Lobby Metered
For the creator whose link page keeps getting suspended

The link page that cannot be taken away from you.

Links in, one HTML file out. Put it on your own domain or any static host, with the one-line caption under each button written on our own machines.

Nothing opens in this browser — this one takes a job and does the work on our own graphics cards in Oregon. The free allowance below is how you try it: 20 links, no card and no payment, on the key you are issued.

One file. No account, no dashboard, no subscription, and nobody who can switch it off.

The problem

Your entire traffic funnel is a free account on somebody else's service.

Every link in every bio goes through one page, and that page belongs to a company whose terms prohibit what you do. It works until it does not: the account goes, and with it every link you have ever posted anywhere — all of them pointing at a suspended page, with no way to update a single one. The failure takes your whole audience at once, and it happens to somebody in this industry every week.

One file

Not an account. Not a subscription. A single HTML file you own, that works on your own domain, on any static host, or off a disk — and that nobody can suspend because there is no service behind it.

No tracking

No analytics, no pixel, no third-party script and no font from a CDN. The page loads nothing from anybody, which is also why it is fast and why it cannot leak who visited it.

Per link

Links are metered one each. A caption the word gate holds back twice is left blank and not charged — a blank caption is fine, and a caption that gets your post removed is not.

A caption the word gate holds back twice is left blank.

The captions are the only written part of this product, and the surfaces that will link to the page are the ones that punish wording — a bio link page whose captions read as explicit gets the post that links to it removed. So a caption that twice fails the gate is left blank rather than softened into something that technically passes. A blank caption costs you a line of polish. A caption that trips a classifier costs you the post.

How it works

Links in, file out, host it yourself

List your links

Where you want people to go, in the order you want them. A title and a destination each — that is the whole input.

Captions are written

One line under each button, on Tower 1's own graphics cards, gated for the surfaces that will link here. Where the gate holds one back twice the button stands on its own, uncharged.

Put it anywhere

Your own domain, any static host, a folder on a disk. It is one file with nothing to install and nothing to configure, and updating it means regenerating it — not logging into anything.

What it will never do

What it refuses

This product exists because the incumbents are services. Everything it refuses to do is a thing a service would do.

It is not a service.No account, no login, no dashboard, nothing that renews. We cannot suspend your page because we are not hosting it and never were.
It loads nothing.No analytics, no pixel, no webfont, no CDN, no third-party script. Which means no visitor of yours is reported to anybody, including us.
It will not soften a held caption.Twice through the gate and the caption is left blank. There is no setting that lets a borderline line through because the page looked bare without it.
It does not shorten or cloak your links.Your destinations are in the file as you wrote them. A redirect service is another thing that can be taken away, and a cloaked link is what gets a page flagged.

Pricing

The first 20 links are free, then priced by the link

A link is a button with a caption written for it. Twenty are free on every key, which is a complete link page for most creators — so the common case is that this product costs nothing and you still own the file.

Paid once, per link. There is nothing to renew, and if you never come back the file keeps working — which is the opposite of how the thing this replaces is sold. Your licence key is emailed to you within two working days of payment.

Checkout is our own bitcoin server, not a card processor. The units you buy are added to your key: buy from the Buy more box inside the program and they arrive on their own once the payment confirms, or buy here and paste the invoice number from your receipt into that box.

Questions

The ones we actually get asked

Where do I actually host it?

Your own domain is best, because then a suspended anything never takes your links with it. Any static host will do, and several are free.

The file also opens off a disk, which is a useful way to check it before it goes anywhere.

How do I update it when a link changes?

Regenerate the page and replace the file. Regenerating a page you already paid for is free.

There is no dashboard, which is the trade: you get a file nobody can take away, and the price is that changing it means replacing a file rather than clicking in a web app.

No analytics at all? I want to know what gets clicked.

Not from us. The page loads nothing, which is the promise, and click tracking would break it.

If you host it yourself your own server logs will tell you what was clicked without any third party involved — which is the version of that answer that does not report your visitors to anybody.

Why are the captions worth paying for at all?

They are the part that is slow to write and easy to get wrong, and the gate is the part that keeps them from getting a post pulled.

If you would rather write them yourself, use the free twenty and replace the lines. The file is yours.

What do I actually get when I pay?

A key. One line of text, issued to you and shown exactly once — only its hash is kept here, so it cannot be looked up later and we could not tell you what yours is. Every key arrives with a free allowance already on it, which is the tier at the top of the pricing above, and the work starts the first time you send a job with that key on it.

Each job is metered in the unit named in the pricing, and a unit that fails — a file that will not read, a row the model held back — is not charged and is named in the job report rather than silently skipped. When an allowance runs out the next job is refused before any work starts, with the number it used printed on the refusal.

More units are bought in bitcoin. The checkout is a bitcoin server we run ourselves. Buy from the Buy more box inside the program and the units are added to your key on their own as soon as the payment confirms; buy from the plan buttons above and paste the invoice number from your receipt into that same box. Each payment adds its units once, to one key.

Twenty links is a whole page, for nothing

Build it, put it on your own domain, and the next time a link-in-bio service suspends somebody in this industry it will not be you.
