Linktree is the default link-in-bio tool. Drawr is a newer one built for people who make things. This is an honest look at where each is better.
The quick answer
- Pick Linktree if you want the most established option, you sell a lot directly through your link page, or you need its many integrations.
- Pick Drawr if you want a page that shows your work instead of listing it, you stream, or you're launching something and want a waitlist on your page.

Where Linktree is better
Linktree has been around for years. Millions of people use it, it connects to many tools, and it has deep features for selling and payments. If your link page is mostly a storefront, that matters.
It's also familiar. Your audience already knows how a Linktree works.
Where Drawr is better
It shows your work instead of listing it
On Drawr each thing looks like what it is. An app shows its icon edge to edge. A video shows its thumbnail. A newsletter issue looks like a cover. Visitors see what you make before they click.
Drawers keep it organized
You group things into drawers like Products, Videos and Writing, each with a brass label. Each drawer can keep its tiles one size, so even a busy page stays tidy. Drawers can start closed, with the tops of their contents peeking out.
It knows when you're live
Connect your Twitch, YouTube or Kick channel. When you start streaming, your page's lamp turns red and an On air drawer slides out with a big Watch now button. When you stop, it goes back on its own. Read more in our guide for streamers.
It's built for launches
Add a waitlist straight to your page, set a card to appear only during your launch, and see which things people spark. See our guide for indie hackers.
Your link looks good when you share it
When you post your Drawr link, the preview is a picture of your drawer: your photo, your best things, and a note about what's new. It updates itself.
Pricing
Drawr is free, and Pro (email signups, your own domain, no badge) is free while Drawr is in beta. Linktree has a free plan and several paid plans. Check Linktree's pricing page for current prices.
