Profile

I'm an agency guy managing SMS campaigns. Every week, I'm stuck importing 500+ URLs into Excel, shortening them, tagging with UTMs, and exporting. It's mind-numbing.Bitly's API wanted $300/month for this exact workflow. Seemed insane for what amounts to "take URLs → add query params → store them."Spent a Friday night building LinkScale on top of Short.io's infrastructure. The workflow: Upload CSV → System adds UTMs → Download shortened links with tracking.Tech stack: - Next.js + React frontend - Supabase for link history & analytics - Short.io API for the actual shortening (they handle CDN) - No custom infrastructure costsShipped it expecting nothing. Got ~50 free tier signups over 2 weeks.

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

Its current recorded stage is Show HN launch.
