The problem

Long URLs are chaos

200-character links in your emails, SMS and social media? Nobody clicks them. Nobody remembers them. And you never know if anyone actually used them.

  • Unreadable URLs that break in emails
  • No visibility into clicks
  • Impossible to share verbally
  • UTM parameters exposed for all to see
