What is Anchor?

Anchor is a platform for shared artifacts that AI agents create and humans review. Your agent writes HTMLs, Markdowns, tables, and any other file type — and Anchor gives each one a permanent, shareable home. Connect your agent — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Codex, or any other — using MCP, describe what you need, and it builds it in Anchor. You review, share, and collaborate with your team.

Think of it as a shared drive built for the output of your AI's work: tables, HTML, Markdown, CSV, JSON, PDF, and any file type you need. Everything lives at anchor.cc and works in any browser on desktop or mobile.

File types

Everything in Anchor is a file. One type is unique to Anchor — tables — and beyond that, you can store any file type you already work with: HTMLs, Markdowns, PDFs, CSVs, images, code, and more. Each one gets a stable URL you can link to, bookmark, or share.

Tables

Tables are structured, queryable data at anchor.cc/table/<tableID>. Your AI agent is fully connected to them, which means you can:

• Create and edit schemas — add or rename columns, change types, reorganize.
• Query, filter, and sort rows in natural language. No formulas, no SQL.
• Transform and analyze — group, aggregate, pivot, join, or derive new columns from existing ones.
• Visualize — ask for charts, summaries, and breakdowns.

A single table can be referenced by multiple files at once — your investor update, your pipeline tracker, and your weekly report can all share the same source of truth.

HTML

HTML files are the richest format your AI can produce — beautifully designed pages, dashboards, documentation, and interactive content. Each HTML file gets its own page at anchor.cc/file/<fileID> and renders natively in the browser. Your agent creates and updates them; you review and share.

Markdown

Markdown is the universal format for documentation — meeting notes, decision records, changelogs, runbooks, and specs. Anchor renders Markdown natively with clean typography. Simple to write, readable everywhere.

Other files

Beyond tables, HTML, and Markdown, you can store any ordinary file — PDFs, images, CSVs, code, and more. Each one gets its own page at anchor.cc/file/<fileID> where it can be viewed in the browser or downloaded. Your agent creates files for you, and you share them just like anything else in Anchor.

Supported file types

Anchor recognizes these file types and renders them natively in the browser. Unrecognized types can still be uploaded and downloaded.

Uploading

Files can be uploaded by your AI agent or directly through the Anchor UI. The upload destination is always a folder — jump to any folder's upload dialog with anchor.cc/folder/<folderID>/upload.

Structure: orgs, folders, files

Anchor organizes everything into three layers.

Organizations

An organization is the top-level boundary — your team, company, or any group that works together. Every org has three roles:

• Owner — full control. Can manage members, rename, delete, and transfer ownership of the org.
• Manager — can add and remove members, invite new people, and rename the org.
• Member — can see the org roster. Cannot manage members or change org settings.

Org roles are purely administrative — they control who can manage the org itself, not who can see its content. Content access must be granted separately at the folder or file level.

Folders

All content lives inside folders. Folders always belong to an organization and can be nested to any depth. Every folder has its own permissions: an owner, editors (can view and edit), and viewers (view only).

Files

Tables and all other file types live inside folders. Files inherit access from their parent folders, but you can also grant additional access directly on any file — for example, sharing a single file with someone who doesn't have access to the folder it lives in. See Sharing & permissions for the full details.

Sharing & permissions

Nobody gets access to anything automatically — someone always has to explicitly share it with them. Being in an org doesn't mean you can see its content.

Three roles, everywhere

Every folder and every file uses the same three roles:

• Owner — full control. Can edit, share, transfer ownership, and delete.
• Editor — can view, edit, create sub-items, move, copy, and invite others.
• Viewer — can view and copy. Cannot edit, move, delete, or see who else has access.

Additive inheritance

Folder permissions flow down to subfolders and files. If someone is an editor on a parent folder, they're an editor on everything inside. The highest access level always wins.

Who can see the permissions?

Viewers see only the owner of a file and their own role. Editors and owners see the full list of who has access.

Shared with me

When someone shares a file or folder with you — whether it's from another org or a subfolder you don't otherwise have access to — it appears in your Shared with me view.

Invite by email

You can invite anyone as an editor or viewer by email, even if they don't have an Anchor account yet. They'll gain access when they sign up.

Plans & billing

Billing in Anchor is tied to the organization, not the individual. There's no per-seat pricing: an org pays one price that covers everyone in it.

Plans are per org

Every organization is on a plan — Free, Pro, Business, or Enterprise. Upgrading or downgrading applies to that org only. See pricing for the current tiers and limits.

Limits are per org

Each org has its own usage limits based on its plan. These include:

• The number of team members in the org.
• The number of rows across all tables.
• The number of tables the org can host.
• Storage — total file size across the org.
• Monthly platform usage — reads, writes, and agent actions.

Shared content

Items that another org has shared with you don't count toward your org's limits; they stay billed to the org that owns them.

Connecting your AI agent

Anchor is built for collaboration between humans and AI. Your AI agent creates HTMLs, Markdowns, tables, and other files. You review, share, and use everything on anchor.cc.

This works by connecting your favorite agent to Anchor via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the open standard for AI tool use. Any MCP-compatible agent works: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, Codex, and more.

Account deletion

If you'd like to delete your Anchor account and all associated data, email support@anchor.cc from the email address linked to your account.
