Beacons → Milkshake
A Beacons alternative that starts from your page
Milkshake is a free Beacons alternative built from the page you already have. It reads your beacons.ai links, photo and colors and lays them out as a site of Cards visitors swipe through. Give it a few seconds, and claim your site if you love what you see.
Your page is at beacons.ai/ followed by your username. We load it the way a browser does, so it takes a few seconds longer than most.

What comes across from Beacons
- Every link, in order
- Each with its own title, as your page shows it.
- Photo, name and bio
- At the top of your first Card.
- The colors you see
- Taken from your page as it appears, then put on the Looks that suit them.
