How UNCUT works

Five steps. Zero middlemen.

01

Brief

A brand posts a campaign brief with its budget. Upfront, in the open.

02

Match

Creators apply or are invited. Every profile is audited and scored for engagement quality.

03

Contract

Terms are signed in app. Both sides know the deal before anything moves.

04

Escrow

The brand pays the full campaign value into escrow upfront. Funds are held, not promised.

05

Paid

On approval, the creator is paid. Then both sides rate each other.

The market is moving direct

India's influencer spend is compounding. The middle is shrinking.

₹4,500 to 5,000 cr

Estimated India influencer marketing spend by end of 2026

₹3,000 to 3,500 cr

Estimated spend in 2025, with roughly 40 to 50% growth in a year

Tier 3 → 1

Smaller cities are the growth centre, with lower campaign costs

Fee transparency

Every fee. Visible. Upfront.

Full transparency. Both sides see every rupee, every time. Before the campaign, not after the invoice.

UNCUT fee

Shown upfront on every campaign, before anyone commits to anything.

Platform fee

Visible to both sides before a contract is ever signed.

Brand funds

Paid into escrow upfront. Released to the creator on approval. And only then.

The middleman

There isn't one.

Creators keep more when the middle is gone
