Elido

Elido is a URL shortener built for compliance-conscious teams. Where Bitly, TinyURL, Rebrandly, and Short.io optimise for marketing breadth, Elido optimises for EU-resident infrastructure, audit-grade observability, and a hot path you can self-host.

If you are looking for the marketing site, that lives at elido.app . This is the developer reference.

What you’ll find here

• Getting Started — sign up, create your first link, hit the API.
• Authentication — Personal Access Tokens, Workspace API Keys, OAuth2.
• Errors — error envelope, status codes, retry semantics.
• Rate Limits — per-token, per-workspace, per-IP limits.
• Webhooks — operational events and the SIEM firehose.
• SDKs — first-party clients for TypeScript, Python, and Go.
• Self-hosting — Helm chart, dependencies, sizing.
• API Reference — interactive OpenAPI playground.

Tier separation

The redirect path is split across three subdomains so the free tier can never poison the reputation of paid tiers in Gmail / Outlook spam filters:

The portal (elido.app) is the same regardless of tier.
