How it works

Start with a clear brief. Move each conversation toward the next step.

  1. Choose your role and complete your profile

    Choose Backer after signing in. You can browse first; complete the required details before publishing or confirming a collaboration.

  2. Publish a clear brief

    Describe the objective, deliverables, budget, schedule and references. Confirm acceptance criteria, preview and publish. Saved drafts can be resumed.

  3. Review proposals and discuss

    Compare portfolios, prices and availability on the brief page, then discuss with creators through messages.

  4. Confirm terms and fund the work

    Agree scope, price, stages and rights together. Confirm the project terms and follow funding in your project and wallet.

  5. Review production and revisions

    Review stage submissions against the agreed criteria. Accept work or request specific revisions.

  6. Receive and archive final deliverables

    After the final stage is completed, find the agreed delivery files in Personal assets and the collaboration record in Project center.

After funding: five production stages

Can I browse before completing my profile?

Yes. After signing in, you can browse first. Complete the required profile when publishing, applying or confirming collaboration.

How do personal assets differ from studio assets?
