peekin vs beacons.ai
for adult creators.
A creator business platform that happens to include a link page. Same nine checks on both. Repeat them yourself.
Nothing a crawler can read: no destination, no preview card, not indexed.
We cannot show you a number, and the honest reason is partly ours. Beacons sits behind bot management that checks whether a client is really the browser it claims to be, and our scanner is a server, so it is turned away with a 403. Point a real browser at the same page and it loads normally. We could dress our scanner up to get past that, and we are not going to, because the whole basis of these pages is that you can repeat what we did.

What beacons.ai does better
- By far the biggest feature set: a store, email marketing, courses and memberships, appointment booking, and a media kit that updates itself from your live follower numbers.
- A genuinely usable free tier, funded by taking nine per cent of what you sell, with the fee dropping to zero on the thirty dollar plan. That is a cleverer pricing model than ours.
- Challenging traffic that is not really a browser is a reasonable thing to do, and most do not bother.
Their pricing: Free, then $10, $30 and $90 a month, from their own pricing page. The free tier takes nine per cent of anything you sell; the thirty dollar plan takes none. Ours: £3.99, £9.99, £19.99 a month, and £39 for three creators. Seven days free, then monthly, no contract, cancel any time.
What you get here instead.
- A number you can check. Ours is 100 and you can verify it in ten seconds.
- They allow a link out to adult work if you switch on a sensitive content notice, but their store bans selling anything adult and their email rules ban sending it. If the money is the point, that is the gap.
- Built for one problem rather than fifteen, with the age check and the crawler radar in it.
The honest verdict
The only page in this comparison we could not score, and we would rather say that than publish a guess. If you are running a whole creator business rather than protecting one link, beacons is a more complete product than ours.
Moving from beacons.ai.
Is peekin a good beacons.ai alternative for adult creators?

Can I move from beacons.ai to peekin?
Yes. Paste your beacons.ai address into Import your page in the dashboard and we build a draft from it: your name, picture, links and social icons. Check it, put it live, then swap the link in your bio. It goes live straight away on a shared address. Bring your own domain free, or buy one here, whenever you like.

Will moving stop Instagram restricting my account?
No. It fixes the link in your bio, which is one of five causes we have measured.
