Hi Product Hunt! We built sl4.me because we wanted a link shortener that is fast, safe, and actually useful for recurring campaigns. The feature we use most is the reusable alias: you can change the long URL behind a short link without breaking the link or resetting analytics history (though you can reset the click counter when you want a fresh start). Try it anonymously, then sign in if you want to manage your links. Happy to answer questions.

sl4.me is no longer just a URL shortener — it has become a full link management platform. Here are the most notable recent additions:
🌐 Branded Custom Domains Users can connect their own domains (e.g. link.yourbrand.com/campaign). DNS verification, SSL provisioning, and Dokploy server-side domain addition are all automated. AAAA/CAA conflict checks are included, and a self-healing 15-minute cron sweep automatically retries any stuck domains.
📊 Advanced Analytics & Time-Series Charts The dashboard now shows more than total clicks: hourly/daily click charts for the last 24 hours / 7 / 30 / 90 days, QR scan vs direct click split, day/hour heatmaps, and per-link performance detail panels.
🔒 Per-Link SEO & Social Previews Each short link can have its own title, description, and OG image. A dedicated link-preview Edge Function serves static meta tags for WhatsApp, LinkedIn, X, and other crawlers that do not execute JavaScript.
🎯 Dynamic QR Codes A QR code is generated automatically for every link. Users can add their own logo/icon or brand initials, download PNG/SVG, and because the QR is dynamic, the destination URL can be changed without reprinting the code.
🛡️ Security & Abuse Prevention The 5-stage safety pipeline (honeypot, reCAPTCHA v3, IP rate limits, domain blacklist, Google Safe Browsing) now automatically re-scans when a destination URL is changed. The admin panel includes abuse health monitoring, auto-scan toggle, and blacklist management.
⚙️ Admin Panel & Role Management A separate user_roles table enables role-based access, plus user management, feedback management, custom domain limit controls, and health diagnostics.
💬 Bilingual UI & More The full interface is available in English and Turkish. Link expiry and click caps, password-protected links, a safety preview page, and a pricing page (Free = 1 domain) are also live.
Technically it runs Vite + React + TypeScript + Tailwind + shadcn/ui on the frontend, self-hosted Supabase (Postgres, Auth, Edge Functions) on the backend, and is deployed via Dokploy. The sale includes the source repository, domains, and existing deployment configuration.
Hi Product Hunt! We built sl4.me to make link shortening fast, safe, and genuinely useful for recurring campaigns. Every link runs through a 5-stage safety pipeline — honeypot, reCAPTCHA v3, rate limiting, domain blacklist, and Google Safe Browsing — and that scan re-runs automatically when you change the destination.
Our favorite feature is branded custom domains: you can run your short links under your own domain (e.g., `link.yourbrand.com/launch`) with automated DNS verification and SSL. Combined with reusable aliases, you can change the long URL behind a short link without breaking it or losing analytics history — perfect for updating campaigns without reprinting QR codes or reissuing collateral.
We also ship dynamic QR codes with your own logo or brand initials, per-link SEO/Open Graph previews for WhatsApp and LinkedIn, QR-vs-direct analytics with time-series charts, and a bilingual EN/TR interface. No account is required to start; sign in for higher limits and full link management.
