What does URL Anything actually do?
It assigns a public internet link to a thing you already have — an image, PDF, spreadsheet, HTML page, JSON file, note, audio clip, video, zip, snippet, or destination — so you can share that exact thing with the world over HTTPS.
Do recipients need an account to open the URL?
No. Once you assign a public internet link, anyone with the address can open it in a browser.
How long does a public internet link last?
Every new URL is live for 24 hours — enough for a same-day share, a meeting, or a handoff. A paid Keep option is coming so the name you already printed or encoded can stay on the internet.
Can I pay to keep a URL?
Soon. Keep will pin the slug you already chose — and the QR that points at it — so it still opens next month. Join the list on the Keep page; people who have already named something go first.
What is AnythingURL.com versus URLAnything.com?
You upload and name things on URLAnything.com. The finished public internet link is served on AnythingURL.com.
Can I choose the words in the URL?
Yes, if that name is still free. Every URL is unique. If the name is taken, URL Anything assigns a random adjective-noun-number combo such as quiet-harbor-4821. Shuffle the box to draw another one.
Is a public internet link the same as submitting my file to Google?
No. Public means the URL resolves for anyone who has it. We do not put your upload on a public gallery. Search engines may still discover a URL you post elsewhere.
