Short.io

Utility Tools · Development Tools

Short.io is a URL shortening platform built around custom branded domains — rather than links appearing under a shared short.io or bit.ly-style domain, businesses connect their own domain (e.g., go.company.com) so shortened links carry brand recognition and trust, which measurably improves click-through rates compared to generic shortener domains that some users are wary of clicking. Each shortened link comes with click analytics (geographic location, device, browser, referrer) and supports custom back-halves (choosing the slug after the domain rather than getting a random string).
