- [HTML viewer · try without signing in](https://www.miinideck.com/try): Free online HTML viewer / preview / render tool — drop an HTML file or ZIP bundle, see it render in any browser. One-off anonymous upload; the link self-destructs after 7 days.

## Content

- [Blog](https://www.miinideck.com/blog): Long-form notes on private HTML delivery, AI artifact sharing, and the tooling around them.
- [Why the link your AI tool gave you won't open for the person you sent it to (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/why-your-ai-share-link-wont-open-for-them-2026): You built something in Lovable, v0, Bolt, or Gemini and sent the share link — and the reply was 'it asks me to log in' or 'it's blank.' Here's why AI-tool share links fail the recipient, tool by tool, and the link pattern that just opens.
- [Custom domain for private client links: setup walkthrough (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/custom-domain-private-client-links-setup-walkthrough-2026): Pointing a subdomain at a private-link host so the URL says your brand, not the vendor's. Steps, DNS gotchas, and when the apex vs subdomain choice matters.
- [Investor pitch decks as HTML links (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/investor-pitch-decks-as-html-links-2026): VC partners read the deck on a phone, forward it to two more partners, re-open it three weeks later. The container choice decides what that cycle feels like.
- [miinideck vs Netlify Drop: when each fits (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/miinideck-vs-netlify-drop-when-each-fits-2026): Two tools that both turn a dragged file into a URL. One is designed for public deploy testing; the other for private one-recipient delivery. When each fits, where the overlap is real.
- [miinideck vs Vercel Drop: when each fits (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/miinideck-vs-vercel-drop-when-each-fits-2026): Vercel Drop turns a dragged file into a live production URL on a major platform. miinideck turns one into a private link for specific people. Both fit 'drag a file, get a URL' — and were built for opposite jobs. When each fits, where the overlap is narrow.
- [Vercel Drop launched — and it means your work can be a link, not an attachment](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/vercel-drop-launch-deliver-your-work-as-a-link-2026): Vercel just shipped drag-a-file-get-a-link. With Netlify, tiiny, and others already here, sharing a built page as a live link is officially the new normal. Here's the whole landscape of tools — and how to pick one — if you're done emailing PDFs.
- [AI product landings: from prompt-built page to public URL (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/ai-product-landings-from-prompt-built-to-public-url-2026): An AI tool builds the landing in fifteen minutes; deciding where it lives takes the next hour. Three hosting shapes and how to pick between them.
- [Prompt patterns to ship portable, self-contained HTML from any AI tool (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/prompts-portable-self-contained-html-from-any-ai-tool-2026): AI tools default to modular HTML — clean for development, fragile for one-file delivery. Cross-tool prompt templates that produce a single portable file from the first generation.
- [When 7-day self-destruct is the wrong default (and when it's perfect)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/when-7-day-self-destruct-is-wrong-default-2026): A short-lived link reads as a feature for one-off reviews and a bug for permanent references. The shape of the engagement decides which one the file needs.
- [Animation prompts that level up Claude / Lovable / Cursor-built sites (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/animation-prompts-claude-lovable-cursor-built-sites-2026): AI-built pages default to clean, static, and slightly bland. Four animation patterns and the cross-tool prompt templates that bring them in — without dragging in a heavy library.
- [Making a Claude artifact self-contained: the export checklist (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/claude-artifact-self-contained-export-checklist-2026): A Claude artifact looks self-contained inside the chat and often isn't. The five things that quietly stay external — CDN scripts, Tailwind, fonts, images, fetch calls — and how to inline each.
- [Best free way to host a single HTML file (2026): every option compared](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/best-free-html-hosting-single-file-2026): Seven ways to put a single HTML file online for free — GitHub Pages, Netlify, Cloudflare, Vercel, Tiiny, Neocities, and a private-link option — with an honest table of which fits which job, public or private.
- [How many tokens does an image (or a PDF) cost an LLM? (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/how-many-tokens-image-pdf-llm-2026): There is no single number — it depends on the model, the image size, and whether you send a PDF as text or pixels. The per-model formulas, real measured costs, and how to count it for your own model.
- [Markdown vs HTML vs PDF: which format for what (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/markdown-vs-html-vs-pdf-which-format-for-what-2026): Three formats people reach for by habit, built for three different jobs. A job-by-job map of when Markdown, HTML, or PDF is the right shape — and why they work best as a pipeline, not a choice.
- [PDF vs Markdown for AI: which saves tokens, which reads cleaner (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/pdf-vs-markdown-for-ai-tokens-2026): Feeding a document to an AI? Markdown almost always costs fewer tokens and parses cleaner than the same content as a PDF. Where each format wins — and why the thing you hand a person at the end is neither.
- [Why HTML beats PDF for deliverables in 2026: interactivity, weight, and no stale copies in everyone's Downloads](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/why-html-beats-pdf-for-deliverables-2026): PDF is built for archive and print. HTML is built for live, browser-native delivery. Where the three differences — interactivity, weight, single source of truth — actually decide which format ships.
- [Freelancers: pricing proposals as HTML, not PDF (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/freelancers-send-html-pricing-proposals-not-pdf): A pricing proposal is read more like a website than a document. Channel options for sending one, and where private-link HTML sits between a PDF attachment and an esignature tool.
- [Designers: sending client previews without leaking Figma frames (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/designers-share-figma-client-preview-without-leaking-frames): Figma is designed for collaboration, so the share link shows comments, version history, and the frames you parked. Channel options for a client-facing preview, and where private-link hosting fits.
- [Why senior teams send HTML, not .pptx (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/senior-teams-send-html-not-pptx): The format you pick for an internal review is a category-signaling choice. When the team starts shipping HTML links instead of .pptx attachments, the room reads it before the content opens.
- [How to privately share a Claude or ChatGPT artifact with a client (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/share-claude-or-chatgpt-artifact-privately): Sending a Claude or ChatGPT artifact to one client — how the channels compare, where private-link hosting fits, and the six clicks that get you there.
- [A consultant's guide to sending interactive dashboards (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/consultants-guide-interactive-dashboards): Interactive dashboards lose their interactivity in PDF, screenshot, and screen recording.

Where private-link delivery sits, and when it's worth the swap.
- [miinideck vs tiiny.host: when each fits (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/miinideck-vs-tiiny-host-when-each-fits): Two tools that both host an HTML file, designed for different jobs. When tiiny.host fits, when miinideck fits, and where the choice actually matters.
- [Sharing an HTML report with a client: tools compared (2026)](https://www.miinideck.com/blog/share-html-report-with-client): How analysts, consultants, and agency teams hand a finished HTML report to one named client — what each channel is built for, and where private-link hosting fits.
