?
GitHub Pages needs a Git repository, a commit and a build before your page goes live, which is overkill for one self-contained file. rendrd takes the single HTML file and returns a working link straight away, with no Git and no build.

### How do I share an AI-generated page, like a Claude artifact?
Download the page your AI built as an .html file, then drop it into rendrd. You get a public link anyone can open, no GitHub and no account needed to start. It is built for exactly this: sharing what your AI made.

### Can my AI publish a page for me automatically?
Yes. rendrd runs an MCP server, so assistants like Claude and ChatGPT, and coding tools like Claude Code, can publish HTML and get a link back. You can also publish over plain HTTP from any language with our API.

### Do I need an account to share a page?
No. You can drop a file and get a link without signing up. Creating a free account simply lets you manage your pages, set passwords and see view counts in one dashboard.

### Can I password-protect or take down a shared link?
Yes. Password protection is included on every plan, so only people with the password can open the page. From the dashboard you can change the password or delete the link at any time, which removes the page immediately.
