Scout is not a self-serve marketplace. We do the UGC sourcing and creator sourcing work ourselves, personally curating each creator for your campaign and bringing only the strongest-fit options to your brand. For creators, we only work with trusted brands and fair compensation.

Our Story

Here is Our Story

We're three international students from Duke and Johns Hopkins who previously built a social app called Dayli. Through our own content and UGC, we generated over 15m+ views across platforms.

But as both creators and founders ourselves, we quickly realized how broken the UGC hiring process was.

As creators, we know the stress of working with untrusted brands and arbitrary pay. As founders, we know signing the right creators is massively time-consuming.

But the worst part? Negotiations. Because there's no real trust on either side.

So we built Scout. Not an agency. Not a marketplace. The trust layer for both the best creators on the market who demand clarity and the top companies seeking explosive, RELIABLE growth.

Questions, answered

The things brands and creators always ask

No platform fee, no creator database to browse, no payments running through us. Here is exactly how Scout works on both sides.

See all FAQs
What does Scout actually do?
Scout sources and vets UGC creators for brand campaigns, runs the outreach, negotiates the rate, and introduces confirmed creators directly to the brand. Our role ends at the introduction: we don't produce or review campaign content, manage the creator relationship afterwards, or monitor campaign performance.
How much does Scout cost?
There is no platform subscription and nothing to pay upfront to use Scout. You pay a small flat fee only for the UGC creators you actually sign. The specific pricing, payment terms, and committed services for your engagement are set out in a signed service agreement, and invoices are issued directly by Dayli Inc.
Do you pay the creators for us?
No. Scout does not process or facilitate payments between brands and creators — those arrangements happen directly between you and the creator, outside of Scout.
Can we browse your creator database ourselves?
No, and that's deliberate. Creator profiles are visible only to Scout's internal team and are never publicly searchable. You receive a creator's profile and contact information once that creator has been confirmed for your specific campaign.
Is Scout free for creators?
Yes. There are no fees and no commission taken from your rate — you keep 100% of the rate we negotiate on your behalf.
Do I need a big following?
No. Follower counts and engagement metrics are not used to restrict which campaigns you can see or apply to. We look at your content, your niche, and your fit for the brief.
