Everything your site needs

From a single HTML file to a multi-page website — thin.host handles the infrastructure so you ship the product.

🚀

Upload & host

Drag and drop HTML, CSS, JS, images, and fonts. Your site is live at a shareable thin.host URL in under a minute.

✎

Edit in place

Click any element on the live page to edit text, styles, or images. No code editor, no redeploy, no refresh cycle.

🌐

Custom domains

Connect your own domain or use a free thin.host subdomain. SSL provisions automatically. Apex and subdomain both supported.

🔒

Access protection

Password-protect any site or individual page. Set session duration per page. Great for client previews or staged rollouts.

📚

Multi-page sites

Manage multiple pages under one website. Each page has its own HTML, CSS, and JS. Set any page as the default.

⚡

Instant CDN

Assets are served from a global CDN with automatic caching. No config required — fast by default everywhere.

Quick file hosting

Sometimes you just need a link. Upload a single HTML file, a zip of assets, or a folder — and get a permanent URL in seconds. Perfect for prototypes, demos, one-pagers, and client deliverables.

No account required for a test upload
Zip files extracted automatically
Images, fonts, scripts all served correctly
Permanent URL, no expiry

# Upload via REST API

curl -X POST https://thin.host/v1/pages \

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \

  -F "file=@site.zip"

# → { "url": "https://abc.thin.host", ... }

Custom domains with one click

Connect your own domain directly from the website dashboard. Enter your domain, follow the CNAME instructions, and SSL provisions within minutes — no terminal, no Cloudflare account required.

Apex domains (mysite.com) and subdomains (app.mysite.com)
Automatic SSL via Let's Encrypt
Human-readable DNS instructions for your registrar
Domain status visible in the dashboard

# API: associate a custom domain

curl -X POST https://thin.host/v1/domains \

  -H "X-Platform-API-Key: th_live_..." \

  -d '{"domain":"mysite.com",

     "origin_url":"https://abc.thin.host",

     "end_user_email":"user@example.com"}'

Agent-native domain API

Your AI agent can provision custom domains without the user ever touching a dashboard — claim flow, billing, and DNS instructions all handled.

Built for agents, not human integrators

The thin.host MCP server exposes five domain tools your agent calls directly. Provision a domain, get back a hosted claim URL and DNS instructions, and send the user one link. That's it.

# Your agent provisions a domain in one call

result = await mcp.call("provision_domain", {

  "domain": "myportfolio.com",

  "origin_url": "https://abc.thin.host",

  "user_email": "user@example.com"

})

# → { claim_url, dns_instructions, provision_id }

# Share claim_url with the user → they pay & configure DNS

# Poll until ready

status = await mcp.call("check_domain_status", {

  "provision_id": result["provision_id"]

})

# → { status: "active", ready: true }
