GoLinks

Short names for the places teams go every day

GoLinks replaces long web addresses and scattered bookmarks with short, memorable links that a team shares and types straight into the browser address bar. A link such as go/drive or go/github opens the resource directly, and the same short form works in chat, email and conversation. The company says the idea is to remove the steps between a person and the information they need, at the scale of a whole organization.

Link types

Not every link behaves the same way, and the product offers several types to match. There are standard shared links, personal links, unlisted links, links that carry a variable so one name can reach many pages, and links that offer several destinations. Teams choose keywords that make sense to them, which the vendor says means fast recall without hunting through bookmark folders.

Dashboard, tags and analytics

A dashboard lists the links in a workspace. Commonly used links rise toward the top and tags help colleagues discover relevant ones. Workspace analytics show how links are used, and the company provides a calculator for estimating return on adoption. A browser extension makes the links work across common browsers, and an API and integrations connect the service to the tools a company already uses. The vendor also compares the hosted product with open source alternatives.

Knowledge discovery

The current site presents the product as knowledge discovery supported by generative AI, with an assistant called GoAI. Its aim is to let people retrieve and share internal information in seconds and to break down knowledge silos between departments.

Who it is for

The company lists uses in departments from engineering and IT to marketing, sales, HR, design and support, as well as remote teams, and says it serves both enterprises and start-ups. It stresses secure rollout and offers an on-demand demo.

GoLinks is a platform for creating short, memorable internal links, known as go links, that teams type straight into the browser address bar. Instead of hunting for bookmarks or long addresses, staff reach shared resources with a simple keyword.
