What LinkPilot is
LinkPilot is a web, API, and browser-extension workspace for sharing secrets and managing branded links. Secret Links send passwords, API keys, notes, and files through URLs that disappear after viewing. LinkPilot encrypts payloads in the browser with AES-GCM-256; the decryption key stays in the URL fragment, while attached file names and sizes remain visible to LinkPilot. Branded short links can use custom slugs, expiration, QR codes, editable destinations, and click analytics. Drop Links accept anonymous messages, email them to a verified recipient, and discard the message text and sender. The service also lists Slack, a CLI, SDK, and MCP server integrations. Its Chrome extension installs in Brave, Edge, Opera, and Vivaldi. REST API access is included on every plan, with plan-specific limits.
Who it suits
The Free plan is described for individuals and side projects. Agency plans suit agencies managing multiple client workspaces, while teams needing secret links, short links, or API access can use the listed web, extension, and API platforms.
