Why email fails with big files — and what to do instead

Gmail caps attachments at 25MB and Outlook at 20MB. A short phone video, an unzipped photo session, or a design archive blows past that in seconds. Compressing until it fits is the other option — and it's exactly why what you receive by email looks worse than it was.

With a link, nothing gets reduced: the file travels byte-for-byte, no recompression, up to 1GB per send.

What you can send with a link

Three steps, no account for anyone

Pick the file on the home page, choose how long the link lasts (1 hour, 12 hours, 24 hours, or one-time download), and share it into any chat. The recipient opens it in any browser — no sign-up, no app.

Sending several files? Use a folder link instead. A video? The video link plays it without downloading.
