I'm Adam, building Outie. It's a link-in-bio app, and yes(really), I know how many of those already exist... I wanted to bring a little emotion to your bio. At least I tried.

There’s a drawing canvas too. Pick your colors, use the pen and highlighter, and paint your own cover. Or upload an image if drawing isn't your thing. I've also built scheduled links, launch countdowns and email signups. You can send someone a…
