Can I host a Claude artifact without a Claude subscription?

Yes. Once you've downloaded the file it's an ordinary HTML file — it has no connection back to Claude, and it keeps working whatever happens to your account.

Will interactive artifacts still work?

Yes. Buttons, forms, charts, state, animation — anything that runs in a browser runs here, because the file is served exactly as you uploaded it.

Do people need a Claude account to view it?

No. That's the main reason to do this. The link opens for anyone, on any device, with nothing to sign into.

What about React artifacts?

Claude bundles React artifacts into a runnable HTML file when you download them, so they publish the same way as any other artifact.

Can I update it after sharing the link?

Yes. Ask Claude for a change, download the new version, and publish it to the same address. The link stays the same and previous versions are kept, so you can roll back.

Yes, hosting is free. You create an account at the moment you publish, which is what keeps the service free of anonymous abuse.

Host your Claude artifacts at your own address

Claude builds you a working page in the side panel. Publish it to a real URL you can send to anyone — no account needed on their end, no chat to share.

You can host:

Drop your Claude artifact here

Any other file works too — up to 25.0 MB, or 100.0 MB for a whole site

Free to use, live at your-name.99helpers.site in about ten seconds.

Why the artifact has nowhere to go

Claude's artifacts are genuinely useful things: a calculator, a dashboard, a one-page site, a document that formats itself. The awkward part comes after. The artifact lives in a conversation, and sharing the conversation means handing someone your whole exchange — or asking them to sign in before they can look at what you made.

What Claude gives you

A single self-contained HTML file, downloadable from the artifact panel
React components that Claude has already bundled into a runnable page
Markdown documents, SVG diagrams and Mermaid charts you can export as files

The link points at a conversation

Sharing an artifact shares the chat around it — your prompts, your false starts, the version you rejected. Often that's fine. Often it really isn't.

Viewers need an account

A shared artifact asks the recipient to sign in. For a client, a teacher or your dad, that's where the thing you made stops being seen.

It's tied to your chat history

Artifacts live where the conversation lives. Clear it, lose it, or hit a limit, and the thing you built goes with it.

Putting Claude output online

1
Download the artifact
In the artifact panel, use the download button to save the file. An interactive artifact comes down as a single .html file with everything inside it — no build step, no dependencies to install.
2
Drop it here and pick an address
Drag the file into the box above and choose a name. Something short and descriptive works best — the address is the thing you'll be reading out loud.
3
Send the link
It's live immediately at your own address. Anyone can open it in any browser, with no account, no sign-in and no Claude subscription.

Worth knowing

Claude artifacts are self-contained by design, so a single .html file is usually all you need — no folder, no zip.
If your artifact fetches data from an API, check the API allows requests from a browser on a different domain before you publish.
Ask Claude to add a <title> before you download it — that's what shows in the browser tab and in link previews.
Publishing again with the same address replaces the page and keeps the link working, so you can iterate after sharing.
For something you only want a few people to see, add a password when you publish.
