# A Lobsite alternative for agent pages that should outlast six hours

By Avatar 8 (Avatar 8 LLC) · Published November 10, 2026 · https://deed.page/blog/lobsite-alternative

A Lobsite alternative is another static host that puts an HTML page or a built folder online from a terminal or an AI agent, and hands back a public link. Lobsite sites deployed without an account last 6 hours unless a person opens the claim link and signs in ([Lobsite docs](https://lobsite.com/docs.md)), while a deed.page site published with no account stays online until its owner deletes it, and the Free plan holds 25 such sites ([pricing](https://deed.page/pricing)).

Every Lobsite claim below was read on lobsite.com on November 10, 2026, with the source linked next to it. Plans change, so check their pages before you decide. The deed.page commands were run against production the same day with a 15-minute expiry, and the test sites were then deleted.

## What is a good Lobsite alternative?

Lobsite is a well-built host for people and coding agents. `npx lobsite` finds your `dist/` or `build/` folder, uploads only changed files, and prints a URL. Under an agent it ends with a "Tell the user:" line that carries the claim link ([agent docs](https://lobsite.com/docs/agents.md)). It also has a remote MCP server at `https://lobsite.com/api/mcp` with one tool, `deploy_files`, and a curl endpoint for boxes without Node ([agent docs](https://lobsite.com/docs/agents.md)).

The catch for agents is the clock. An unclaimed site "is removed in 6h", and keeping it needs a human to sign in ([agent docs](https://lobsite.com/docs/agents.md)). A free account then holds 1 site ([pricing](https://lobsite.com/pricing)). If your agent publishes a report at night and the person reads it the next morning, the link may already be gone.

A good alternative for that case returns a link that lasts with no human step. On deed.page, one request returns the live URL and an owner token. There is no claim link and no default expiry; `X-Ttl` is opt-in.

## Side by side (checked November 10, 2026)

| | Lobsite | deed.page |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First publish | No account; site lasts 6 hours unless claimed ([docs](https://lobsite.com/docs.md)) | No account; no default expiry |
| Keeping it | Person opens claim link and signs in ([agent docs](https://lobsite.com/docs/agents.md)) | Nothing; the agent keeps the token |
| Free account | 1 site, 50 MB, 100 files, 10 GB/month ([pricing](https://lobsite.com/pricing)) | 25 sites, 25 MB each, 10 GB transfer/month ([pricing](https://deed.page/pricing)) |
| Deploys without an account | 10 an hour, 3 a day per site ([limits](https://lobsite.com/docs.md)) | Free plan: 60 publishes an hour |
| Choose the URL | First deploy gets a generated `*.lobsite.app` name ([agent docs](https://lobsite.com/docs/agents.md)) | Agent picks the slug |
| MCP | Local `npx -y lobsite@latest mcp`; remote `https://lobsite.com/api/mcp` ([agent docs](https://lobsite.com/docs/agents.md)) | Remote `https://deed.page/mcp`, no sign-in |
| Cheapest paid plan | Standard, $20/year, shown as $1.67/month ([pricing](https://lobsite.com/pricing)) | Hobby, $3/month or $30/year |

Where Lobsite is ahead: forms without a backend, uploads that send only changed files, a dashboard with drag and drop, preview URLs per deploy, a free custom domain on its 1 free site, and a lower yearly price for 5 sites ([docs](https://lobsite.com/docs.md), [pricing](https://lobsite.com/pricing)). deed.page has no forms and no browser upload page, and Free sites show a small "Published with deed.page" link that Hobby removes.

## The one-line curl

```bash
curl -T index.html "https://deed.page/v1/sites?slug=launch-page-l6b9&ref=blog"
```

The reply, trimmed:

```json
{"ok":true,"url":"https://launch-page-l6b9.deed.page/","version":"v1","version_url":"https://v1--launch-page-l6b9.deed.page/","token":"deed_tok_…"}
```

`launch-page-l6b9` is only an example; pick your own slug. The token is shown once and deed.page stores only its SHA-256, so save it right away ([token hygiene](https://deed.page/blog/token-hygiene-for-agents)). Running the same command with `-H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEDPAGE_TOKEN"` updates the same URL. In our test the update returned `v2`, an identical re-upload returned `unchanged: true`, and the `v1--` permalink still served v1.

## The MCP call

Add `https://deed.page/mcp` to Claude, Cursor, or any Streamable HTTP MCP client. "Put this page online" becomes one tool call:

```json
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"publish_site","arguments":{"slug":"launch-page-mcp-l6b9","files":{"index.html":"<!doctype html><title>Launch page</title><h1>Published over MCP</h1>"}}}}
```

Our test returned `"ok": true`, a live `https://launch-page-mcp-l6b9.deed.page/`, and a token. Passing that token as the `token` argument to `update_site` returned `v2` at the same URL. The [MCP walkthrough](https://deed.page/blog/mcp-publish-walkthrough) covers listing and deletes.

## Moving a built folder from Lobsite

Point deed.page at the same folder `npx lobsite` was deploying:

```bash
tar -czf site.tgz -C dist . && curl -X PUT "https://deed.page/v1/sites?slug=launch-page-l6b9" --data-binary @site.tgz -H "Content-Type: application/gzip" -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEDPAGE_TOKEN"
```

Bodies over 4 MB use the [large-site upload](https://deed.page/blog/plan-upload-large-sites). For a React or Vite app with client routes, turn on [SPA mode](https://deed.page/blog/spa-mode-client-routes).

## FAQ

**Is deed.page free like Lobsite?**
Yes. Free costs $0 and covers 25 sites of up to 25 MB each, with no account. Hobby is $3/month for 250 sites, a site password, and no badge.

**Does a deed.page site disappear if nobody claims it?**
No. There is no claim step. A site stays up until its owner token deletes it, or until an `X-Ttl` you chose runs out.

**When should I stay on Lobsite?**
When you want forms, a drag-and-drop dashboard, preview URLs per deploy, or diff-only uploads for a large built site. Those are things Lobsite does and deed.page does not.
