Short answer

How can I make branded short links using my AI?

Tell your agent to shorten a URL using one of your specific domains. It will use your BL.INK account to generate a branded link instantly. You'll get the final URL and a breakdown of how it works.

The end results

What you get from your request

Your AI handles the technical steps and gives you the final link.

LINK

A branded short link

The AI uses your domain to turn a long URL into a short, branded one. You get the finished link to copy and use immediately.

DOMAIN

Available custom domains

Your agent checks which custom domains you have connected to BL.INK. This ensures you use the correct branding for your link.

STATUS

Creation confirmation

The AI confirms the link was successfully created. You'll know exactly which domain was used for the shortened URL.

HUMAN

Manual domain setup

The AI cannot add new custom domains to your BL.INK account. You have to set those up in your BL.INK dashboard first.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for a link.

The AI interacts with your BL.INK account to bridge the gap between a long URL and your brand.

  1. Identify your domains

    Your agent looks through your BL.INK account to see which custom domains you own and can use for branding.

    list_domains

  2. Shorten the URL

    Once you pick a domain, the AI sends the long URL and your domain choice to BL.INK to create the link.

    shorten_link

  3. Verify the link

    The AI checks that the request went through and prepares the final branded URL for you.

    shorten_link

  4. Deliver the result

    The AI provides the shortened link in the chat so you can grab it and go.
