How OpenCollab Works

🎨 For KOLs

  1. Create a free KOL profile with your social accounts, rate card, and availability.
  2. Browse open campaigns filtered by niche, platform, budget, and location.
  3. Apply with a short pitch, your proposed rate, and relevant portfolio links.
  4. Track every application's status — submitted, viewed, shortlisted, accepted, or rejected.
  5. Accept invitations brands send you directly, or decline if it's not a fit.

🏢 For Brands

  1. Create a free brand profile.
  2. Publish a campaign describing your scope of work, budget, and KOL requirements.
  3. Review applicants as they come in, shortlist your favorites, and accept the best fits.
  4. Or browse the KOL directory directly and invite KOLs who match your brief.
  5. Coordinate delivery and payment directly with your chosen KOLs.

What OpenCollab.id doesn't do (yet)

OpenCollab.id is an MVP marketplace, not a payments platform. We don't process payments, hold escrow, or calculate commissions automatically. Brands and KOLs agree on terms and settle payment directly, through whichever channel they already use.
