Visit Short Menu

Short Menu is a URL shortener that creates branded short links on custom domains and trackable QR codes, with click analytics covering timeline, location, device, and referrer data. It runs in the browser and as native apps for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, including a menu bar app with customizable hotkeys, share sheet access, and automatic shortening of copied URLs.

Core features include custom slugs, social media thumbnails, UTM parameters, mobile and region redirects, unlimited link redirects, link editing, and QR codes without branding. Analytics provide click timeline, country and region data, device breakdown, and referrer data. Integrations are available with Airtable, Zapier, Make.com, ChatGPT, and Lindy, alongside an API.

Short Menu is aimed at creators, small businesses, and companies managing link traffic. It is packaged as a free plan with monthly limits on new links and tracked clicks, plus Lite, Pro, and Growth editions that raise those limits and add custom domains, longer analytics retention, and link add-ons. Billing can be monthly or yearly.
