Launching Elev8or — A Performance-First Influencer Marketing Platform Built for Startups

Hey Indie Hackers 👋

I’ve been building Elev8or, a performance-first influencer marketing platform designed to fix the chaos brands and creators deal with today. After working closely with startups and creators, I noticed the same problems repeating over and over: no performance tracking, paying blindly for posts, messy DMs, spreadsheets everywhere, and creators not getting the value they deserve.

So I started building Elev8or to solve exactly that.

🚀 What Elev8or does

• Helps brands run predictable, ROI-driven influencer campaigns

• Verified creators with real audience data

• Four campaign modes: hire creators, buy UGC, run performance-based payouts, or launch contests

• Creator payouts, escrow, integrated wallet, anti-spam credit system

• A clean workflow instead of chaotic coordination

🎯 Why I’m building this

Influencer marketing works — but the current system doesn’t. Elev8or exists to bring structure, fairness, and performance into an industry full of guesswork.

🔧 Current status

MVP is built, onboarding creators, and preparing for a phased launch with early brands.
