A link platform without the subscription
Short links are not just shorter — they are measurable. Every link you create here records the click count, the country, the device and the referrer, and the analytics tool turns that into a readable chart instead of a raw log. Add UTM parameters with the builder and the same click shows up correctly attributed inside Google Analytics, so you can finally tell which post actually drove the signup.
QR codes are handled in the same place. You can style the dots, drop your logo in the middle and export at print resolution; the static codes never expire, which means a poster printed today still works next year. Bio pages, splash pages and campaign grouping sit alongside them, so one campaign can be planned, launched and measured without moving between three separate paid products.
How it works

Paste your destination

- 2
Add your tracking
Pick a custom slug, attach UTM parameters or generate a matching QR code for print.
- 3
Share and measure
Publish the link, then open the analytics tool to see clicks by day, country and device.
