Step one
Unwrap a short link before you open it.
t.co, bit.ly, lnkd.in, youtu.be — paste it. We follow the hops and say fetch or skip. We do not return the page.
Free: first 1,000,000 requests every month. No card needed.
After that, per 1,000 requests (USD): Preflight $0.25 · Hop $0.40 · Pixel $0.15 · Inspect $0.20. POST /v1/event is ingest and is not billed.
$50 CAD/month plan (billed in Canadian dollars): your own production API key and meter; usage beyond the free 1M requests/month is charged at the USD rates above.
01 · Preflight
Paste a short link or any https URL. We unwrap it, then say fetch or skip. We do not return the page.
Free up to 1M requests/month. Get a key to track your own usage.
02 · Agent MCP
Paste this into Cursor or Claude MCP settings. After that, the agent calls preflight_url before it opens a short link. One install — your agent checks links before opening them.
{"mcpServers":{"surface":{"url":"https://nova-otter-delta-cloud.grok.me/mcp"}}}03 · Your hop
https://nova-otter-delta-cloud.grok.me/h/first
Opens a Wikipedia page about redirects. We count the click, not the destination.
Later · if you have a page
Skip this if you don’t. A 1×1 pixel on a site or in an email is the same idea — the client fetches it without anyone clicking.
