System Status: Operational

TRAFFIC IS A
PHYSICAL ASSET.

Own it. Self-hosted link infrastructure with <5ms latency. Privacy-first. Zero vendor lock-in. Bare-metal reality.

~ qwynk create --slug=product --link=https://example.com

✔ LINK_CREATED: /product → https://example.com

Slug: product

REJECT THE CLOUD ABSTRACTION

Your traffic is being routed through black boxes. You don't own the data. You don't control the latency. You are renting your own infrastructure.

Latency Tax

Every redirect adds 100ms+ of "cloud magic" overhead. Your users wait while third-party servers handshake, track, and resell their data.

👁

Surveillance Capitalism

"Free" link shorteners are data brokers. They drop cookies, fingerprint devices, and monetize your audience without your consent.

🔒

Vendor Lock-in

When they raise prices or change terms, you're trapped. Your links are their property. Migrating is a broken promise.

THE SOVEREIGN ARCHITECTURE

Built on Elixir, Phoenix, and ETS. Designed for the Hot Path.

01

The Razor Router

Namespace separation eliminates lookup overhead. /_/ for system internals, everything else is a slug. Zero ambiguity.

02

ETS Caching (Hot Path)

Redirects serve from RAM. <5ms internal processing time. Database hits are asynchronous. If the DB dies, the cache lives on.

03

Privacy Buffer

GDPR-compliant by default. No PII storage. IPs are hashed with a daily salt and discarded. Analytics without surveillance.

lib/qwynk/router.ex
defmodule Qwynk.Router do
  # The Hot Path
  def dispatch(conn, slug) do
    case Cache.lookup(slug) do
      {:ok, target} ->
        Task.start(fn -> Analytics.capture(conn) end)
        redirect(conn, target)
      
      :miss ->
        # Fallback to DB, then populate cache
        resolve_from_db(slug)
    end
  end
end
