GoLinks Enterprises Inc. is an American software company based in San Diego that utilizes go/link technology to offer a SaaS product.[3] GoLinks is a link-shortening tool. GoLinks was founded in 2016 by Jorge Zamora and officially launched at Y Combinator's W19 Demo Day 2.[4][5] GoLinks received initial funding from the seed accelerator Y Combinator.
History[edit]
In 2014, Jorge Zamora, a former Yahoo employee, observed the prevalence of go/links during his visits to other tech companies in Silicon Valley. He recognized the potential for improvement and sought to create an accessible solution: GoLinks as a Service. Collaborating with his college friends, Zamora assembled a team and embarked on the development of his own go/links system that would be available to companies of all sizes, not just tech giants.
On August 29, 2016, Zamora released the first SaaS version of go/links. This new iteration of the application went beyond being a mere redirect system. It provided an out-of-the-box solution that could be set up in minutes.
In 2021, GoLinks raised a $27M Series A round led by Anthos Capital, with participation from previous investors, Mayfield and FundersClub.
On December 13, 2023, GoLinks launched two additional products.[6][7][8] The first, GoSearch is a GenAI-powered enterprise search solution. This tool can "be fed with a database of information, such as worker guidebooks, and can dynamically access any information from any part of the database based on humanlike questions."[9] According to VentureBeat, "This technology unlocks the full potential of a company’s collective knowledge."[10]
The second product, GoProfiles, is an GenAI-powered employee directory and peer recognition tool that "allows companies to automatically generate an employee directory based on worker data in their human resources applications."[11]
Features[edit]
The go/links system from GoLinks Inc. offers an array of features, including a Slack application, browser quick search, on-page creation with the extension, DNS public and private entries, and Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions for Okta, G Suite, OneLogin, or custom SSO configurations. The tool supports the ability to create custom redirect URLs, enabling users to define their preferred keyword or prefix for the short link. For example, a team might create a GoLink such as "go/weeklyreport" to quickly access a shared weekly report, or "go/hrportal" to provide access to the human resources portal. GoLinks also provides analytics and reporting features, allowing administrators or designated users to track link usage, view click statistics, and gather insights into user behavior.
In 2023, GoLinks launched a ChatGPT feature allowing users to get instant resource recommendations generated by AI.[12]
Integrations[edit]
GoLinks can be integrated with various existing tools and platforms, such as web browsers, productivity suites, communication platforms, and more. These integrations enhance the accessibility and usability of GoLinks, ensuring users can incorporate them into their daily workflows.
Reception[edit]
After the launch of their iOS app[13] in 2022, GoLinks received recognition through 66 upvotes on Product Hunt in March 2023.[14]
In May 2023, GoLinks received a notable distinction by being named one of Inc.'s Best Places to Work.[15][16] GoLinks was specifically acknowledged as a “Software platform connecting teams to the apps and information they access daily, with human-readable links redirecting to any web application.” In May 2023, GoLinks was also named a Top Collaboration Solutions Provider by CIO Applications.[17]
