Linkyhost converts any PDF, DOCX, HTML, ZIP or image into a shareable link in seconds. Two million links and counting. display.dev does one of those formats properly. HTML and Markdown stay interactive pages, and the URL is gated by who you say rather than by who guessed it. [Try display.dev free →](https://app.display.dev) · [See pricing](/pricing) --- ## What Linkyhost does Drag in a file of almost any kind and get a link back. The size ceiling steps with the plan: 10 MB free, 100 MB on Pro, 500 MB on Enterprise. Its own counter reads just over two million links created by around 675,000 users. Breadth is the product. If you need one link that could be a contract, a slide deck or a photo, that breadth is the reason to use it. It also means HTML is one format among many rather than the thing the product is built around. Facts about Linkyhost are from `linkyhost.com`, captured 10 August 2026. --- ## display.dev vs. Linkyhost | | display.dev | Linkyhost | | -------------------------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------- | | HTML stays an interactive page | ✅ | ✅ | | Anonymous publish size ceiling | 50 MB | 10 MB free tier | | PDF, DOCX, images | ❌ | ✅ | | Publish with no account | ✅ | Sign-up to keep | | Publish from an agent | ✅ (CLI, API, MCP) | API on Enterprise | | Restrict to named email addresses | ✅ | ❌ | | Google + Microsoft SSO | ✅ (Pro) | ❌ | | Who viewed it | ✅ (by name, gated) | Visitor analytics | | Inline comments an agent can read back | ✅ | ❌ | | Update in place at the same URL | ✅ | Not verified | --- ## When Linkyhost is the right tool **Mixed formats.** A PDF today, a DOCX tomorrow, an image after that, all from one place. display.dev takes HTML and Markdown and nothing else. **Sending a document outward.** A file going to someone with no relationship to your company is a link problem, not an identity problem. **No budget.** Free and immediate is hard to argue with when the file is small and the audience is anyone. --- ## "Secure" usually means "hard to guess" A link nobody can guess is a reasonable default for a photo. It is a thin answer for an internal dashboard. - **Anyone with the URL is in** – Including whoever it was forwarded to, and whoever screenshotted it. - **Analytics, not identity** – Unique-visitor counts tell you how many, never which colleague. - **A document, not a page** – Formats like PDF and DOCX arrive as downloads; an interactive HTML report should stay a page. --- ## Who can open it **Anyone with the link.** An open URL, served with noindex, when the content is genuinely public. **Invited people.** Named email addresses only, each with a one-time password by email. Per person, and removable per person. **Everyone at your company.** On Pro, Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra ID decides who gets in. **And it stays a page.** Charts, filters and scripts keep working, because an HTML artifact is served rather than handed over. --- ## Pricing **Free** – €0. 10 gated artifacts, unlimited public links, one-time password auth, unlimited viewers. **Solo** – €15/mo. Unlimited gated artifacts, 1GB storage, version history. **Pro** – €49/mo. Google + Microsoft SSO, private artifacts, 25GB, audit logs, unlimited viewers. **Enterprise** – from €499/mo.

If your job is sending PDFs and Word documents, Linkyhost covers more ground than we do. **How big can a file be?** Anonymous publishing accepts up to 50 MB. Once the page belongs to an organization the per-artifact ceiling follows the plan: 10 MB on Free, 50 MB on Solo and above. See [pricing](/pricing) for the current limits. **Do I need an account?** Not to publish. You get a URL and a one-time claim link back; sign in only if you want to keep the page beyond 30 days. **Does my HTML stay interactive?** Yes. Charts, scripts and interactive elements all keep working, because it is served as a page rather than handed over as a download. **Can I see who opened it?** On gated artifacts, yes – viewers sign in, so there is a name attached to each view rather than a count.
