Add Your Alee Chatbot to Linktree & Link-in-Bio

Put your Alee chatbot on Linktree and link-in-bio pages that block scripts using a hosted chat link, QR code, or redirect button.

Linktree, Beacons, Bio.link and most "link-in-bio" pages don't let you paste a <script> tag, so the usual one-line Alee embed won't load there. The good news: you don't need the embed at all. Alee gives every bot a full-page hosted chat you can link to like any other URL, which means it drops into Linktree, an Instagram bio, a YouTube description, or a WhatsApp status in seconds. This guide covers every way to get your chatbot in front of a bio-page audience and which one to pick.

Why the script embed doesn't work on bio pages

The standard Alee install is a single <script> line that renders a chat bubble on your own website. Bio-page builders are walled gardens: they only let you add "link blocks," not raw HTML or JavaScript. So the bubble has nowhere to mount.

The fix is to stop thinking about a bubble on a page and start thinking about a link to a chat. Alee hosts a standalone chat page for each bot at its own URL. You share that URL exactly like you'd share a YouTube video or a Calendly link. Visitors tap it and land in a clean, full-screen conversation with your bot, branded the way you set it up. No code, no plugins, works on every bio platform.

Get your bot's hosted chat link

Before you add anything to Linktree, grab the link.

  1. In your Alee dashboard, open the bot you want to share.
  2. Find the share or install area (the same place that shows your embed script). Alongside the script you'll see the public/hosted chat URL for that bot.
  3. Copy that URL. It points to the full-page version of your bot — the same brain, persona, welcome message and starter questions you've configured, just on its own page instead of as a bubble.

If you haven't built a bot yet, start free, add a knowledge source (a website URL, a sitemap, a PDF, a YouTube video or pasted FAQ text), and let it train. Every bot gets a hosted link automatically — even on the Free plan.

A quick test before you publish: open the link in a private/incognito window on your phone. You should see your bot's name, avatar, welcome message and starter questions, and you should be able to ask a real question and get a grounded answer with sources. If it looks right there, it'll look right from your bio.

Option 1 — Add it as a plain link block (the default)

This is the simplest path and works on Linktree, Beacons, Bio.link, Stan, Komi, Carrd and the rest.

  1. In your bio-page builder, add a new link or button block.
  2. Paste your bot's hosted chat URL as the destination.
  3. Label it for intent, not feature. "Ask me anything," "Chat with my AI assistant," "Get instant answers," or "24/7 support" pull more taps than a bare "Chatbot."
  4. Save and reorder it near the top — chat blocks do best above the fold.

That's it. Tapping the block opens your full-screen Alee chat.

Make it look native

  • Add an icon or thumbnail. Most builders let you attach an image to a link. Use your bot's launcher image or your red-cat-style avatar so it reads as "talk to me," not "external site."
  • Pin it. If your builder supports featured or pinned links, feature the chat so it sits at the top.
  • Use animation if available. Linktree's "animate" toggle on a link draws the eye to your chat block without extra design work.

Option 2 — QR code (for print, packaging and IRL)

A hosted link isn't only for screens. Because it's a normal URL, you can turn it into a QR code and put your chatbot anywhere a phone camera can reach.

Where creators and local businesses use this in India:

  • Gym walls, studio reception desks and class schedules.
  • Restaurant tables, menus and takeaway packaging.
  • Event standees, flyers, pamphlets and visiting cards.
  • Product inserts and shipping boxes for ecommerce.
  • The last slide of a webinar or workshop.

How to do it:

  1. Copy your bot's hosted chat URL.
  2. Generate a QR code from it (any free QR generator, or your link-in-bio tool if it has a built-in QR feature — Linktree, for example, can produce a QR for your whole page or individual links).
  3. Print it with a clear caption like "Scan to ask anything about our classes."
  4. Test the printed code with two or three different phones before you order in bulk.

Because Alee serves repeat or similar questions from its cache, a busy front desk or event booth where everyone asks the same five things stays fast and consistent.

Option 3 — Redirect button / micro-landing (when you want control)

If you own even a tiny bit of web real estate — a Carrd page, a Framer or Webflow site, a Ghost blog, a WordPress page, or a one-page HTML file — you have two stronger options than a raw link.

  • Drop the real embed there. On any page where you can add the <script> line, install the normal Alee bubble so the chat floats over your content. Then point your Linktree block at that page. Visitors get your branding and your bot in one place. See the features page for everything the embedded bubble supports.
  • Build a redirect button. Make a simple page or button whose only job is to send visitors to the hosted chat link. This is useful when you want a branded interstitial ("Meet Coach Riya's AI assistant →") or when you want a clean URL on your own domain that you can change later without editing every bio.

The redirect approach also future-proofs you: if you ever swap which bot powers the experience, you update one redirect instead of every place you've posted the link.

Worked example: a fitness creator on Linktree

Say you run a home-workout channel and a small coaching business.

  1. In Alee, you create a bot and train it on your program PDF, your pricing page URL, and three YouTube workout videos (Alee uses the transcripts).
  2. You set the bot name to "FitBot," brand color to your channel red, a friendly welcome message, and three starter questions: "What's in the 6-week plan?", "Do you offer 1:1 coaching?", "Is there a beginner option?"
  3. In the bot's customization, you turn on lead capture so anyone interested in coaching leaves a name and phone number, and you push those leads to Google Sheets via a webhook.
  4. You copy the hosted chat link and add it to Linktree as a pinned block labeled "Chat with FitBot — ask about plans & coaching," with your avatar as the thumbnail.
  5. You also generate a QR code of the same link for the end card of your videos.

Now every reel, Short and pinned comment funnels into one chat that answers questions from your real content and quietly collects leads — no website required. New leads land in your sheet; you can review the conversations and Top Questions later in Alee's analytics.

Tips that make a bio chatbot convert

  • Write starter questions that match bio traffic. Bio visitors are usually deciding whether to buy, join or book. Seed questions like "How much is it?", "How do I start?" and "Where are you located?"
  • Turn on lead capture. A bio tap is a warm lead. Ask for name/email/phone inside the chat and route it to your CRM, Google Sheets or email by webhook.
  • Set the persona for short, mobile answers. In the bot's persona/system prompt, ask for concise replies and a clear next step (a booking or payment link), since most bio traffic is on a phone.
  • Keep training fresh. When your offer or price changes, re-crawl the source or add a new one. Because answers are grounded only in your content and self-checked before sending, the bot won't invent a price you no longer charge — it'll say it doesn't know rather than guess.
  • Use suggested links inside chat. Drop your booking or checkout link into the bot's responses so a question turns into an action.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a paid plan to share a hosted chat link on Linktree?

No. Every bot, including the Free plan's single bot, gets a hosted chat link you can paste into Linktree or any bio page. You'll only need a paid plan for more bots, more monthly messages, or to remove the "Powered by" badge — see pricing for the tiers.

Will the chat be branded, or does it look generic?

It uses the same setup as your embedded bubble — your bot name, brand color, avatar, welcome message and starter questions all carry over to the hosted page. On a white-label plan you can also remove the "Powered by" badge so it looks fully yours.

Can visitors leave their details if I'm only using a link, not the embed?

Yes. Lead capture, webhooks to your CRM or Google Sheets, booking links and analytics all work the same on the hosted chat page as they do in the on-site bubble, because it's the same bot — only the place it appears is different.
