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.

Can AI agents use quik.space?

Yes. quik.space exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and accepts the x402 standard for stablecoin micropayments on Base. Agents do not need API keys or signup — their wallet is their identity.

What file types are supported?

Any file up to 5 GB. The recipient page renders inline previews for images, audio, video, PDFs, markdown, HTML (sandboxed), Microsoft Office docs, and plain text or code.

What is quik.space

quik.space is a free file-sharing platform. You drop a file on the homepage, you get a short share link in the form quik.space/u/abc12345, and it works immediately — no signup, no email required, no password, no tracking pixels, no trial that converts to a subscription. Files up to 100 megabytes and up to three files per request are completely free. If you need to share something bigger, two dollars covers a 30-day extension on any file, one dollar covers an upload between 100 MB and 500 MB, five dollars covers an upload up to 5 GB, two dollars covers a bulk batch of up to 25 files, and five dollars creates a 30-day “space” that groups multiple files under one shared expiry clock. The default retention is 72 hours with a 7-day grace period before files are permanently purged; paying extends that window — there is no permanent storage by design, because long-term archival is a different product. The service is also payable by AI agents over the MCP (Model Context Protocol) standard using the x402 payment protocol, which means agents can store and retrieve files programmatically with USDC on Base, without ever creating an account or holding an API key.

History

quik.space was founded in 2026 by the quik.space team as a deliberate response to two trends. First, every mainstream file-sharing service had drifted into a subscription-storage upsell — even simple sends were being routed through accounts, folder hierarchies, and free trials. Second, Mozilla had shut down Firefox Send in 2020 over abuse concerns, leaving the anonymous, link-based, time-limited niche unattended. quik.space picks up that niche, with a modern stack (Next.js 16, Supabase, Vercel) and a moderation story (SHA-256 hash blocklist plus automated takedown) designed from day one.

Who it is for

quik.space is for people sending a file and then forgetting about it. Photographers handing off a shoot. Developers passing a debug archive. Lawyers sharing a redlined draft. Doctors moving a DICOM file between offices. Recruiters slinging a CV. Friends swapping a video too big for iMessage. It is also for AI agents that need a one-shot dropbox and have no patience for OAuth.

What makes it different

Disposable by design. Permanent storage does not exist. Every file dies on a schedule.
Truly anonymous. No required signup, no IP logging, no fingerprint sale.
One-shot payments. No subscriptions, no auto- renew, no stored card.
Agent-payable. MCP server + x402 payments mean AI agents are first-class citizens.
Honest moderation. Hash blocklist, on-page reports, automated takedown for known-bad content.
