Bitly was founded in 2008 by Peter Stern, Todd Levy, Mark Josephson and Mark Ghuneim. A privately held company, Bitly is best known for its URL shortening service. Originally created to shorten links for Twitter, Bitly soon became a link management and analytics platform to help brands measure digital engagement across social, email and mobile channels.
Its core product allows customers to create branded short links, track link clicks and see user behavior through detailed metrics. Bitly’s API integration takes this to the enterprise level, offering custom link management solutions at scale for businesses in any industry.
Today Bitly has millions of customers, including big brands and Fortune 500 companies and is adding QR code generation and security features to make links safer and prevent phishing. Bitly processes billions of links per year.
