The Free Linktree Alternative That Doesn't Lock the Design or the Stats
Linktree is the biggest link in bio tool, and its free plan covers the basics. Scheduled links, background photos, YouTube embeds and stats on where your visitors come from sit on its $8 and $15 plans. Here's how SumGeniusAI's free Link in Bio compares in 2026, including where Linktree is the better pick.

What You'd Pay Linktree For
Each of these is on a paid Linktree plan and free on ours.
Scheduled Links
Show a launch link at 9am Friday and hide a sale link when it ends. On Linktree that starts on Starter at $8 a month. Ours does it free, along with collections that group links into one tap.
A Page That Looks Like You
Background photos, frosted glass buttons, title fonts and photo shapes are on Linktree Pro at $15 a month. Ours includes them, plus a glow background, button styles and 9 starting themes, free.
Knowing Where Visitors Came From
Linktree shows clicks on each link from Starter, and traffic sources and visitor locations from Pro. Ours shows views, visitors, click rate, sources (Instagram, TikTok, your QR code), countries, devices and each link's clicks, free, with no cookies on your page.
Video and Share Previews
YouTube embeds and SEO settings are on Linktree Pro. Ours plays YouTube videos on the page and lets you set the title, description and image people see when your link is shared, free.
Where Linktree Is the Better Pick
Ours is new and focused on the page. Linktree has been building for years.
You Sell From Your Page
Linktree has a shop, digital products, courses and affiliate links built in. Ours has no checkout. If your page is a storefront, stay on Linktree.
You Collect Emails or Phone Numbers
Linktree's free plan has email and phone sign-ups. Ours doesn't yet.
You Only Want the Logo Gone
Linktree Pro removes its logo for $15 a month. Removing our footer needs a paid ChatGenius plan from $29, which is worth it only if you also want DM automation.
You Need Long Stats History
We show up to 90 days. Linktree keeps 365 days on Pro and all time on Premium, with data export on Premium.
