Conduit vs Linktree
Linktree built the category. Conduit ships link-in-bio + the marketing automation that turns clicks into customers.
Linktree is the original link-in-bio tool — a single page that hosts links from a social media bio.

- →Linktree is the category-defining link-in-bio. Simple, beautiful, free for the basics.

What Linktree does brilliantly
Linktree pioneered the category. The free tier is enough for any creator just starting out — a clean, mobile-first link list under linktr.ee/yourhandle. Pro adds branding and basic analytics for $10/mo. It's the right tool if all you need is the link list itself.
What Conduit adds
A click on a Conduit Link-in-bio page is the start of a flow. The visitor's click event lands in the contact graph (anonymous initially, hydrated as soon as they submit any form). Conduit Flows can: auto-DM them on Instagram if they came from an IG bio click, auto-email them a follow-up, auto-add them to a remarketing audience, auto-segment them based on which link they clicked.
That's not a link-in-bio feature. That's a CRM + automation feature that happens to start at a link click.
Lead capture
Conduit Link-in-bio pages can include inline forms: email-only, email + name, or full lead-gen forms. Submissions land in the unified contact graph and trigger Flows immediately. Linktree Pro supports a basic email capture; Conduit's capture is bundled with the rest of the marketing stack.
A/B variants
Conduit Link-in-bio supports A/B variant pages — same URL, two different layouts, randomized 50/50, measured for click-through and conversion. Linktree doesn't ship this; you'd need Beacons or Hopp.
When Linktree is still right
If you're a creator just starting out and you need a link list, nothing else, and you want free — Linktree free tier is the right tool. Conduit is for operators who want the link page to be part of a larger marketing system, not a standalone artifact.
Linktree alternative — frequently asked questions
- Can I import my Linktree links?
- Yes — Conduit's import wizard accepts a Linktree page URL and scrapes the link list. Branding, custom CSS, and analytics history aren't transferred (start fresh on those).
- Custom domain support?
- Yes — CNAME your subdomain (e.g. links.youragency.com) to Conduit. Free SSL via Let's Encrypt.
- Click analytics?
- Per-link click counts, geo, device, referrer source, and conversion rate (if the link triggers a lead capture). Real-time updates.
- Multiple link pages per workspace?
- Yes — one workspace can host unlimited link pages (think one per campaign, one per client, one per influencer). Growth tier supports custom domains on all of them.
- Does Conduit Link-in-bio sell products?
- Yes — embed a Stripe payment link or a full Conduit Doc (for service businesses). Conversion fires Flow events that can auto-deliver a digital product or schedule a follow-up.
- Mobile design quality?
- Mobile-first by default. Most link clicks come from mobile, so we treat desktop as the secondary view.
- Custom themes / templates?
- Yes — Conduit ships 6 base themes plus full custom CSS for Atelier tier. Linktree Premium has more polished templates out of the box, but less flexibility.
- Migration timeline?
- 10 minutes per page. Most creators do it during a single content batch session.
