Visual planning for Instagram and TikTok
Later grew up as an Instagram scheduler and still thinks in grids: the calendar shows what the profile will look like, not only when things post. Linkin.bio turns the feed into a clickable page. The free plan is gone, so the first decision is whether visual planning is worth a subscription that starts near twenty dollars a month.
Our note
There is no free plan any more, which is the thing to know if you remember the older version. Against Metricool the pricing is per social set rather than per brand, and that comparison turns as soon as there is more than one client.

A link in bio page that takes payments
Taplink builds a small mobile page out of blocks, and the paid tier turns it into something that sells: price lists, order forms, payment collection and a CRM behind them. That is further than most link pages go. The editor and the help text both read as translated, which is a fair warning about who the support team is.
Our note
Against Linktree the comparison is about what happens after the click. Taking a booking or a payment on the bio page is what the $4 buys, and a plain list of links needs none of it.
