Tollbooth Shortlinks

Ephemeral, human-friendly short URLs. A community utility, free, with no monetization at all.

Give it any URL and get back a memorable slug. Share the short form; visitors are redirected instantly. Links expire after twenty-four hours on their own.

It exists because OAuth redirect URLs are unreadable and unspeakable, and because a patron following an authorization flow on a phone should not have to retype ninety characters of query string. No tracking, no interstitials, no analytics, nothing retained past the day.
