What Snipx is
Snipx is a free URL shortener and UTM builder. You can turn a long link into a short one, tag it with UTM parameters for campaign tracking, and check how it's performing — all without creating an account for the basic flow.
The idea came from a simple, recurring gap: needing clean, trackable links quickly, without signing up for a heavyweight platform just to shorten a URL and tag a campaign.
What it does today
Custom slugs. Instead of a random string, you can pick the ending of your short link — useful when the link itself is part of your messaging.
Full link control. Edit, disable, or update where a link points after you've created it, so a single shortened URL can keep working even if the destination changes.
A no-login UTM builder and shortener. Build a properly tagged URL (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, and so on) and shorten it in the same flow, without needing to sign in first.
Public, on-demand analytics. Every link has an analytics page you can check to see how it's performing — clicks over time, and where traffic is coming from.
A free tier with a link cap. Free accounts are capped on the number of links they can create. It's a straightforward limit, not a bait-and-switch — you know upfront what you're getting.
What it doesn't do yet
In the interest of not overselling: Snipx doesn't currently support custom domains or offer an API. Both are reasonable things to want, and they may come later, but they're not there today. If either is a dealbreaker for your use case right now, it's worth knowing that before you build a workflow around Snipx.
Under the hood
For anyone curious about the stack: Snipx runs on Vercel serverless functions, uses Turso (LibSQL) as its database, tracks events with PostHog, and offers optional donations through Razorpay. Nothing exotic — just a small, focused set of tools chosen to keep the product simple to run and easy to reason about.
Why it exists
There's no shortage of URL shorteners. Snipx isn't trying to replace the big, established players — it's built for the specific case of wanting a fast, no-friction way to shorten a link and tag it properly, without an account wall in front of the basics.
If you try it and something's missing or broken, that feedback is genuinely useful — the roadmap (custom domains, an API, and more) will be shaped by what people actually ask for.
