A link shortener that asks for nothing.
Last updated: October 2, 2026 · Free online tool and Chrome extension by Gallera Studio
Most link shorteners are built around an account: sign up, confirm the email, then watch the free quota. URL Shortener by Gallera Studio skips all of that. It is a Chrome extension that shortens the page you are on in one click and copies the link. It works the second it is installed. Or use the form below: it needs no account either.
Works right here, no install
Paste a long link, get a short one.
No account. The link is made by a public shortening service, straight from your browser. It opens the page at once: no ads, no preview page.
That's three links today on this page.
The extension has no daily limit and shortens the page you are on in one click, with nothing to paste. It is free.

Steps
Install and pin
Add the extension to Chrome and pin its icon to the toolbar. There is no welcome form and no login.
Click the icon
On any page, one click shortens the address and copies the short link. Or press Alt Shift S.
Paste the link
It is already in your clipboard. That is the whole product.
Compared with a shortener built around accounts
| URL Shortener | Shortener with accounts | |
|---|---|---|
| Account or sign-up | No | Yes, before or after a few links |
| Steps to a short link | One click on the page | Open the site, paste, shorten, copy |
| Free quota | No quota in the extension | A monthly limit on the free plan |
| Click statistics, own domain | No | Yes, on paid plans |
| Tracking of you | None, no server of ours | Tied to your account |
Good to know
- No account means no dashboard either: there are no click statistics, no branded domains and no QR campaigns. If you need those, a service with accounts is the right tool.
- Three public shortening services are used: is.gd, da.gd and spoo.me. All are free and work without sign-up. You choose which one comes first.
- The short link opens the page straight away, with no ad and no preview page in front of it.
- The history of your last fifty links stays in your browser and can be cleared in the settings.
- Nothing is tracked: no analytics, no trackers, no server of ours.
Questions
Is this an alternative to Bitly?
If all you need is a short link without signing in, yes. It does not offer what Bitly sells: branded domains, click analytics and campaign tools.
Why do other shorteners ask for an account?
Their business is the dashboard: analytics, custom domains and team features live behind a login, and the free tier is limited to bring you there. This extension has no dashboard to sell.
Is it really free?
Yes. No account, no limits in the extension, no paid tier.
Can I use my own domain?
Not in this version. The extension does one thing: a short link in one click.
No account, no sign-up, no limits in the extension.
