Paste any URL and Eddyter automatically generates a rich preview with image, headline, and description — no manual formatting needed.
Eddyter's Link Preview feature turns plain URLs into rich, clickable preview cards automatically. Paste any link into your content and Eddyter fetches the title, description, and preview image — then renders it as a clean, share-ready card inline. No HTML, no manual metadata, no design work.
The same kind of link unfurling you see in Slack, Discord, LinkedIn, and Twitter — built directly into your editor.
Most rich text editors leave URLs as bare links — a string of text in blue, easy to ignore, hard to scan. Eddyter takes the opposite approach.
When you paste a URL, Eddyter:
The result is content that reads like a curated feed instead of a wall of hyperlinks. Readers see what each link actually points to before clicking.
Every link preview card automatically includes:
og:title or <title> tagog:description or meta descriptionog:image (with fallback handling)Eddyter handles the metadata fetch, image rendering, and fallback logic so you never see a broken card.
Link Preview isn't a plugin, browser extension, or third-party widget. It ships with the standard Eddyter editor on every plan, including Free.
For developers integrating Eddyter into a SaaS app, that means:
Setup details are in the Eddyter Documentation. New to the editor? What is Eddyter? is a 2-minute walkthrough.

For most teams, the choice comes down to: ship every blog post and doc page with bare hyperlinks, or ship them with rich cards that actually get clicked. Eddyter makes the second option the default.
Reference articles, papers, and external sources without dropping engagement. Readers see context before deciding whether to click out.
Link to API references, third-party docs, or external tools cleanly. Each linked resource carries its own context.
Embed product page links, case study URLs, and pricing references with rich preview context — far more credible than bare links.
Make every linked article scannable. Readers know what each link is before tapping through.
Link to external documentation, status pages, and references with full context for the reader.
The same link unfurling that works on LinkedIn and X works inside your content too.
Bare hyperlinks have been a content-design relic for a decade. Modern readers expect:
Link previews turn every external reference into a visual content unit. Engagement compounds.

Paste any URL into your document. Eddyter automatically fetches the page metadata and renders a rich preview card inline. No clicks, no menus.
Eddyter reads Open Graph (og:title, og:description, og:image) tags first, then falls back to standard <title> and meta description tags if Open Graph isn't available.
Eddyter handles fallbacks gracefully. If no og:image is found, the card renders with a default visual treatment so it stays clean and readable.
The preview card styling is part of Eddyter's themeable design system. CSS variables on the .eddyter-scope allow customization — see the Eddyter docs for theming options.

When every external reference in your blog, doc, or proposal carries visual context, readers stay engaged longer, click through more often, and remember what they read better.
Eddyter makes that the default — without HTML edits, external services, or workflow changes.
