Spacefast vs Netlify Drop
Both let you drag a folder into a browser and get a live site with no account. Choose Netlify Drop when the site will live on Netlify. Choose Spacefast Drop when your agent updates the same Space and you want private access and share links.
Which publishing workflow fits?
| What matters | Netlify Drop | Spacefast |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | Drag a project folder onto Netlify Drop. | Drag a folder, a .zip or a single index.html onto drop.fast, or publish from your agent, CLI or API. |
| Without an account | Netlify documents instant deployment without an account; it publishes those files as-is. | Drop works without an account too. Claim the Space to keep it past anonymous expiry. |
| Builds | When signed in, Netlify says it can detect the framework and build dropped source. A built output folder also works. | Upload ready-to-serve files, or use a supported connected-build path. |
| Updates | Rebuild locally and drop the updated output on the existing site’s Deploys page, or connect Git for continuous deployment. | Drop onto the same Space again, or publish from your agent, CLI or API. Retained versions can be restored. |
Choose Netlify Drop when…
You already use Netlify, want its Git deployment workflow, or want Netlify to build the source you drop.
Choose Spacefast when…
You want drag-and-drop and your agent to update the same Space, and want to pick named access, a revocable share link or public access before you send it.
