URL Shortener
Turn long addresses into short, shareable links — with your own ending, a QR code, an optional password or expiry date and click statistics — and see where any short link leads before you open it.
At a glance
- Shortens links with spoo.me or da.gd — free, open-source services — with an optional custom ending such as spoo.me/diwali-sale.
- spoo.me links can have a password, a click limit, an expiry date and bot blocking, and come with click statistics: clicks per day, unique visitors, countries, referrers, devices and browsers.
- Every link gets a QR code (PNG or SVG) and one-tap copy and share; UTM tags for Google Analytics can be added before shortening.
- Bulk shortening: up to 100 links at once, with copy-all and a CSV download.
- Check a short link: see where any bit.ly, TinyURL or other short link leads — every redirect, with warning signs — without opening it.
- No sign-up. The links you make are listed only in this browser; JustTools has no server and never sees them.

Using short links safely
- Check before you click. A short link hides where it goes — paste it into Check a link to see the destination first.
- Don’t shorten private links. Anyone who has the short link can open it, so keep documents, payment and meeting links out of shorteners — or add a password.
- Short links can’t be edited. If the page moves you’ll need a new link, so double-check the long URL before you share it widely.
- Prefer https:// pages. Browsers warn visitors about pages that aren’t encrypted.
