Why run it here, not by DM
Influencer marketing usually sells reach: views, likes, a saved story. You cannot tell whether anyone acted on it, and the numbers that prove it come from the creator's own screenshots. a quiet counter measures the outcome a food brand actually cares about: a cook. Because the recipe lives inside a planner people open every week, every figure comes from the app's own event stream, not creator-supplied images.
For every deal you can see how many people saved the recipe, added your product's ingredients to a real grocery list, cooked the dish, and came back to cook it again, broken down per ingredient and scoped to each campaign. Engagement measured by cooking is structurally hard to fake: a grocery add or a repeat cook is not something you can bot the way you can a like.
Running a creator campaign yourself means spreadsheets, DM threads, and trusting screenshots for proof. Here you brief a shortlist, negotiate in a deal room, approve the content, and read verified metrics in the same dashboard. You pay the creator's rate plus a flat 15% platform fee, only when a campaign runs: no subscriptions, no retainers, no minimums. Escrow is being built so campaign funds are held until a creator delivers; until it launches, we manage payment on every campaign personally.
