You have an HTML file from an AI tool or a code editor and you want to send it as a link. Here is the fastest way to turn it into a real, shareable URL.

You just generated a slick HTML page in Claude, ChatGPT, or your editor, and now you want to send it to someone. Email won't render it. A screenshot loses the interactivity. Spinning up hosting is overkill for one file. Here is the simplest way to turn an HTML file into a real link in under a minute.

The problem with sharing raw HTML #

An .html

file is self-contained, but it only comes alive in a browser. When you attach it to a message, most apps either strip it, show the raw code, or download it as a file the recipient has to open manually. What you actually want is a URL: something you paste into Slack, a doc, or a text, that opens the live page on any device.

ShareMyPage is built for exactly this. You paste your HTML, and you get a public URL that renders the page instantly. No build step, no server, no config.

  • Open ShareMyPage and create a new page.
  • Paste your full HTML (everything from <!doctype html>

down works, and so does a fragment). - Choose who can see it: public, password protected, or limited to your workspace.

  • Copy the link and share it.

That is the whole flow. The page is live at a clean URL, it renders in a sandboxed frame so it is safe to open, and you can update the content later without changing the link.

Choosing who can see it #

Not every page should be public. ShareMyPage gives you a few visibility options so the same paste-and-share flow works whether you are publishing to the world or sending a draft to one client:

Public: anyone with the link can view it.** Password protected**: viewers enter a password first.** Workspace**: only members of your workspace can open it.

A link works on phones, it previews nicely when shared, and it stays in one place so everyone sees the latest version. A file gets copied, renamed, and lost. If you share AI-generated pages often, a link is the format that keeps up with you. (Weighing your options? See link vs. file vs. screenshot.)
