Built by someone who needed this

I write a newsletter. Every time I sent an issue, I wanted to know which stories actually landed — not which individual link got clicks, but which pieces of the issue pulled weight. No shortener answered that. I built one. trak.sh is the version of that tool that I use every week to make my own newsletter better.
