Everything Taplink bundles for small businesses — Obsydian is built for creators instead.
Taplink is a long-running, large-scale link-in-bio with over 8 million pages created, built around serving four audiences at once: local services, creators, stores, and everyone else. Its free plan is genuinely generous (unlimited links, custom blocks, maps, QR codes, stats), and paid tiers add a CRM, payment forms, automated emails and a custom domain. It's a mature, feature-dense product — closer to a small-business toolkit than a creator page.
We're biased — but honest.
Taplink's scale and free-tier generosity are real — it's not an empty claim. But it's built to serve local businesses and stores as much as creators, so the design and feature set feel generic rather than creator-first, and it has nothing for protecting the images or video you post. Obsydian is narrower on purpose: a modern, creator-first page with watermarking and automatic metadata scrubbing built in, instead of a CRM and payment-form builder you'll never touch.
