Link in bio
Instagram, TikTok, and X still give you one tap. SayHi is what should load: a page with a face, a sentence, and the work — not a vending machine of identical pills.

Short films about ordinary nights
I walk around with a small camera and wait for the steam, the bus lights, the joke someone almost told. Weekly pieces from Los Angeles kitchens and sidewalks.
YouTubeOrdinary Nights — “Steam on 3rd”@riohaleCuts and leftovers@riohaleThe weekly night walk@riohaleNotes from the sidewalkNot a vlog. Not a brand. A stack of three-minute films about the part of the day after the work lights go off and before anyone has decided to go home.
Most link-in-bio tools optimized for adding another URL. That made sense when the job was “put more than one link on Instagram.” The job now is different: the page is often the first designed thing a stranger sees.
SayHi keeps the username habit — sayhi.page/rio — and refuses the stacked button as the default visual. Creator pages are mobile-first because that is where the tap happens.
A link in bio is the one URL you put on Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, or a résumé — a door from a profile that only allows one link into everything else you do.
Buttons are fine for five identical destinations. They are a poor home for a person. SayHi still has links; they live inside a page with type, pictures, and a layout.
The public pages and templates you can look at now are free to browse. Account publishing is the next phase. The product is being built so the free page is already worth sharing.
