Who Made This
Tidy Go Links is built by Free Code Collective — a group of ex-big (and small) tech employees who build free, open-source versions of tools we ♥.
Why we built this
We worked at companies that had go links and they were one of our favorite internal tools. Type go/vacation instead of hunting through bookmarks. Type go/okrs to find company OKRs. go/[myname]-[yourname] for all of your 1:1 notes documents.
When we moved to new companies, we wanted that same experience — simple go links. But the existing solutions weren't free and had features we didn't need. So we built our own go links tool — the way we think go links should be: fast, no frills, and free.
Open source
This project is fully open source. If you want to contribute, fork it, or build your own go links product on top of it — go for it.
Free Code Collective is a community of developers who believe the best tools should be accessible to everyone. We build and maintain open-source projects that solve real problems — no venture funding, no freemium traps, no strings attached. Just good software, freely available.
Type go/ then a space in Chrome's address bar. Start typing a link name and it autocompletes. Hit enter and you're there.
Smart suggestions
The extension learns which sites you visit and nudges you to create go links for pages you use often. Less hunting, more flow.
Create links instantly
Click the extension icon on any page to create a go link for it. Pick a short name, save, done. No need to open the dashboard.
Browse your links
Search and browse all your go links from the extension popup. Copy links to share with teammates in one click.
How it works
Install the extension, sign in with your Tidy Go Links account, and you're set. The extension intercepts go/ URLs in your browser and redirects them to the right place — just like at Google, Meta, or Stripe.
It works on any website. No VPN, no DNS configuration, no IT department required.
Privacy first
The extension only activates when you type go/. It doesn't track your browsing, inject scripts into pages, or phone home. All your data stays in your Tidy Go Links account. The code is open source — see for yourself.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Tidy Go Links.
What are go links? ▾
Go links are short, memorable URLs that redirect to longer destinations. Instead of bookmarking https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1a2b3c..., you create go/budget and share that with your team. They originated at Google and are now used at most major tech companies.
Is Tidy Go Links really free? ▾
Yes. Tidy Go Links is 100% free and open source. There are no paid tiers, no feature gates, and no usage limits. We built this because we wanted go links at every company we work at — not just the ones with big budgets.
How do I set up go links for my team? ▾
Sign up with your work email. Tidy Go Links automatically creates a workspace for your domain, so anyone at your company who signs up joins the same workspace. Then install the browser extension and start creating links. No DNS changes, no IT tickets, no configuration required.
Do I need the browser extension? ▾
The extension gives you the best experience — type go/ directly in your browser's address bar and it just works. Without the extension you can still use the dashboard to manage links, but you'll navigate to them from the dashboard instead of the address bar.
Which browsers are supported? ▾
The extension is available for Chrome and any Chromium-based browser (Edge, Brave, Arc, etc.). Firefox support is on our roadmap. The web dashboard works in all modern browsers.
Can I use go links for personal use? ▾
Absolutely. When you sign up with a personal email (Gmail, Outlook, etc.) you get a personal workspace. It's great for organizing your own bookmarks with short, memorable names.
Who can see my go links? ▾
Go links are visible to everyone in your workspace. If you're on a company workspace (e.g. @acme.com), all Acme employees who sign up can see and use the same links. Personal workspaces are private to you.
Is my data safe? ▾
We take privacy seriously. We don't track your browsing, sell your data, or inject anything into pages you visit. The extension only activates when you type go/. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Read our full Privacy Policy for details.
How is this different from GoLinks, Trotto, or other tools? ▾
Most go link tools charge per user per month and bundle features many teams don't need. Tidy Go Links is free, open source, and focused on doing one thing well: short links that work. Check out our comparison page for a detailed breakdown.

Have you used go links before?
We worked at companies that had go links, and we built this service to replicate what we loved about them — fast, simple, no frills.
If you want frills, check out GoLinks.io or Trotto — we've tested them and they're great. This service is for folks who worked at companies with go links and know that no-frills-go-links is the way to go (pun intended).
Which company did you use go links at?
This is an honor-code thing — we don't enforce it in any way.
