The record

What it does: Lua shortens links on a user’s own domain and reports click details such as country, device, referrer, and campaign.
Analytics: The product reports country, region, city, device, browser, operating system, referrer, and UTM parameters over any date range.
QR codes: Every link has a QR code, and QR scans are counted separately from clicks.
Link controls: Links can have expiry dates, password protection, and separate iOS and Android destinations.
Workspaces: Users can group links with tags and provide teams separate workspaces with their own domains.
API and agent interface: The REST API covers every action available in the screens, and an MCP server lets assistants manage links and read analytics.
Self-hosting: Lua is open source and self-hostable, and the developer page says it runs on PostgreSQL or MySQL.
Self-hosting responsibility: Self-hosting requires operating infrastructure, including upgrades, backups, and troubleshooting redirects.
Privacy and security: The privacy policy says traffic is encrypted in transit, passwords are hashed, API tokens are stored hashed and shown once, and production data access is limited to people who need it.
Data use: The privacy policy says click events are retained while the link and workspace exist, and that Lua does not sell data or share it for advertising.
Support contact: The privacy policy lists [email protected] for privacy questions and data requests.
Price from: $19/mo
