# SnapHost

> SnapHost turns anything your AI builds, from a report or dashboard to a notebook or full web app, into a private, live website behind real email verification. Viewers prove their email before any content loads, so only the people you invite can open it. You can publish by pasting or uploading a file, or let your AI publish and refresh sites on its own over MCP.

SnapHost is a hosting and private-sharing platform for AI-generated output. It is built for people who work with AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor and need to share what they create without making it public or baking a password into the HTML.

## Who it is for

People who work with AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor and need to share generated reports, dashboards, notebooks, or apps with specific people, without making them public or hardcoding a password. Analysts, consultants, founders, and teams use SnapHost to send private, always-current links.

## What you can publish

- Any HTML, Markdown, Jupyter notebook, PDF, slide deck, dashboard, or full web bundle.
- Output from any AI assistant, or files you upload yourself with no AI involved.

## How privacy works

- New sites are private by default.
- Every viewer verifies their email before any content loads. You add or revoke people on an allowlist at any time.
- Per-site controls: require a password, set an expiry date, or open a site to the public.
- Each site renders on a sandboxed, cookieless origin isolated from your account.
- Every publish is versioned and reversible; roll back to any earlier version in one click.

## AI publishing and automation

- Connect over MCP (the Model Context Protocol) so your AI assistant publishes and updates sites directly.
- Scoped API tokens let any script, CI pipeline, or agent publish.
- Set up a scheduled routine (for example a daily Claude Code run) that pulls fresh data from tools like Power BI or a spreadsheet and republishes the site automatically. The link never changes.

## Connect your AI

- Hosted MCP endpoint (Streamable HTTP, OAuth with dynamic client registration, no token needed): https://app.snaphost.ai/api/mcp
- Any client in one command: npx snaphost connect (configures Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI; the browser opens to authorize on first use)
- Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http snaphost https://app.snaphost.ai/api/mcp
- Claude Code plugin with /snaphost:* skills and the connection bundled: /plugin marketplace add snaphost-ai/snaphost then /plugin install snaphost@snaphost
- Claude on the web or desktop: Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, paste the endpoint URL
- Docs: https://snaphost.ai/docs/mcp-server and https://snaphost.ai/docs/skills

## Data layer

- Every published site has a built-in data layer through an injected window.SNAPHOST SDK, so the page your AI builds can capture and store data with no backend to wire up.
- Key-value storage plus an append-only event log; the SDK exposes append, query, get, list, and viewer.
- Powers contact forms, waitlists, RSVPs, guestbooks, counters, leaderboards, and comments out of the box.
- To attribute a record to a person (leaderboard, comments, clock-in), the page calls window.SNAPHOST.viewer() for the signed-in viewer's identity and stores it in the record's value. The server-stamped actor is redacted in-page, so pages never read it back to display who did something, and known people fold to one row while anonymous entries each stay separate.
- You see every submission and event in a Data tab on your dashboard. This makes SnapHost more than static hosting: the thing your AI built can actually collect and store data.
- The data layer is available on Pro.

## Pricing

Plans bill monthly in EUR; cancel anytime. The MCP server and API tokens are included on every plan, Free included.

- Free: €0, your personal space. Up to 3 public sites per month on sites.snaphost.ai, viewable by anyone with the link, carries a SnapHost watermark.
- Pro: comes as a workspace, one per project, for one person or with the people they invite, at €19 per paid member per month; the personal space is always free, and upgrading means creating a workspace with you as its first paid member. Create as many workspaces as you have projects. Unlimited public or private sites with verified viewers, no watermark, live auto-updates driven by your AI, version history and rollback, fine-grained access controls, your own custom domain, a built-in data layer with 5 GB of storage, and, per workspace, member roles, a shared drive, and a subdomain like acme.snaphost.ai. A workspace pays for the people who can publish (owner, admins, members), added the day they join and removed the day they leave, on one invoice. Viewers open what is shared with them and are free, however many you invite.
- Enterprise: a fixed monthly platform fee plus Pro seats for the people who publish. The fee covers what an organisation or a municipality needs to adopt SnapHost formally: a signed data-processing agreement under the GDPR, a security review (questionnaire and a meeting with IT and the data-protection officer), EU hosting with encryption and verified, logged readers; a workspace on the customer's own domain with their logo, colours and type, access by department or for everyone on the domain; one annual invoice in their currency on their own terms; a named contact who answers within one working day, a quarterly meeting on request, and priority on feature requests. Readers never pay, whether staff, elected officials, residents or TV screens showing a dashboard, with no fee per screen and no hardware. Contact sales@snaphost.ai.

## FAQ

Q: What is SnapHost?
A: SnapHost turns anything your AI builds into a private, live website behind real email verification, so only the people you invite can open it.

Q: How is it different from a password-protected link or a Google Drive or Notion share?
A: A shared password or link is a single secret anyone can forward. SnapHost verifies each viewer by email against an allowlist you control, so access is per-person and revocable, with no public URL.

Q: Can my AI keep a site updated automatically?
A: Yes. Set up a scheduled routine (for example a daily Claude Code run) that pulls fresh data from tools like Power BI or a spreadsheet and republishes the site. The link never changes.

Q: How do I connect the MCP server?
A: Connect the hosted SnapHost MCP endpoint once and your AI assistant can publish and update sites over the Model Context Protocol. The MCP server and API tokens are included on every plan, Free included.

Q: Can a SnapHost site collect and store data?
A: Yes. Every published site has a built-in data layer through an injected window.SNAPHOST SDK, giving key-value storage and an append-only event log with no backend to wire up. Forms, waitlists, RSVPs, and counters work out of the box, and you see everything in a Data tab. It is available on Pro.

Q: Is SnapHost secure?
A: Every site renders on a sandboxed, cookieless origin isolated from your account, content streams only after a viewer is verified, every publish is versioned and reversible, and you keep a full access log.
