About

Short links, done honestly.

Hoist is a link shortener built on a simple idea: the basics should be generous, the pricing should be fair, and nothing should ever get between your link and the person clicking it.

Why we built Hoist

We’d spent years shortening links with the tools everyone reaches for — and kept hitting the same walls. The useful features sat behind upgrades. The price never quite matched what we got back. The whole experience felt stuck a decade in the past.

So we built the shortener we wanted for ourselves: genuinely generous on the free plan, priced honestly, and built to get out of your way — and out of your audience’s. No ad pages. No upsell maze. No holding your click history hostage.

Hoist is the result.

What we believe

Clean by default

Every hoist redirects straight to its destination. No interstitial ads, no preview pages, no exceptions — on every plan, including free.

Honest pricing

A real free tier, flat pricing that never punishes you per seat, and no maze of add-ons. You always know exactly what you’re paying for.

Your data, kept

Your lift history belongs to you. Generous retention on every plan, so the numbers behind your links are there when you need them.
