Brand deals
Brand deals, from inquiry to paid.
Brands send a brief through your Work with me page, the brief is checked against your rates and rules, and the deal moves from inquiry to paid in one place.
What it does
Briefs checked against your rates
A Work with me page where brands send a brief. It is checked against your minimum rates, the categories you turn down, ad usage and payment terms before it reaches you, and a brand whose brief doesn’t fit reads why.
Every inquiry in one list
Inquiries from the form, a brand’s AI assistant, your Gmail or a DM land in one list. Your assistant fills in the brief from what the brand wrote, and never guesses a budget.
Exclusives checked for you
An exclusive deal you’ve agreed to is checked against every new inquiry in its category.
Codes with end dates
Discount codes with end dates, and a Needs a look list for codes ending soon or posts going out after their code ends.
Sponsor reports
Report links a sponsor can open and print: stats, top posts, link taps and bio views.
From first message to paid
A pipeline from inquiry to paid, with each brand in your contact book and the posts that deliver each deal. Replies are drafted for you to send from your own email.
Offer links
Offer links count taps and code copies. Amazon links are never redirected.
