You know certainly these URL shortening services (e.g. bit.ly). Every time you want to use them you have to open their webpage and type in your long URL. And when it has finished loading you have to copy the sort URL manually. So here comes the solution.

The native URL shortener for Mac OS X®

Perfect Optimized Workflow

Copy the long URL, press the setted key combination and the URL will be shortened without changing the app. If set the long URl will be copied.

Massive URL Shortening

Thanks to ShortIt's asynchrony it is capable to shorten many URLs at once. In combination with the URL detection it replaces all urls in a longer text.

History

ShortIt provides a fully searchable history of all shrinkages including the long and the short URL as well as the creation date. Copy or open the short URLs directly in your favorite browser.

Custom Shortener

With the APIs of shortening services you are able to add custom shortener. So everyone can decide for themselves where to send the long URLs.

Tokens

With the help of tokens it is possible to activate the two advanced fields AppID and Alias. If you miss an advanced field you should email it to request@massiveflow.de.
