Journey

How the workflow is designed to move.

1

Apply with your platform and profile

Curators begin with an onboarding flow that captures their platform type, audience, and public identity.

2

Pass review and build reusable presets

Once approved, curators can create structured offer templates instead of rewriting the same workflow repeatedly.

3

Discover artists and deliver inside the platform

Messages, submissions, offers, payouts, and proof of work all stay tied to the same system.

Outcomes

What gets stronger once the workflow is connected.

Clear earning workflow

Offer templates, approved transactions, and payout history create a more stable curator experience.

Verification standards

Approval, profile review, and public-facing accountability help artists understand who they are working with.

One operational shell

Submissions, saved artists, presets, messages, and wallet activity are designed to work together rather than compete for attention.

Why it is structured this way

Platform rules, economics, and product logic.

Approval

Curator access is reviewed, not automatic.

The platform protects the marketplace by checking curator profiles before the strongest workflow features are opened up.

Presets

Reuse strong offer logic once you are approved.

Preset and verified coverage tools help curators scale quality without relying on copy-paste outreach.

Payout clarity

Transactions and payout history stay visible.

Curators can follow work status, earnings, and approval outcomes from the same product surface.
