The only place to find and license content from anywhere on the internet.
Cast a wide search—in our marketplace or on the open web. This isn’t a stagnant library or a managed creator pool. We don’t represent creators, because we believe anyone sharing online is a creator. Our tool is designed to help you explore what’s out there right now, curating real conversations and original content made by real people—then giving you the licensing power to use it. Think of it as organic UGC farming, with the licensing support you need to move fast.

Common questions that come up
Do I pay to sign-up for the platform?
No. It’s free. You can search, save to collections, browse and use Storyboards for a prototype reel. Invite the full team to join. You only pay when you license and clear assets.
Do I search on my own for assets?
Yes, start searching by going to our creator community and check out the suggested keywords. If you need inspiration, take a peek in the galleries that we continually update. Our expert curators can do the search for you, delivered in collections that fit your campaign brief.
Is this a library of pre-cleared assets, ready to use?
No. This is a marketplace and is dynamically changing all the time. New creators join, sync to their socials and new content is added. You select the assets you want and we automate the clearance and license steps. This is not static or pre-cleared and therefore unlike stock providers.
How is the price of a piece of content determined?
Pricing is determined by asset and usage requested. Every asset is different depending on the creator and also how you want to use it. Usage parameters are determined inside the platform when you set up your campaign. Our competitive and fair pricing honors both the creator and you as a brand or agency user.
Making it easy. Keeping it magical.
