LinkPre vs Linktree — Why we’re building something different

Hi Product Hunt community 👋

We’re preparing to launch LinkPre on Feb 5, 2026, and before launch I wanted to share why we’re building it — and how it’s different from traditional link-in-bio tools like Linktree.

Linktree does a great job at one thing:
putting multiple links behind a single URL.

But while building and talking to professionals, freelancers, builders, and students, we noticed a different problem:

Most people don’t need more links.
They need more trust.

What we observed

Link-in-bio tools mostly:

• Redirect visitors away

• Act as navigation pages

• Don’t explain who you are or why someone should work with you

For hiring managers, clients, or collaborators, that’s often not enough.

What LinkPre focuses on

LinkPre is built as a digital identity / living resume, not a link list.

Instead of only links, a LinkPre profile can show:

• Projects and real work

• Skills, certifications, honors & awards

• Testimonials and embedded X tweets as social proof

• Videos, images, and products

• Experience and customer links

• Calendar to book meetings

All in one structured profile — without forcing visitors to jump across multiple sites.

The core difference

• Linktree: “Where should I click next?”

• LinkPre: “Why should I trust you and work with you?”

Our goal isn’t to replace Linktree — it’s to serve a different use case:
helping people build credibility, win leads, and close more bookings from a single link.

We’re launching on Feb 5, 2026, and I’d genuinely love feedback from the PH community:

• Does this resonate?

• What would you expect from a “digital identity” tool?

• What would make this truly valuable for you?

Thanks for reading 🙏
