# htmlkin.io

> A service for publishing HTML pages and static sites: upload a file or paste your code — get a public link like https://mypage.htmlkin.io in 10 seconds. No account and no hosting. AI assistants (Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients) publish sites on their own — through the MCP server https://htmlkin.io/mcp or the REST API.

Key facts:

- Anonymously, without an account: 1 site up to 20 MB, the link lives for 24 hours.
- After a free sign-up a site lives as long as people visit it: 30 days without visits move it to the archive, and it can be restored from the dashboard within another 30 days.
- Formats: a single HTML file, a static site (folder or ZIP; the entry page is index.html in the root, otherwise the first HTML file in the root).
- Every site lives on its own {name}.htmlkin.io subdomain over HTTPS; a custom domain can be connected on any plan, including the free one — one DNS record, the SSL certificate is issued automatically.
- The REST API and the MCP server are available on every plan, including Free: all you need is an account.
