Right-click it in Finder. Ricly uploads it and puts a link on your clipboard. Whoever you send it to downloads it without an account.

Ricly puts that one in the menu that is already under your cursor. Right-click the file, pick Upload & Share, the link is already on your clipboard. This one does upload — it is the only tool that does.
See what else comes with itEvery other tool in Ricly works on-device. Sharing cannot, so here is exactly what happens instead of a promise.
That one file. Nothing else in the folder is read, listed or sent.
It sits there to be downloaded, and is used for nothing else.
The link dies on its own. There is no forever by accident.
Shared Links lists every live link. Revoke one and it stops working immediately.
One page, one button. No account, no app, no email address to hand over, nothing to install. It works on a phone as well as on a desktop.
The page shows the file name, its type and size, and how long is left before the link expires — with a preview when it is an image. One button, and the file is theirs. Under it, a clip and a Finder illustration say where the link came from.
When the upload finishes, Ricly copies the link for you. Paste it into a message and you are done.
Video, audio, archives, folders you compressed first. There is no list of accepted types, only the storage ceiling of your plan.
Free keeps 1 GB live at a time. When a link expires, that space comes back and you can send again.
Shared Links shows what is live, how long is left and how many times each one was downloaded.
Everybody uploads for this one — that is what sending a large file means. The difference is how many moves it takes to get to the link.
WHAT IT REPLACES
Ricly packs the selection into one archive before uploading. You do not compress anything yourself, and the person on the other end gets a single link instead of eleven. A drag-and-drop site can take several files too — what it cannot do is start from the folder that is already under your cursor.
macOS has its own answer, and it is a good one. Mail Drop sends up to 5 GB through iCloud, free, built into Mail, and the recipient downloads it for 30 days. If you are writing an email anyway, use it. What it cannot do is give you a link without an email — no message to compose, no address to type, nothing to send. Ricly puts the link on your clipboard so you can drop it in Slack, a message or a document. Finding the file counts as a step on a website, because you have to go and look for it in a picker. With Ricly you are already on it. Waiting is never counted: they all wait, and so does this one.
No tab to open, no account to find, no window to drag a file into. The link is on your clipboard before you have let go of the mouse.
Upload & Share is not an app you install. It is one item in a menu that also carries 16 others — same download, same account, nothing extra to set up.
13 are free, 4 are Pro. They install themselves as they ship, so the menu grows without you doing anything. This one is the only tool in the list that sends anything off your Mac — the other sixteen never do.
1 GB online at a time, up to 3 new links a day, each expiring after 3 days.
€47.88 billed yearly, or €4.99 month to month.
No. They open the link and press one button. They are never asked for an email address.
The page says the link has expired and offers nothing else. The file is gone and the space is back on your allowance.
Yes. Shared Links in the app, revoke, and it stops working right away.
The limit is what you keep online at once: 1 GB on Free, 20 GB on Pro. A single file can fill it. Free also caps you at 3 new links a day.
Yes, and it is the only one. Every other tool in Ricly runs on your Mac and works with the Wi-Fi off.
That is the free tier of this one tool: 1 GB online at a time, 3 new links a day, links lasting 3 days. The word comes off as soon as you are on Pro, and the ceilings with it — 20 GB and 30 days. Every other tool keeps the same name on both plans.
Yes. Select a folder, or several files at once, and Ricly packs them into a single archive before uploading — you do not have to compress anything yourself. You get one link for the lot.
17 file tools in the Finder menu. Free to start.
