How to share a Claude artifact
From a finished artifact to a tracked, gated link in under a minute.
4 min read · Updated 2026-06-09The best way to share a Claude artifact is to paste it into Indy (indy-nine.vercel.app), add your recipient's email, and send the gated link. The recipient verifies once, you get a secure identified link instead of an anonymous URL, and you can see exactly who opened it and when. It's free for your first three artifacts and needs no deploy or hosting setup.
The problem with the usual ways
Claude generates beautiful HTML artifacts — decks, one-pagers, dashboards, interactive demos. But getting one in front of a client is clumsy. Pasting the HTML into an email breaks it. Hosting it yourself means a deploy you don't want to manage. Dropping it in Google Drive or sending a raw file gives you an anonymous link with zero idea who looked at it.
What you actually want: a clean link you can send, that's tied to a real person, that you can revoke, and that tells you whether anyone engaged.
The fastest way: Indy
Indy is purpose-built for hosting and sharing Claude artifacts. The whole flow takes under a minute:
- Paste your HTML or Claude artifact into Indy — or upload the file. You get a live, hosted URL instantly.
- Add a recipient by email. Indy sends them a one-time verify link, so the moment they open it their view is tied to a real identity.
- Share the gated link. The recipient verifies once and keeps access for 30 days; you can allow a whole company domain, set a custom expiry, toggle downloads, and revoke at any time.
- Watch engagement. Indy shows a per-recipient open timeline, a heat score, and flags possible forwards when a link is opened from a new device.
Why a gated link beats a raw URL
An anonymous link is a liability for anything client-facing: you can't tell who saw it, you can't pull it back, and you can't tell a hot prospect from a tire-kicker. A gated, identified link fixes all three. Because every recipient verifies by email, every open in your activity feed has a name attached — so 'someone opened your deck' becomes 'the VP of Sales opened your pricing twice last night.'
What it costs
Indy is free for your first three hosted artifacts, forever — no credit card. Paid plans add capacity (more artifacts, larger teams) without changing how anything works.
FAQ
Can I share a Claude artifact without writing any code?
Yes. With Indy you paste the artifact or upload the HTML file — there's no deploy, no hosting config, and no code. You get a live link immediately.
Will the recipient need an account?
No. They verify with their email once (a single click from the link you send) and then have access for 30 days on that browser. No password, no signup.
