The Problem

Mobile app founders are manually recruiting UGC creators across Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, and DMs, then coordinating scripts, posting schedules, screen demos, hooks, and payout rules in fragmented channels. The repeated pattern is not just finding influencers; it is managing many low-experience creators who need templates, coaching, consistency checks, and performance-based compensation. This creates operational drag for small teams trying to test organic acquisition quickly.

Potential Solution

Build a creator campaign workspace where app founders create a campaign, upload scripts and demo assets, invite creators, collect application videos/social handles, assign content briefs, and track submissions. The first product can support manual creator sourcing plus structured onboarding, post URL submission, approval states, payout calculation, and performance notes. Later versions can add TikTok/Instagram metrics ingestion, affiliate/referral tracking, and automated creator discovery.

Why Now?

Consumer app teams are leaning harder on short-form UGC and micro-creators because paid acquisition is expensive and organic TikTok/Reels formats can be tested cheaply. The signals show demand from dating, wellness, and general mobile apps with similar creator-management workflows.

Posted: Get Paid to Create

Super easy for creators It’s been just over a month, and I’ve made around $650 just from posting once or twice a day. This is similar to the Noise app if you’ve used that; you just pick a campaign you want to work for (no commitment which I love) and follow the brief they ask for. You can create several different TikTok accounts so that you can post for a few different brands. This is one of the only apps that have paid out for me, and it’s honestly been a
