Bento

Berlin, Germany

Overview

Bento provides well-designed, responsive link-in-bio pages with widgets that users can resize and reorganize on both mobile and desktop. The platform auto-generates rich previews from added links and offers preview customizations such as last three LinkedIn jobs, recent Instagram photos and latest GitHub projects. Bento lets creators upload media files (including video) and plans to enable in-page content consumption, for example playing YouTube videos without leaving the site. The company is beginning to roll out monetization features, launching donation widgets this week and planning product offerings; initially Bento will not take a cut of donations. Longer-term roadmaps include community-building features and additional commerce tools to help creators earn directly from their audiences. Bento operates in a crowded space that includes Linktree, Beacon, Snipfeed and several others; the team positions the product as a destination rather than a router to other platforms.
