    Link Trust Score

    Score any URL for readability and suspicious patterns.

    What signals trust in a URL?

    Users decide whether to click a link in milliseconds based on its surface signals: protocol (HTTPS), domain familiarity, length, and the absence of suspicious patterns like raw IP addresses, punycode tricks, or excessive subdomains.

    A trustworthy short link looks intentional: a recognizable domain, a clean slug, and no random query-string noise.
