Links that embed.
Copy a link, paste a tidy one.
Copy an x.com or instagram link and it pastes dead: no preview, no video. tdy watches your clipboard and swaps in a host that embeds properly, stripping the tracking on the way out.
It works the moment you copy.
No paste-into-a-box, no browser extension, no servers. tdy lives in your menu bar and fixes links inline.
Copy any link
From your browser, a chat app, anywhere. tdy notices the new clipboard contents instantly.
tdy tidies it
The domain switches to an embed-friendly proxy, tracking parameters are stripped, short links resolved.
Paste it clean
The tidy link is already on your clipboard. Paste into Discord, Slack, iMessage. It just embeds.
Small app, thorough cleanup.
Every transform is a toggle. Turn on exactly what you want. Embeds and tracking lead the way.
Embed-friendly proxies
Swaps x.com, instagram.com, tiktok.com and more for hosts that render the video, image and title right in chat apps.
Strip tracking
Removes utm_*, fbclid, ?s=20 and the long tail of analytics cruft from every URL. Per-site rules never touch real content.
Resolve short links
Share-links that hide their destination come back as the real thing; classic shorteners like bit.ly and t.co can be expanded too.
Language tags
Where a fixer supports it, optionally append a language code so the embed arrives translated.
Your choice of proxy
Pick among the active proxies per platform, or set your own custom domain. Your choice sticks across updates.
Always up to date
The provider list refreshes from a maintained source, so a dead proxy is replaced without an app update.
Private by design
Sandboxed, no account, no analytics. App Store label: Data Not Collected. Rewriting happens on your Mac.
Out of your way
Global hotkey, launch at login, per-app exclusions that skip your password manager, one-tap undo.
Everything it cleans, in numbers.
One rule list, refreshed automatically, drives all of it. Copy from anywhere; every kind of junk below is handled before you paste.
platforms fixed for embeds
The fixupx.com trick, done for you on every platform below. Dead x.com, Instagram and TikTok links paste as playable cards.
short-link domains resolved
Expanded to the real destination first, then cleaned like any other link.
tracking parameters stripped
Campaign tags, click IDs and share tokens, plus per-site rules that never touch real content.
more cleanups on the way out
AMP and redirect wrappers unwrapped to the real page. Amazon and eBay item links collapsed to their canonical form. Paywalled articles routed through archive.is, if you turn that on.
Don't like a default fixer? Switch it or set your own, per platform.
Fixers are independent, community-run services, not operated by tdy or the platforms. A fixed link points at their servers; that's what makes the embed work. tdy curates the list, keeps it fresh, and always lets you switch.
Skip the workarounds.
Every other fix for broken embeds has a catch.
Remembering domains
Typing fixupx.com, ddinstagram or vxtiktok by hand, every single time, on every single link.
Discord bots
Need admin on the server, spam a second message under yours, and only work in Discord.
Browser extensions
Only fire inside one browser. Nothing for links you copy from apps, or paste outside it.
Your clipboard stays yours.
tdy is fully sandboxed for the Mac App Store. It rewrites links locally and only reaches the network to refresh its provider list and (optionally) fetch a link preview. No account, no tracking, nothing logged.
Questions, answered.
How much does tdy cost?
tdy is a small one-time purchase on the Mac App Store: no subscription, no account, everything included.
Which chat apps does it work with?
All of them. tdy rewrites the link on your clipboard, so it works anywhere you paste: Discord, Slack, Telegram, iMessage, WhatsApp, email, notes, docs.
What is fixupx.com / kkinstagram, and is it safe?
They're independent, community-run “fixer” services (not operated by tdy or the social platforms) that serve a proper preview card for a post. They're the same links millions paste by hand; a fixed link points at their servers, which is what makes the embed work. tdy ships a curated, auto-updated list of the best fixer per platform, and you can switch any of them, set your own, or turn domain switching off entirely and keep just the tracking cleanup.
Does tdy upload my clipboard?
No. Links are rewritten on your Mac. tdy only touches the network to refresh its provider list, to resolve platform share-links that hide their destination (reddit /s/-style), plus link previews and classic short-link resolving if you turn them on. Sandboxed, no account, no analytics: the App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected.
What tracking junk does it remove?
utm_* campaign tags, fbclid, gclid, X's ?s=20&t=… share tokens and hundreds more, plus per-site rules for Amazon, YouTube, Spotify and others.
Can I keep it away from sensitive apps?
Yes. Password managers and terminals are excluded by default, and you can add any app. There's also a pause (15 min / 1 hour), and a Targets mode that only swaps the clean link in when you switch to a chat app.
Does it change text I copy?
It finds the URLs inside copied text and cleans just those: your words stay untouched, and rich formatted text is left alone entirely.
Tidy every link you copy.
A one-time setup, then it just works quietly in the background.
