A minimalist, permanent URL shortener that runs entirely on Cloudflare's edge network.
No servers to maintain, no cron jobs, no expiration dates.
-
Turns long URLs into short, memorable aliases such as 4ev.link/github
-
Lets every account reserve custom slugs
-
Serves redirects from Cloudflare's global edge—usually under 50 ms
-
Costs nothing on the free tier (1 M requests + 1 GB KV reads / month)
- Cloudflare Workers – serve requests at the edge
- D1 (SQLite) – store user hashes and slug lists
- KV – key/value lookups for lightning-fast redirects
- reCAPTCHA v2 – stop bots from burning your quota
- Client-side scrypt stretching (N=16384, r=8, p=1, 32 B) before the request ever leaves the browser
- All write endpoints require a fresh reCAPTCHA token
- Reserved-word blacklist prevents hijacking of paths such as api, dash, admin, etc
- 100 000 Worker requests/day
- 1 GB KV reads/day
- 1 GB KV writes/month
- 1 GB D1 storage
For personal or small-team usage this is effectively unlimited.
