Your domain, your slug
Point a custom domain at Beree and every link ships branded. Pick the slug yourself, or take the generated one.

Links should be short. So should the bill.
Beree is a URL shortener. Branded short links, QR codes with scan tracking, click analytics, custom domains. Bitly Growth charges $35 a month for that shape of product.
Free tier: 500 links a month. No card, no trial clock.

The 180 still resolve. They stop being the thing you paste into a group chat.
Eleven characters out: ber.ee/ is seven, the slug is four.

180 in.
11 out.
Seventy-eight characters point at the page. The other hundred and two are campaign tags and an ad network click id. Nobody reads a URL. They read its length, and a long one looks like something that is tracking them, because it is.
Paste your own below. The split between destination and tracking is wherever the first question mark falls.

02 / Redirect one hop, nothing of ours in between
The whole product is a promise you keep in one hop.
Hop 02 / the answer
A redirect, not a detour
No interstitial. No ad page. No "you are being redirected" screen with our logo sitting on it. Your reader never learns our name.

Hop 03 / the write
The click becomes a row
Referrer, country, device, campaign tag. Written once, and yours to take out again as CSV or JSON whenever you ask.
INSERT click ref, geo, device, tag
Hop 04 / the landing
They are on your page
That is the entire job. Everything after this is a question about what the job should cost.

Do it with one link
Five hundred links a month, free, no card. That is enough to find out whether any of this matters to you before money is involved.

03 / Record the click is the product
Short is
the easy
half.
What earns a shortener a place in your stack is the row it writes afterwards: where the click came from, on what device, from what country, under which campaign tag.
Every link gets a QR code and scans are counted the same way. Pick a dimension and the view below redraws.
Rendering: analytics view
Drawn in the browser from placeholder figures so you can see the shape of the view. Not a screenshot, and not anybody's account.

04 / The bill published list prices
You are not paying $35 for a redirect.
You are paying $35 because it arrived as its own line item, next to four other line items that each looked reasonable on the day you signed up.

- Bitly Growththe Beree line$35
- Small-team CRM3 seats$87

$99a month, flat
One price for the Empowered Founders bundle, Beree included. Five seats. Extra seats $19. Or $1,008 a year, about $84 a month, which saves $180. When another product joins the bundle the price does not move.
Prices above are the published list prices of the à-la-carte stack the bundle is meant to replace, as printed on empoweredfounders.com. Beree is the $35 line. The argument is not that Beree is cheaper software than Bitly: it is that a redirect service was never worth its own subscription.
05 / Terms what we will not do
The list is short on purpose.
Every item here is a thing the category does routinely and we have decided against. If one of them ever stops being true, it stops being printed here.
- 01No watermark on anything the free tier produces. Including the QR codes.
- 02No undisclosed rate limit hiding behind the word unlimited.
- 03No pricing behind an email form. It is on the page.
- 04No sales call. There is nothing to negotiate.
- 05No retention flow when you cancel. The button just cancels.
- 06No testimonials we wrote ourselves. You will not find a wall of them here.
- 07No hostage data. CSV or JSON, whenever you ask.
