STL files
Hand over a big STL file with one code
A model is measured in gigabytes, not in attachments. A STL file usually weighs 5 MB – 2 GB, which is exactly where mail and chat give up. This one crosses in one piece, at full quality, and the code stops working when you close the share.

Why it fits your work
The STL file arrives untouched
No re-encoding, no resizing, nothing lost on the way — what you send is byte for byte what lands on the other device.
No account on either side
The other side opens a link or types a short code. Nothing to install and nothing to sign up for, on a phone as well as a computer.
Only the people you choose
Without the code nobody can open the share, and on Max you can put a password on top of it.
Everyone from the same code
Send the STL file once and let the office or the site take it from the same share.
Three steps, no waiting
- 1
Open a share
One click gives you a short code and a link.
- 2
Send the link
Share the code, the link or the square code on screen.
- 3
They get the files
Your files start moving the moment they open it.
Questions people ask
How big can a STL file be?
Up to 5 GB in a free share, and no size limit at all on Max.
Is my STL file re-compressed on the way?
Never. It is handed over exactly as it is — same bytes, same quality, same details inside it.
Does the other side need the same program?
To open the STL file afterwards, yes — Fusion 360, Blender, Cura all read it. To receive it, no: a browser is enough.
Can I put a password on the share?
Yes. On Max a share carries its own password, so a leaked code is not enough to open it.
