tiiny.host vs. Annopane: hosting link or feedback app?

tiiny.host shaped a category: drop a file, get a link. Over two million people have put portfolios, menus, PDFs and small websites online that way. The product is mature – custom domains, password protection, QR codes, visitor analytics, email capture.

Last reviewed: October 30, 2026 · HTML & PDF hosting by upload

Annopane takes the same first step but aims at something else: files that need feedback and should work like an app on the phone – with comments at the exact spot and a way back to the AI that built the file.

When tiiny.host is the better choice

  • You need a classic website or portfolio permanently online, with a custom domain and SEO.
  • Marketing features like email capture, link tracking or banner tests are the priority.
  • You want to host PHP or very large web projects.

When Annopane is the better choice

  • The file should be commented on – by colleagues, clients or friends, without an account, right on the element.
  • The file comes from Claude, ChatGPT or Lovable and you want to feed the feedback back into the AI.
  • Recipients should use it like an app on the phone – home screen, full screen, offline.
  • Besides HTML you want to share and get comments on PDF, Excel, Word and PowerPoint in the same folder.
  • Data residency in the EU matters to you.

Two tools, one first step

Both start the same way: upload a file, get a link. Then the paths part. tiiny.host optimizes for the link being a good web page: domain, load time, analytics, marketing. Annopane optimizes for the file being a good working document: comments, versions, feedback back to the AI, folders for the team.

What tiiny.host does better

Seven years' head start shows: custom domains on every paid plan, detailed analytics, email capture, team features, a visual editor and dozens of help pages. If you need a business-card website, a portfolio or a menu, that's the place.

What Annopane does differently

A monthly report from Claude isn't a website. It should look like an app on management's phone, work on the plane, and when someone questions a number the comment should stick to that very number – not sit in an email. Then Claude should read the comments and build the next version. That loop is Annopane's core; hosting is just the means.

Our verdict

For websites, portfolios and marketing pages permanently online: tiiny.host. For reports, calculators, prototypes and documents that get commented on, revised and used like an app on the phone: Annopane. If you need both, use both – the files are the same.
