Share large files
Send files with a link that doesn’t expire.
Most ways to send a big batch of files put it on a timer: transfer links expire after days, and the recipient who waits too long gets a dead link and an awkward follow-up email. Nippy takes the opposite approach — your files become a page that stays up. Drop them onto nippy.host, pick an address like project-files.nippy.site, and recipients open a tidy download page in any browser: no account, no app, no countdown. The same link can be updated later — add files, replace versions — and everyone who already has the address sees the current set. Photos in the upload appear as a browsable gallery; everything else gets a clean file listing with downloads a click away. The honest trade-off is size: a free account covers one site and 25 MB, so a multi-gigabyte one-off handoff still belongs on a transfer service, while paid plans add the room that working sets of documents, designs and media actually need. If a link has to outlive the week it was sent, a page beats a parcel.

Drop the files in
Documents, designs, archives, photos — drag the lot onto nippy.host. Photos become a gallery; the rest gets a tidy download listing.

Pick a lasting address
Something like project-files.nippy.site that you would be happy to see quoted back in an email thread months from now.

Send it once
Recipients click and download — no account, no expiry countdown. Update the files later and the same link serves the new set.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
Does the link ever expire?
No. There is no expiry timer — the page stays online until you pause or delete it. That is the core difference from transfer services.
How large can the files be?
The free plan covers one site and 25 MB in total, which suits documents and working sets. Paid plans add much more room; a single multi-gigabyte video dump is still better suited to a transfer service.
Do recipients need an account?
No — the page opens in any browser, and every file is a direct download. Nothing to install, nothing to join.
Can I replace a file after sending the link?
Yes — that is the point of sharing a page instead of a parcel. Replace or add files and publish; the address everyone already has now serves the current versions.
Can I make the page private?
Paid plans add password protection, so the download page is only readable by people you have given the password to.
