here.now turns files, sites, apps and documents into live URLs at {slug}.here.now, with anonymous 24-hour temporary sites, a free tier (10GB, 500 sites) and paid tiers from $4/month. Pick it when an agent or a quick project needs a shareable URL without setting up real hosting; move to a proper host once the project is meant to last.
Other good fits
An AI agent workflow that needs to publish its output somewhere reachable, with version history and access control.
+ Pros
Read pros
here.now takes files, folders, static websites, apps, reports, dashboards and documents, and publishes them instantly to a live URL at {slug}.here.now. It's built with AI agents in mind: an agent can publish its own output to a real, shareable link without needing separate hosting setup, with version history, rollback and access control (public, password-protected, invite-only or owner-only) included.
Pick it when…
You (or an agent workflow) need a quick, shareable URL for a file, report or small site without setting up real hosting.
You want built-in version history and rollback for something you're iterating on.
You want access control options (password, invite-only) on a quickly published site without building that yourself.
− Cons
Read cons
Anonymous sites expire after 24 hours by design, so it's not a way to get a free, permanent link without an account. This is built for quick, agent-friendly publishing, not as a substitute for a full production hosting platform with the reliability guarantees a real product needs.
Pick something else when…
You need a permanent, branded production site with strong reliability guarantees. A dedicated hosting platform or Dokploy on your own server is a better long-term home.
You want to self-host static sites on infrastructure you control.Caddy in front of a simple file server gives you that directly.
The content needs to live inside a broader application, not a standalone published site. Build it into that application's own hosting instead.
Avoid if
You need an account-free permanent link; anonymous sites expire after 24 hours by design.
Workflow
Publish without an account for a temporary, anonymous site (expires after 24 hours, 250MB limit, 60 publishes/hour per IP) → create a free account for permanent sites with higher limits → set access control appropriate to the content (public, password-protected, invite-only) → use version history to roll back if a published update breaks something → move to a custom domain on a paid tier if the site needs to look more permanent.
There's nothing to install; the running effort is keeping published content organised and checking access-control settings, especially on anything containing more than throwaway test data.
Restrictions
Anonymous publishing is capped at 250MB per site and 60 publishes per hour per IP, with a hard 24-hour expiry. Custom domains and higher storage/site limits require a paid tier.
First project
Documentation-based suggestion — not run here.
Publish a small made-up report or dashboard as a static site, first anonymously to see the temporary link work, then under a free account to make it permanent. Test the password-protection option on a second publish to confirm access control behaves as expected.
Done when you've published both an anonymous (temporary) and an account-owned (permanent) site, and confirmed the access control setting you chose actually restricts access as intended.
