Host apps and websites, spin up Sandboxes, manage domains, run tests, deploy to any cloud, and automate delivery with pipelines, all in one platform. Configure everything through the UI, YAML, or code, or let Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and other AI agents operate Buddy directly through MCP or CLI, including deployments, infrastructure, and logs.
This is the 6th launch from Buddy Works. View more

Launch Team
Buddy Works
Hi Product Hunt!
We built Buddy Drop to make getting your project online as simple as possible.
Just drop your folder, ZIP, or files, choose a free domain or connect your own, and Buddy takes care of the rest.
It works for simple static sites as well as dynamic apps built with frameworks like Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, Remix, TanStack, Express or Lovable.
You can update your project just as easily by dropping new files. And as it grows, you can add backends, databases, background jobs, monitoring, and more.
We’re also running a Buddy Drop launch contest with $1,000 in Buddy credits up for grabs. Build something interesting, publish it with Drop, and share it on X to enter. Go to our launch page for the details: https://buddy.works/drop/contest
We’d love to hear what you think and what you’re building with it. Give it a try!
Buddy Works
We built this to make sharing what you create as frictionless as possible.
You get a clean domain for your project, and out of the box we set up a Git repo, a CI/CD pipeline, and Visual Tests - so you're not just publishing a one-off build, you already have a proper delivery workflow behind it.
The Git repo + delivery pipeline also means the project can naturally grow beyond the first drop: keep iterating on it, bring your team in, review changes, test them, and keep shipping.
Really excited to see what you've been building. Can't wait for your drops!
Does this work with AI agents too, or is it more for manual uploads?
Buddy Works
@bartshoot Yes, AI agents can use Buddy Drop too. We provide a ready-to-copy instruction you can give your agent to deploy the project for you.
Buddy Works
@bartshoot just paste this instruction as your prompt:
Fetch https://buddy.works/drop/llms.txt and follow it to deploy my site with Buddy Drop. When you are done, give me the live URL and the claim URL

Congrats on the launch guys! Does dropping new files overwrite the live site or make a preview first? +1 to no signup...

@henry_habib Dropping new files creates a new Drop at a different address, since the previous address is still occupied by the original Drop. If you want to keep working on the same site, it’s best to claim your workspace in Buddy. You can then edit the files directly in the UI through the Git repository.
Looks really handy for quick prototypes and testing ideas.
Sometimes you just want to put something online fast, without setting up a whole project around it. I think I saw on X there’s some contest going on too? Can’t find it now
Buddy Works
@mjakobsche Yep! We’re giving away $1,000 in Buddy credits for projects built with Buddy Drop. You can find the details and enter here: https://buddy.works/drop/contest
Really proud of the team on this one. Honestly my favorite part is that it's not just "upload and done". You drop your files and you already get a git repo, CI/CD and previews behind it, so if the project takes off you don't have to redo everything. Go drop something and tell us how it went!
Really simple idea but super useful.
Just drop the files and you have a live link a few seconds later.
