Compare NowWhat Makes vitelnk Different
Four things every competitor either can't do or puts behind a premium plan.
You need per-link access control
Every share link on vitelnk can have its own password, expiry date, and one-time access setting. No other platform does per-link controls at this granularity at this price.
You want individual viewer tracking
See exactly who watched, how far they got, and what they clicked — per viewer, not just aggregate totals. Add named recipients and send each person a personalised invite link.
You're tired of ads and public recommendations
YouTube and Vimeo push competitor content after your video ends. vitelnk is a clean, branded player with no ads, no recommendations, and no distractions.
Pricing that doesn't penalise growth
Most competitors charge per video, per seat, or gate features at $79+/month. vitelnk includes everything from $12/month — no video count limits, no per-user pricing.
The Features Competitors Charge Extra For
Included in every vitelnk plan — no add-ons, no per-seat pricing.
