Use case
A links API for developers.
Create short links programmatically from your app, CMS, or automation. One authenticated POST returns a ready-to-share link — no SDK required.
One endpoint
POST /v1/shorten with your API key, a URL, and optional slug or domain.
Key-based quotas
Each API key counts against your plan's monthly limit, so usage is easy to track.
Any language
If it can make an HTTP request, it can create links — cURL, JavaScript, Python, anything.
Read the full API documentation and grab a key on the API Keys page.
