Introducing Share Kit

Self now gives every published page a Share Kit with polished digital cards, QR business cards, and customization controls for sharing your profile online and in person.

Illustrated Share Kit cards for digital sharing and in-person QR networking.

Publishing a personal page is only part of the job. The next step is sharing it in a way that feels intentional, polished, and easy for someone else to open.

That is why we built Share Kit. Once your Self page is live, you can create a polished card for it instead of sending a bare URL. The card carries your name, description, page link, and visual identity, so the first impression starts before someone even opens the full profile.

Share Kit turns your live Self page into a polished card you can share online, download, or use in person.

Digital cards and QR business cards

Share Kit includes two card types. Digital cards are designed for LinkedIn, messages, applications, launch posts, and direct outreach. Business cards add a clear QR code, which makes them useful for events, interviews, meetups, and in-person networking.

Both card types point back to your published Self page, so you are always sharing one current profile instead of a file that can go stale.

Designed to be personalized

  • Choose between square, vertical, and horizontal formats depending on where you want to share.
  • Switch between digital cards and QR business cards for online or in-person contexts.
  • Adjust background and text colors so the card feels aligned with your page and personal style.
  • Customize the card-only name, description, and display URL without changing the published page itself.
  • Download the card or share a polished promo link through the built-in sharing actions.

This makes Share Kit useful in more places than a normal profile link. You can post a square card on LinkedIn, use a vertical version in a story, send a clean card in a message, or bring a QR business card to a real conversation.

We are so happy to add this layer to Self because it makes the page easier to use in the real world. Your profile is still the destination, but Share Kit gives it a better introduction.
