Customize for click-worthy links

Is that bit.ly link too generic for you? Customize it by editing the back-half. Then take it to the next level by upgrading your account and replacing the generic "bit.ly" domain with your own brand.

URL shortening and QR code generation browser extension for Bitly

Enables users to quickly create short, branded links and QR codes from any webpage without leaving the browser, making links more memorable and trackable for sharing

1. User logs into Bitly account via OAuth2 flow. 2. On any webpage, user clicks extension icon or right-clicks a link. 3. Extension calls Bitly API v4 to shorten the URL. 4. Shortened link is automatically copied to clipboard. 5. User can optionally customize the link back-half or generate QR codes. 6. Links are accessible in user's Bitly dashboard.

Target users: Social media managers / Digital marketers / Content creators / Anyone sharing links professionally

main.js is heavily minified (539KB), making detailed UI flow analysis difficult
Cannot confirm if extension displays upgrade prompts for paid Bitly features within popup UI
Cannot verify exact QR code generation implementation details in minified code

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension itself does not contain payment processing, subscription management, or feature gating code. While Bitly as a platform has paid tiers (Basic, Premium, Enterprise) that offer custom branded domains, the extension code shows no direct payment integration or upgrade prompts. The store description mentions upgrading for custom domains, but this is platform-level functionality, not extension-gated.

Confidence: 70
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: Yes
Reason: The extension requires a Bitly account to function. The background.js implements full OAuth2 PKCE flow with Bitly's authorization server (bitly.com/oauth/authorize). The constants file shows a login check function that verifies user?.login && user?.access_token. The API calls to /v4/shorten require Bearer token authentication. Without login, the core shorten link feature is disabled (context menu is explicitly set to disabled until login).
