# TXTDirect - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `txtdirect.org` ## Description TXTDirect provides a standards-based approach to DNS redirects, using DNS TXT records to define and manage redirect data. Its service is designed to offer a convenient, minimalistic alternative to provider-specific techniques such as non-standard ALIAS records and CNAME flattening, helping users avoid vendor lock-in. With TXTDirect’s hosted service, customers manage redirect information in their own DNS records while the provider handles the global, fault-tolerant backend infrastructure that processes requests. The site invites users to get started with this hosted offering and describes requests delivered through the service. TXTDirect is also an open-source project built on Caddy. Its TXT record specification and backend redirect engine are available on GitHub, allowing the underlying approach and software to be explored and reused. Together, the hosted service and open-source components give users options for implementing DNS-based redirects, whether they prefer managed infrastructure or access to the project’s technical resources. TXTDirect’s focus is on redirect functionality, standards-based DNS configuration, and a lightweight alternative to proprietary DNS provider features. ## Industries - 🖥 Computers Electronics and Technology - 🖥 Web Hosting and Domain Names _(under Computers Electronics and Technology)_ ## Links - [github](https://github.com/txtdirect) ## Logos & icons - logo _(primary)_ — PNG, SVG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/idTPQLe3Uo/w/820/h/164/theme/light/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1791069220839) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Lochmara | #0071bc | accent | | Outer Space | #343a40 | dark | | Athens Gray | #f8f9fa | light | --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
