Dropway provides a collaboration layer that turns any folder of static files into a live, shareable URL with granular per‑site permissions. Teams can attach chat logs, skills, and API‑key‑driven automation so viewers see both the artifact and the context behind its creation, while the service offers free and paid tiers for scaling site counts and features.

Problem
Teams that regularly generate static artifacts such as reports, dashboards, prototypes, or design handoffs struggle to share them securely and efficiently. Email attachments become outdated, chat file drops get lost, and public storage services lack access control, while setting up a full web server or CI pipeline is excessive for a single folder. The lack of built‑in permissions forces teams to choose between unsafe sharing or high‑overhead solutions.
Solution
Dropway converts any directory of static files into a live, access‑controlled URL in seconds, eliminating the need for separate hosting or CI configuration. Users can deploy via a web dashboard, a CLI, or API keys, allowing automated site creation from scripts or CI jobs without interactive logins. Each site supports granular sharing tiers—public, password‑protected, email allowlist, or organization‑only—so the appropriate audience sees the content. The platform also attaches the originating chat logs and reusable “skills” to the site, providing full context for the artifact. Unlimited team members can collaborate on unlimited sites (depending on plan), with custom domains, version history, instant rollback, and priority support available on higher tiers. An open‑source codebase under the FSL enables self‑hosting for organizations that require full control.
Target Audience
Primary customers are product, design, data, and engineering teams that need to share static builds, reports, prototypes, or design handoffs securely, as well as larger organizations requiring audit‑ready artifact sharing.
