Beacons AI 2.0 - Beyond link in bio: full stack platform for content creators

Hey everyone—David here, Co-Founder of Beacons.ai. We first launched Beacons Link in Bio on Product Hunt in December of 2020. A lot has changed since then, both at Beacons and in the creator industry. Today, I’m excited to announce the launch of Beacons 2.0, an AI-powered platform that not only gives creators the tools they need to run their business, but uses AI to do work for them. 🚀 ➡️  From 1.0 to 2.0 While building our Link in Bio for over 3 million creators, we realized a common theme: it’s a lot of work to build a creator business, and a lot of it has nothing to do with making content. That’s why we’re going beyond Link in Bio. Today on Beacons, creators can find everything they need to build a business starting right now, with AI-powered tools that scale with them into the future. The new all-in-one platform that we call “Beacons 2.0” consists of our reimagined Link-in-Bio, integrated with native Store, Email Marketing, and Media Kit tools for creators to market themselves and make money. All in one place—with AI features integrated throughout. 🔮 2.0 and beyond: AI for creators Our co-founders met as PhD students at Stanford in AI and machine learning, and we’ve always believed that there would be more opportunities to use AI to help creators. With Beacons 2.0, we’re weaving AI into the platform to help creators at every turn: emails and product descriptions are written in the creator’s tone of voice, image generation is at your fingertips wherever and whenever content is needed, and key information is automatically surfaced. 🤝 Creators and their managers AI is one way for creators to scale themselves, but there are some things that only a human can do. When a creator wants to expand their team, their first teammate is often a manager. And we want to help managers scale and succeed, too. So we launched [Beacons for Managers](https://beacons.ai/i/for-managers): a set of tools specifically to help managers pitch, report, and organize creator data. Beacons for Managers is built on the same data layer as all of the Beacons creator tools, so creators and their managers can work together seamlessly. 🚀 **Creators are the business of the future** We’re already seeing creators and managers succeeding with these new AI-powered tools—we’ve added some of our favorite examples to our new home page, which showcases the entire Beacons 2.0 platform. We believe creators are the businesses of the future, and with Beacons 2.0, we’re building the next-generation platform that this new class of entrepreneur deserves. As a Beacons creator, you can use all the tools for free or upgrade to Pro plans (https://beacons.ai/i/pricing) for advanced features. Get started at http://beacons.ai and let us know what you think. We can’t wait to see what you build! -David

Super pumped about Beacons 2.0. I found the AI onboarding experience pretty magical: by adding my social media links, it automatically crawled my past content to find other related links (like my Amazon shop) and most viral video to showcase on my Beacons page. But what I'm REALLY excited about is its email marketing service. $20 for unlimited email?! That's INSANE. I've never seen a cheaper email marketing service... and it works pretty well too. Not sure if they're going to keep offering this jaw-dropping price, but so far it's definitely a steal :) Keep up the great work!

As a long time user of Beacons (since 2021), Im excited to see all of the new changes and improvements that the Beacons team has put together. The Store is now the cheapest and easiest place to sell digital products online while the Email marketing tool helps creators own their audience which is even more critical in 2023 with platform uncertainty. The future of Beacons is bright for all creators on Beacons! If you aren't using Beacons today, why not?

Much, much needed consolidation for creator tools 👏, it’s such a headache managing all the random software subscriptions and remembering why they were useful 😂 excited about all the new development, what’s the next frontier that the beacons team will tackle?

I'm a user of the original BeaconsAI myself, definitely love it. Congrats on the launch and can't wait to experiment with new stuff!

I really love this product, it's not only appealing to the eye but also very practical! I'm intrigued about how the AI mimics a creator's tone of voice for email and product descriptions - how does it learn and adapt to this?

SO exciting! LOVE Beacons so much!!! So many amazing tools that have been instrumental in my growth and success as a creator!

Beacons is the truth - I've been using the platform for a while now and these updates are truly creator focused - keep innovating team!!

Good product.

Congratulations to Team Beacons AI 2.0 on your Producthunt launch! The evolution of link-in-bio into an AI-driven platform is a leap forward. As a suggestion, it would be great to see an AI powered analytics tool integrated for content creators to better understand their audience behavior. Keep up the great work!
