Frequently asked questions

What is JTU.ME?

JTU.ME is a free European toolkit that combines three tools usually sold separately: a URL shortener with QR codes, a text pastebin, and a public link-in-bio profile at jtu.me/@username. It is developed in Switzerland and hosted in Europe.

Is JTU.ME a real alternative to Bitly, TinyURL, Pastebin.com or Linktree?

Yes - and it deliberately covers all three categories at once. If you only need a shortener today, JTU.ME replaces Bitly or TinyURL; if you share text, it replaces Pastebin.com or Pastes.io; and for your social bios it replaces Linktree or lnk.bio.

Can I use JTU.ME alongside my current tools?

Absolutely. Shorten a link or share a paste without even creating an account, and keep using your current tools. Many people start with one link and move over gradually.

How does JTU.ME protect my privacy?

JTU.ME runs on servers hosted in Europe, is developed in Switzerland, and does not build an advertising business on your data. Accounts can be secured with two-factor authentication and passkeys.

Why not try it right now?
