[Internet] Batch mode for shortening long URLs
There are a number of utilities on the web that convert long URLs to short ones.
There is a list of such utilities at https://www.lifewire.com/shortening-long-links-3486603
www.Bitly.com
www.Goo.gl
www.TinyURL.com
www.Ow.ly
www.Is.gd
www.Buff.ly
www.AdF.ly
www.X.co
www.Bit.do
www.Mcaf.ee
Unfortunately, in the above utilities you have to enter each URL separately.
And since I have over a thousand URLs to abbreviate, it will take hours for me the complete the task, doing it one-by-one.
I searched, but I have not found a utility that will accept a whole batch of URLs at one time.
QUESTION.
Would you happen to know of one?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Writing a script like this (accessing the API) is a little beyond my abilities.
However I may be interested in hiring someone like yourself to do so.
If you are interested, pls let me know.

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
