Privacy-first analytics, rebuilt — a full landing redesign and a link-to-account ladder
This is the month the analytics caught up to the promise on the box: real, beautiful click analytics that never watch a single visitor. We rebuilt the dashboard and every link page into a live experience — clear charts, a read on whether each link is gaining or losing steam, and a full aggregate breakdown of where your clicks come from — and made them feel alive from the first second with example-data previews. Then we rebuilt the front door: a top-to-bottom landing redesign around the one thing that sets us apart — track links, not people — and reshaped how a shortened link turns a visitor into an account.
New
- A completely rebuilt landing page, designed around a single promise — track links, not people. A lighter, premium look that leads with privacy as the product’s edge, not a footnote.
- An interactive product showcase that walks one link across every surface it can become — a safe short link, a branded domain, a QR code, organized folders, a full analytics report, automation, team sharing, and a developer API — so you see the whole product in motion before you ever create an account. Several of those surfaces are free.
- A live look at the real thing — interactive dashboard and link-report previews embedded right on the page, so what you sign up for is exactly what you already saw.
- A dedicated home for developers — a “built on a real API” section with scoped API keys, webhooks, and Zapier, where every dashboard action is a documented endpoint.
- Your dashboard looks alive on day one — before your first real click lands, every chart, top-link card, and breakdown renders with clearly-labelled example data, so a brand-new account reads as a finished product instead of an empty shell. The moment a real click arrives, your own numbers take over.
- Every link gets its own analytics page — a headline read on whether it’s gaining or losing steam, a zoomable time-series with Day / Week / Month views, click deltas against the previous window, where your clicks come from (Direct, QR, or API), and a full breakdown across devices, countries, cities, browsers, operating systems, and referrers — counts, never identities.
- See exactly what you’re unlocking — city, browser, and OS reports render right in your dashboard behind a frosted preview with one-tap upgrade, so you see the shape of the data you’re one plan away from instead of a feature that simply isn’t there.
- Custom-styled QR codes, with download and scan tracking on every link.
Improved
- First-run experience rework — a guided product tour, a clear path to your first shortened link, and a referral mission that pays in capped bonus links: +3 when a friend signs up, +10 more when they upgrade.
- Sign-in and sign-up redesigned with a rotating product showcase beside the form — and if you arrived with a link to claim, a live preview of it waiting on the other side of signup.
- Top-to-bottom responsive pass — the homepage, dashboard, and link pages now hold up cleanly from phone to laptop to wide desktop; charts reflow the instant you collapse the sidebar, and wide tables scroll sideways (header and rows together) instead of clipping columns.
- Consistent copy feedback — every “copy” action now confirms with both a checkmark and a toast.
Announcement
- Every shortened link now comes with an account behind it — and a real home. Create a link, claim it the instant you sign up, and watch it grow its own analytics page: clicks, sources, countries, the works. Free links keep for 15 days; on any paid plan they’re permanent. We’d rather earn the upgrade than hold your data hostage — and we’ll never need to know who clicked to show you it’s working. Counts, not people, all the way down.
Fixed
- Bots and link-preview crawlers no longer count as clicks — your numbers reflect real people, not scrapers warming a link.
- Links containing special characters now shorten and resolve correctly.
- Scheduled downgrades keep your paid tier and its features until the end of the billing period you already paid for.
- Zapier endpoints are correctly gated to the Growth tier.
- Faster page loads across the app.
