I revived turl.ca this week. It turns long, messy URLs into short links you can actually trust: every destination is checked for malware and scams before anyone clicks, and a link always points exactly where you set it.

I built it for developers and agents too — you can create and manage links from your own scripts or an AI assistant via a REST API, an MCP server, and an OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
