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.

Should I zip the .key file?

Yes, especially if sharing with a non-Mac recipient. .key is a bundle on macOS; zipping preserves the structure across filesystems.

Can a Windows user open the file?

Keynote is Mac-only. Export to PPTX or PDF for cross-platform sharing.

Will transitions and Magic Move survive?

Yes. The .key bundle contents are byte-identical.

What about embedded video files?

Embedded video stays inside the bundle. The size adds up; pay $5 for files up to 5 GB.

How to send a Keynote file.

Keynote files are macOS bundles, so they cannot travel as a single attachment without zipping. quik.space takes the zipped Keynote byte-for-byte and gives the recipient a Mac-ready download link.

No email means no recovery. If you lose this link, we can't get you back to this file.

What is a Keynote presentation?

Keynote presentation files use the .key extension with no single standard MIME type. The format sits in the document category. Typical files run 20 MB - 1 GB, which is well above what most email services will accept as an attachment.

Why you can’t email a Keynote presentation

Keynote files are macOS bundles. Email cannot handle the bundle structure, and embedded media often runs hundreds of megabytes.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 Keynote presentation

quik.space takes the zipped Keynote file byte-for-byte. The recipient unzips on macOS, double-clicks the .key, and Keynote opens with every slide and every embedded video. Where the format is browser-friendly (PDF, plain text, markdown), the share page renders an inline preview. Other documents download directly.

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.
