Comparison
sharehtml.org vs Claude Publish
Verdict: Publish is the fastest way to show a Claude artifact to someone, if public and crawlable is fine. When it is not, or the artifact lives on a Team plan, download the HTML and share it from sharehtml.org.
Claude Publish creates claude.ai/public/artifacts/<uuid>. Anyone with the link can view it. There is no password, no expiry and no view count. Unpublish is one-way. claude.ai/robots.txt does not block the path, and in July 2026 shared Claude links were reported in Google results. Team and Enterprise artifacts are org-only unless an Owner enables external sharing. I run sharehtml.org; checked 2026-09-03.
| sharehtml.org | Claude Publish | |
|---|---|---|
| Account to publish | none | Claude account, any plan |
| Your HTML served as-is | yes, byte-for-byte | no, in a shell on *.claudeusercontent.com with a strict CSP |
| External images and fonts | work | images blocked; scripts only from a few CDNs |
| Default visibility | unlisted, noindex header | public, crawlable |
| Password or owner-only | Pro, $5/mo | no |
| Team and Enterprise plans | same as everyone | org-only unless an Owner allows |
| Undo | delete, replace, change visibility, any time | unpublish is one-way |
| Live MCP data in the page | no | yes, with viewer sign-in |
Where Claude Publish is better
- Zero steps: one click inside the chat. We need a download and a drop.
- Artifacts that call Claude or MCP connectors at runtime keep working. We host static HTML only.
- Claude Code artifacts add version history and org comments on Pro and Max.
- Anthropic's sandbox limits what a page can do, which is a safety feature for some viewers.
Where sharehtml.org is better
- Unlisted by default. Publish is public and crawlable with no control.
- Password and owner-only pages on Pro. Publish has neither.
- Works on every Claude plan, including Team and Enterprise, and for artifacts downloaded from anywhere.
- No CSP of ours: external images, fonts and CDN scripts load as written.
- Replace the page and keep the link. Unpublishing in Claude is permanent for that artifact.
Pick one
Pick Claude Publish when public is fine and the artifact needs live Claude calls. Pick sharehtml.org when you want the file served as-is, unlisted or password-protected, on any plan.
