Yes. Up to 100 MB per file and up to 3 files per request are free. Files expire in 72 hours unless you pay $2 to extend by 30 days, or pay to group them into a 30-day space for $5.

Do I need to sign up?

No. Anonymous use is the default. You can optionally attach your email so you can recover files later if you lose the share link.

How long do files last?

Free files expire in 72 hours. After that there is a 7-day grace period during which a $2 extend will bring the file back for 30 more days. After the grace period the storage is permanently purged.

Can AI agents use quik.space?

Yes. quik.space exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and accepts the x402 standard for stablecoin micropayments on Base. Agents do not need API keys or signup — their wallet is their identity.

What file types are supported?

Any file up to 5 GB. The recipient page renders inline previews for images, audio, video, PDFs, markdown, HTML (sandboxed), Microsoft Office docs, and plain text or code.

Is the ISO checksum preserved?

Yes. The bytes are unchanged, so SHA-256 and MD5 match the original.

Can the recipient mount the ISO directly?

Yes. macOS, Windows, and most Linux distros mount ISOs natively from the file manager.

What is the size cap on quik.space?

5 GB hard ceiling. Most distro ISOs fit. Windows Server ISOs may exceed.

Will my ISO boot from a USB after download?

Yes. The byte-for-byte preservation means tools like Rufus or balenaEtcher write a fully bootable USB.

How to send an ISO file.

ISO images are disk snapshots. A Linux distro is a few gigs; a Windows installer is more. quik.space takes the ISO byte-for-byte, checksum intact. The recipient mounts, burns, or boots it without surprises.

What is a ISO disk image?

ISO disk image files use the .iso extension and the application/x-iso9660-image MIME type. The format sits in the dev category. Typical files run 500 MB - 5 GB, which is well above what most email services will accept as an attachment.

Why you can’t email a ISO disk image

An ISO is a disk image. A Linux distro is typically 1 to 4 GB. A Windows installer ISO is 4 to 6 GB. Email is hopeless.Slack, Discord, and most other workplace tools have similar caps, often around 1 GB for free tiers and with aggressive per-channel storage limits. Even when the file fits, it counts against the recipient’s mailbox quota forever.

How quik.space handles ISO disk image

quik.space stores the ISO byte-for-byte. The recipient mounts it, burns it, or uses it as a virtual machine disk image. The share page does not preview archives or installers. The recipient downloads the file with one click.

The file lives for 72 hours by default and then enters a 7-day grace period. We do not train AI on your files. We do not share them with third parties. After grace, the bytes are permanently purged from storage. Read the full policy on privacy.
