These are not really competitors. WeTransfer is a transfer service — push a file to a recipient who downloads it. Tiiny Host is a file hosting service — upload an HTML page, PDF, or static site and get a permanent URL. Here is which one fits which use case.
The short answer
WeTransfer wins when you need to deliver a file to a specific recipient and they download it. Tiiny Host wins when you need to host a static asset (a PDF, an HTML preview, a portfolio piece) with a permanent URL. For branded client delivery with tracking, BulkShare beats both.

Decision guide
Choose WeTransfer
You're sending a specific file to a specific recipient and they need to download it. The file doesn't need a permanent home — it's a deliverable that gets consumed and then is no longer relevant. WeTransfer's transfer-first UX is the right fit.
Choose Tiiny Host
You need a permanent URL for a PDF, HTML preview, portfolio piece, or static page. You want a custom domain and persistent hosting. Visitors will access the file via the URL repeatedly — not download once and move on. Tiiny Host's hosting-first UX is the right fit.
Pick neither when…
You're running recurring client deliveries — a new file every project, with the same client. WeTransfer creates a generic transfer link each time; Tiiny Host treats each file as a permanent hosted asset. Neither is optimized for the agency workflow of repeatable, branded, trackable client handoffs.
WeTransfer is a transfer service — files have a temporary URL that expires, designed for one-off delivery to a specific recipient. Tiiny Host is a hosting service — files get a permanent URL, designed for sharing/embedding (PDF portfolios, HTML previews, static sites). Different jobs — they only overlap in the very narrow case of sharing a single file via a link.
Only in limited cases. Tiiny Host hosts files permanently — every upload becomes a public web asset with its own URL. That's not the right model for client deliverables you want to expire. WeTransfer's expiry-first model fits transfers; Tiiny's permanence-first model fits hosting.
Yes, but they solve different problems. Tiiny Host Pro is ~$8/mo for custom-domain hosting; WeTransfer Ultimate is ~$23/mo for unlimited transfer size. Comparing on price misses the point — you're paying for hosting vs transferring, not the same product at different prices.
Use Tiiny Host when you need a permanent URL: a PDF portfolio that recruiters access for months, an HTML preview of a design, a static landing page for a small project. Use WeTransfer when you need to send one file to one client once. Different stages of the asset lifecycle.
WeTransfer does not support custom-domain delivery. Tiiny Host supports it on Pro ($8/mo) but the file becomes a permanent hosted asset — not the model for one-off client deliveries. For branded one-time client deliveries with expiry, BulkShare Pro at $19/mo is the closest fit.
BulkShare. Pro ($19/mo) gives custom-domain delivery (like Tiiny), per-link expiry (like WeTransfer), password protection, and download tracking. Designed specifically for the recurring agency-to-client handoff workflow — not for hosting (Tiiny) or for ad-hoc transfer (WeTransfer).
