Description
Polr serves as a fast, contemporary, and open-source solution for shortening links. It empowers users to host their own URL shortener, customize their URLs, and maintain control over their data, all while being licensed under GPLv2+. By following the installation guide, you can quickly set it up and start using it. The platform boasts a sleek and user-friendly interface designed for efficient link management and instance control. You can run Polr on your own domain, allowing you to perfect your branding. Whether you choose to utilize Polr as it is or modify the code to suit your specific needs, it offers flexibility in how you manage link shortening privileges, redirects, and even aesthetic themes. The system features a semantic REST API for seamless integration with additional services. Furthermore, you can easily assign new API keys to users automatically or generate them manually, making link creation or lookup straightforward without disrupting your existing codebase. It's worth noting that certain functionalities, including user deletion and password modification, are restricted on the demo instance, which is available for testing the API, interface, or admin panel features. Overall, Polr provides an excellent tool for anyone looking to streamline their URL management.
Description
TinyURL is a URL shortening and link management service, and was the first notable URL shortener when it launched in 2002. It now serves over 4.4 million registered users and has created billions of links.
The platform is built to be driven programmatically. A REST API (v2.4.2, published as an OpenAPI 3.0 spec, bearer-token auth) handles link creation, alias and tag updates, destination changes, archiving and deletion. Analytics are exposed as endpoints rather than being dashboard-only: raw click logs as JSON, timeline series, browser/OS/device breakdowns, weekday and hour popularity, top referrers, top languages, and location by region. Human and bot traffic are reported separately, so click counts mean something. Bulk work runs as batches - POST a batch, poll its status, pull a completion report - which keeps large jobs off the synchronous path. Analytics collection and sharing are independently togglable per link.
Links remain editable after publication, so an already-distributed URL can be repointed rather than replaced. Custom aliases, tags, expiration dates and QR code generation are supported, and links can run on your own domain or subdomain. Free accounts cover 30 links a month with links that never expire; paid plans scale to 50,000 links a month, and Enterprise carries a 99.9% SLA-backed uptime guarantee.
