What Shorten.FYI is
Shorten.FYI, described by its maker as Shorten.REST, is a URL-shortening REST API for high-demand enterprise use. It offers web and API access, custom domains or subdomains with automatically renewed SSL, bulk link creation, and editable destinations that do not expire automatically. Every listed plan includes unlimited URLs and clicks. Click analytics can show referrer, operating system, browser, and country, with raw events available for export. One short URL can route iOS, Android, and desktop visitors to different destinations. Per-link retargeting pixels are listed for Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snap, Bing, Taboola, and AdRoll. The redirect tier targets sub-second responses, while the API targets a sub-200ms median in US regions. Plans start at $99 a month, billed monthly, with a 7-day trial and no free plan. Higher plans add API-call allowances, branded domains, and request-rate limits.
