Dub is a link attribution platform that combines branded short links, real-time click and conversion analytics, and affiliate/partner program management in one product. Teams create custom-domain short links with QR codes, device and geo-targeting, and deep linking, then track the full customer journey from that first click through to a completed sale. On top of link tracking, Dub runs full partner and referral programs: automated payouts, customizable commission structures, embedded referral dashboards, and partner risk monitoring, with global payout processing that handles tax compliance. It offers a REST API, an MCP server, and SDKs in TypeScript, Python, Go, PHP, and Ruby for teams that want to build link and attribution tracking directly into their own product.
Jira is a proprietary issue tracking product developed by Atlassian that allows bug tracking and agile project management.
Free for up to 10 users; paid plans from about $7.75/user/month.
