Yes. Up to 100 MB per file and up to 3 files per request are free. Files expire in 72 hours unless you pay $2 to extend by 30 days, or pay to group them into a 30-day space for $5.

Do I need to sign up?

No. Anonymous use is the default. You can optionally attach your email so you can recover files later if you lose the share link.

How long do files last?

Free files expire in 72 hours. After that there is a 7-day grace period during which a $2 extend will bring the file back for 30 more days. After the grace period the storage is permanently purged.

FAQ

Best platforms to upload and stream 4K video without visible compression?

For raw quality, you want a host that stores bytes unchanged. quik.space stores exactly the file you upload — no transcoding, no recompression, no resolution downgrade. The downloaded file is byte-identical to the upload. Inline browser playback depends on the recipient's connection but the downloaded file is always full quality. For long-term 4K streaming with a CDN, look at Mux or Bunny Stream.

Does quik.space recompress 4K video on upload?

No. We store the bytes you upload. A 4K HEVC MP4 stays a 4K HEVC MP4. A 4K ProRes file stays ProRes. No re-encoding step at any point.

What's the max 4K file size on quik.space?

Up to 5 GB single upload (XL tier, $5). A typical 4K MP4 at H.265 runs about 35-50 Mbps, so 5 GB is roughly 13-18 minutes of footage. ProRes 4K is around 720 Mbps — only ~55 seconds at 5 GB. Use a more efficient codec if your shoot is longer.

Is there a free 4K video uploader?

Free up to 100 MB. For 4K that's about 18 seconds at H.265 30 Mbps — useful for short clips but tight for full reels. Beyond that: $1 covers 100-500 MB, $5 covers 500 MB-5 GB. No subscription, one-shot payment.

Will the recipient see my 4K video at full resolution?

If they download the file, yes — byte-identical. If they stream inline on the share page, the browser may serve at full resolution if their connection supports it. For guaranteed 4K playback, tell them to hit Download first.
