About
Proximity Clips of people nearby who have Link — on your phone today, on AR glasses next. Text-only feed, jobs, and Letters.
Features
- Problem
- Nearby professional encounters are easy to miss.
- How it works
- When someone using Link walks by, their Clip can land on the user’s lock screen; glasses can expand a person’s Clip through gaze.
- Result
- Users can decide who is worth approaching before starting an IRL conversation.
- Why
- Turns physical proximity into a contextual introduction while keeping Discovery opt-in.
- Problem
- Cold outreach and face scanning create awkward or privacy-heavy networking.
- How it works
- Users open a nearby person’s Clip to see who they are, then meet them in person; Discovery keeps users invisible until turned on.
- Result
- Networking starts with an informed, consent-based in-person interaction.
- Why
- Provides context for an introduction without relying on cold DMs or face scans.
- Problem
- Professional feeds can prioritize ads and broad algorithmic reach over chosen connections.
- How it works
- The network is text-only, limits posts to 500 characters, has no reposts, and defaults to a chronological Following tab; Discover is optional.
- Result
- A more focused professional feed with less incentive for engagement farming.
- Why
- Keeps attention on people a user chose to follow.
- Problem
- Unverified strangers and message-credit systems can enable spam.
- How it works
- Messaging is uncapped, while stranger DMs require government-ID verification; the blue check represents an ID and matching-selfie check.
- Result
- Members can message without credits while adding verification for unfamiliar contacts.
- Why
- Uses identity verification rather than message quotas as the trust gate.
- Problem
- Paid members may still encounter advertising.
- How it works
- Pro removes Sponsored units and adds profile-view visibility and an extended Clip.
- Result
- Members get fewer interruptions and more context around nearby and profile interactions.
- Why
- Creates a paid, ad-free experience with networking-focused upgrades.
