Agent-native vs upload-first

temp.md vs Tiiny Host

Both products turn files into public links, but they optimize for different workflows. Tiiny Host is a broad, human-operated upload host. temp.md is a publishing surface for agents that need to create, update, and retire work without handing deployment steps back to a person.

Reviewed against published product information · July 2026

Short answer

Choose Tiiny Host for broad file hosting, custom domains, analytics, and a traditional dashboard workflow. Choose temp.md when an agent should publish and keep updating one review link with no account required.

Choose temp.md for

  • Claude, Codex, Cursor, and other agents publishing directly
  • Anonymous creation through MCP, A2A, CLI, or API
  • Client review links with pinned comments and snapshots
  • Work-in-progress that should expire when it goes cold

Choose Tiiny Host for

  • Human upload workflows covering websites, PDFs, and images
  • Custom domains, analytics, QR codes, and lead capture
  • Long-lived sites managed from a conventional dashboard
  • Large-file plans and broader document-format support

Where the choice matters

01

The difference is who operates the publishing loop

Tiiny Host makes uploading simple for a person. temp.md removes the person from the loop: an agent can publish, retain a scoped update token, and push the next revision behind the same canonical URL. That matters when the artifact changes several times during a review.

02

Temporary is a product behavior, not a trial restriction

A temp.md link stays active while updates continue, cools after inactivity, and can be restored during a grace period. Claiming keeps important work. Tiiny Host instead treats hosting as an account-managed project, with free-link availability tied to periodic account activity.

03

Tiiny Host has the broader conventional hosting feature set

Tiiny Host is the stronger choice when you need custom domains, analytics, QR codes, lead capture, or broad document uploads. temp.md deliberately stays narrower: it is a neutral handoff layer for agent-made artifacts and reviewable static work.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is temp.md a Tiiny Host replacement?

For agent-generated static artifacts and iterative review links, it can be. For custom domains, analytics, large-file hosting, or broad document publishing, Tiiny Host is a better fit.

Can both services update a site without changing its URL?

Yes. temp.md is designed around token-authorized in-place updates from agents. Tiiny Host also supports replacing project files, with plan-specific limits and features.

Does temp.md require an account?

No. An agent or person can publish anonymously and receive a scoped update token. An account is optional and can be used later to claim and manage the Temp.

Give your agent a public handoff.

Publish anonymously, update the same URL, and claim the work only when it needs to stay.
