Link widget
Use the Link widget to embed any web-hosted resource via its URL — an article, a Notion page, a Figma file, a Loom video, a SaaS dashboard, a live demo environment. Anything that lives at a URL.
Why a dedicated widget? Mental shortcut. Many users think "I have a link" rather than "I have a video that happens to live at a URL". The Link widget matches that intent — paste a URL, get a nicely framed embed, move on.

How to add
- On the floating build bar at the bottom of the editor, click or drag Link — it sits in the primary widgets row.
- Drop it onto the target section.
- The Add link picker opens automatically, with three tabs — New (paste the URL and, optionally, a Label), From this room, and From library.
- Set the layout and captions from the selection pill (see below).
If you leave the Label empty, it defaults to a readable name derived from the URL (the last path segment, or the host). You can change it any time from Edit content.
The selection pill — Link controls
Click the link to select it. The pill mirrors the Image widget pill, plus an S / M / L layout group:
- Ask AI (gradient AI mark) — start an AI thread anchored on this link.
- Open (expand icon) — opens the URL in a new tab.
- S / M / L — three layout buttons; the active one is highlighted. They also set the block's width and height.
- Edit content (settings icon) — opens the Resource details popup with the link's URL, label, captions and the Replace link action (see below).
- Design (paint bucket icon) — opens the contextual Design panel (Layout & corners / Spacing / Background / Border / Effects).
- ⋮ More — Duplicate · Delete.
There is no Dark-mode or Expand-on-click chip. In the rendered room, clicking a link card opens the URL in a new tab.

S / M / L
The layout buttons control how the link preview and its text are arranged:
- S — compact row: a link icon alongside the label and the URL. Good for a link-list of references.
- M — a preview panel alongside the label (side-by-side).
- L — a large preview card (hero look — great for case-study links with a quote).
Edit content — the Resource details popup
Open via the settings icon on the pill. Same fields as the Image / Video / Document widgets, plus the URL:
- URL — the destination (links are the only resource type that expose this here).
- Label — the link's title, shown inside the card (always displayed, so there's no Shown / Hidden switch on it).
- Description (optional) — a short secondary line, with a Shown / Hidden switch.
- Add a quote — quote text (with a Shown / Hidden switch), author name, author photo.
- Replace link — reopens the picker so you can swap the URL without losing your captions or design settings.
- Cancel / Save.
Replacing the link later — preserve the design
When swapping to a new URL for a new deal, replace the URL inside the existing widget instead of deleting and re-adding. All design settings and caption content stay intact.
Link vs. CTA
- Link widget — reference material or a secondary resource. Usually paired with a preview.
- CTA widget — a styled call-to-action the buyer should click (book a meeting, sign, download a specific file).
Use Link for reference; CTA for conversion.
