About Shrtn

Shrtn is a fast, free, and privacy-respecting URL shortener built in the UK.

What we do

Shrtn makes long, unwieldy URLs short and shareable. Paste any URL, get a clean shrtn.co.uk link back in under a second. No sign-up required to start.

Why we built it

We believe in simple, well-built tools. No tracking pixels, no selling your data to advertisers, no VC-backed "premium" upsells. Just reliable link shortening.

Features

Instant URL shortening — no account required
Click analytics with device and referrer tracking
Custom aliases for registered users
QR code generation for every link
URL safety checking via Google Safe Browsing
GDPR-compliant: IPs are hashed, never stored in plain text

Free forever?

The core product is free. We may introduce a Pro tier in future for power users who need higher limits, branded domains, or team features. We'll never charge for what's free today.
