What is AnyToURL?
AnyToURL is a file-sharing and link-creation service. You upload a file, create a text paste, or shorten a long URL, and AnyToURL gives you a shareable link that works on any device with a browser.
We built AnyToURL for a simple case that most chat and email tools still do badly: sending something that is bigger than an attachment limit, or that the recipient should not have to download software to open.
How it works
- Upload a file — images, PDFs, videos, audio, archives, and code files are stored and served through a global edge network.
- Create a text paste — long text becomes a browser-accessible link.
- Shorten a URL — a long HTTP or HTTPS URL becomes a short link that is easy to share.
Creating a link requires an account. Generated links, the landing page, pricing, docs, and legal pages stay accessible without signing in when their access rules allow it.
Plans
AnyToURL offers a free plan and paid plans. The main differences are file size limits, storage duration, and API access:
- Free — create links, files expire after 24 hours.
- Pro and Ultra — larger files, permanent storage, custom short links, and API access.
API and CLI
AnyToURL ships a public API with a command-line client. After signing up, create an API key under Settings → API Keys to upload and shorten links from scripts or CI:
