Within the early links category you will also find channels for each release. The **#kith** is where you can find all early links for kith, as kith doesn't accept keywords for botting. 

## Early Links with Variants

Variants allow you to target **specific sizes for a specific product**. These variants are the numbers in the image below. If your bot has variant support, you can input these to have an even quicker checkout than when using a link,

Using an early link allows your bot to **precart** the product and setup the checkout for you. Once the stock goes live on the size then you will instantly go to processing and attempt to checkout.
