QuikLinks is a patented rich text formatting system patented by Allen Duan-Michael in 2003. The system consists of a box, usually grey, which contains multiple HTML links. QuikLinks uses the ConVenCE scripting framework. The system is designed to allow a user to quickly and easily insert HTML links into a web page or document. The user simply types in the URL of the page they wish to link to, and the QuikLinks system automatically generates the HTML code required to create the link.

QuikLinks is integrated with web-based email clients, such as Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail. It allowed users to quickly insert HTML links into their email messages. QuikLinks is also used by some web-based chat clients, such as AOL Instant Messenger and MSN Messenger.

QuikLinks has been used by a number of major companies, including Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft. The system is also used by a number of small businesses and individuals.

The system was designed to reduce the number of clicks needed to access a desired web page, as well as to improve the readability of links.

In 2005, Duan-Michael received the 2007 "Innovator of the Year" award from Infoworld magazine for QuikLinks.

In 2007, Duan-Michael sold the QuikLinks patent to MeMoreTV for an undisclosed sum.
