SLNK vs Dub.co
Dub.co is the modern open-source challenger, popular with developers. But its infrastructure remains on Vercel/PlanetScale in the United States, without CNDP compliance.
Digital sovereignty is our main differentiator. All data stays in Morocco — that's non-negotiable.
Sovereignty
SLNK hosts all data in Morocco with native CNDP compliance. Dub.co stores data in the USA via Vercel, PlanetScale and Tinybird.
Analytics
SLNK integrates funnels, cohorts, heatmaps and multi-touch attribution. Dub.co offers good conversion tracking but no funnels, cohorts or heatmaps.
Platform
Both platforms offer deep linking and SDKs. SLNK stands out with granular targeting (12 Moroccan regions), real on-premise deployment and MAD billing.

Why choose SLNK
Beyond link shortening, SLNK is a sovereign analytics and engagement platform.
Sovereignty and CNDP compliance
Data hosted exclusively in Morocco with native CNDP compliance (Law 09-08). IPs hashed with SHA-256 + daily salt for ALL users, not just the EU. Dub.co stores data in the USA and only excludes IPs for the EU.
Advanced analytics: funnels, cohorts, heatmaps
SLNK goes beyond click tracking with conversion funnels, user cohorts and geographic heatmaps. Dub.co offers a good conversion SDK (@dub/analytics) but does not provide funnels, cohorts or heatmaps.
Configurable multi-touch attribution
3 to 5 configurable attribution models (first-touch, last-touch, linear, time-decay, position-based). Dub.co is limited to single-touch attribution (last-click).
Granular Morocco targeting + real on-premise
Targeting by 12 Moroccan regions (not just by country). On-premise Docker/VM deployment for enterprises. Dub.co offers country-level targeting and self-hosting limited to Vercel.
