Beacons

An AI-powered business platform for creators, built around a link in bio.

Beacons is a creator business suite that starts with a customizable bio page and expands into a media kit, digital product store, email tools, and brand outreach. It's aimed at creators who want to sell and get sponsored, not just link out.

Our take

Beacons is what Linktree would look like if it were designed in 2024. For creators who actually sell something, the 0% fee at $30/mo usually pays for itself. For people who don't sell, the free plan beats Linktree's free plan on design alone.

Pros

  • Generous free tier with real commerce built in
  • Pages look cleaner and more modern than Linktree
  • Creator Pro at $10/mo undercuts Linktree Pro by a third
  • AI brand outreach is a genuinely novel feature

Cons

  • 9% seller fee on anything below Store Pro is steep
  • Dashboard can feel cluttered because it tries to do everything
  • Branding only removed at the $90/mo Business Pro tier
  • AI generations are capped on the lower tiers

Features

  • Customizable link in bio with drag and drop blocks
  • Built-in media kit for brand deals
  • Sell digital products and online courses
  • AI brand outreach and AI content tools
  • Built-in email list and automations
  • Appointment booking with calendar sync
  • Real-time analytics with geo data
  • Invoicing and payment collection

Pricing

Free plan includes the link-in-bio, media kit, and unlimited digital products at a 9% platform fee. Creator Pro at $10/mo ($8.33/mo annual) adds a custom domain and more AI. Store Pro at $30/mo drops the platform fee to 0%. Business Pro at $90/mo removes Beacons branding and includes a physical NFC card.

Best for

Mid-size creators who want one tool to handle bio link, digital product sales, media kit, and brand deals without stitching together five apps.

Not for

Casual users who only want a tidy list of links. The feature breadth is overkill, and the upgrade prompts are aggressive.
