Host a PowerPoint as a link.
Drop your .pptx and get a clean URL. The recipient downloads the deck from the link. For a deck that opens in the browser with no download, send the PDF export.
- 25MBa file on the free plan
- 10 linkslive at once, free
- No capon visitors, on any plan
What they see
Your deck arrives as a clean download.
Paste the link into an email or a chat. Apps that show link previews display a card with the filename, and one tap opens a page with the file's name, its size and a download button. The deck then opens in PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides exactly as you built it.
- A preview card with the filename
- A clean page with one download button
- The original .pptx, animations included
How it works
From deck to link in three steps.
Drop the .pptx
Drag it onto the uploader or tap Choose a file. The first one works without an account.
Copy the link
The link works the moment the upload finishes, at a short nudgehost.com address.
Send it before the meeting
Paste it into the invite or the email thread. The recipient downloads the deck with one click.
After you send it
The link keeps up with the deck.
Most of this is on the free plan. Passwords and the detail behind each open come with Pro.
Update the deck, keep the link
Upload the new version over the old one. The address, the view count and any password or end date stay the same.
See whether it was opened
Free accounts see how many times the link was opened. Pro adds the time and country of each open, with a CSV export.
Keep it for the right people
On Pro, a password keeps the deck closed to anyone without it. Any account can give the link an end date.

Why send a deck as a link.
A deck attached to an email can hit a mailbox size limit, and a thread full of revisions leaves everyone guessing which file is current. A link points at one file. Upload a new version over it and the address stays the same, so the copy people download is always the latest.
The link downloads the .pptx rather than opening it in the browser. For a deck people should read without any software, export it to PDF and host the PDF export as well, since that opens straight away and keeps every slide identical. When the deck is one of several files, you can bundle them into one ZIP link.
Locking the link with a password keeps an unannounced deck private. Passwords come with a paid Pro or Studio plan, while end dates and QR codes work on every account.

Frequently asked questions
Does the recipient need PowerPoint installed?
They need something that opens .pptx files: PowerPoint, Keynote, and Google Slides all do. For a deck that opens in the browser with nothing installed, export to PDF first and host that.
Will animations and slide transitions survive?
Yes. The recipient downloads your original file, so everything you built ships with it and plays when they present from their own software.
Can I tell whether the deck was opened?
Yes. Every link has a view counter in your dashboard, which is genuinely useful before a client meeting.
What about Keynote files?
Export to .pptx or PDF from Keynote first, then upload. A raw .key file is an awkward download for anyone who doesn't use Keynote.
