Creator-operations platform · DACH

Campaigns that arrive.

Collavo runs creator collaborations from brief through contract, approval and publishing to payout status — in one system, with safeguards that stop mistakes before they go live.

00 · The problem

Between sheets, inboxes and DMs, every campaign breaks three times.

Most creator collaborations run on spreadsheets, email and messengers. Three things get lost along the way — and all three cost money.

The context

Briefs, versions and approvals scatter across tools that don’t know each other. In the end, nobody can say who approved what, when.

The legal ground

Disclosure, usage rights, proof: what was agreed in a chat won’t survive scrutiny — but the company is still liable.

The money

Budget promised, invoice somewhere, payout eventually. All three sides lack the same view of the same state.

01 · Execution

Publishing is part of the system — not the handover point.

Where other tools end at the spreadsheet, Collavo starts: going live happens from inside the platform, with proof.

  • Instagram and YouTube (incl. Shorts) via the official APIs — straight from the campaign
  • TikTok and native posting: the creator posts, orchestrated with reminders and a live-URL proof
  • Double posts are technically impossible; every go-live is verified
  • Calendar with preflight checks: rights, conflicts, media format, caption

02 · Safeguards

Safeguards that don’t remind — they act.

Checklists can be skipped. Collavo’s gates are server-side: whatever fails the condition doesn’t go live — on any path.

  • Publish gate: approved version + signed contract + valid rights, checked at go-time
  • Ad disclosure per German UWG §5a is enforced server-side — overrides only with a reason, logged
  • AI-generated content is labeled and documented machine-readably (Art. 50 EU AI Act)
  • Every decision, including exceptions, in a cryptographically chained, verifiable history

03 · Money

Money here is a status — not a gut feeling.

From deposited budget to payout after approval: all three sides see the same state. And accounting gets documents that hold up.

  • Budget is deposited per creator with the payment provider before production starts
  • Payout after approval — the status is visible to brand, agency and creator
  • Invoices per German §14 UStG: gapless numbering, sealed, cancellation instead of edits
  • Tax order built in: DAC7 export in the official format, §19 threshold tracking, DATEV CSV

04 · Who it’s for

Three sides, one state of play.

Brands, agencies and creators work on the same dataset in Collavo — each side with its own workspace, permissions and view.

For brands

Run campaigns with ten creators in parallel — without losing grip on legal, approvals or budget.

Server-side gates, explainable matching, a campaign ledger with budget alerts.

For agencies

Roster, deals and client reporting without screenshot nights — and without fear of being bypassed.

Mandates only with creator consent, a deals pipeline, shareable live reports.

For creators

Get paid on time, briefs that hold, order for the tax office — free of charge.

Payout status per deal, contracts in one place, DAC7 records in order.


05 · Plain terms

What we don’t advertise.

A platform that sells safeguards has to start with itself. So here is what Collavo does not do.

  • TikTok is published by the creator — orchestrated and with proof, but not via direct publishing.
  • There is no scraped million-profile database: the marketplace lists only verified profiles that opted in.
  • Conversion tracking needs a small snippet in your shop — it doesn’t measure itself.
  • You won’t see customer logos or invented numbers here. When we show some, they’ll be real.
  • Does Collavo hold your money? No — payments run through the payment provider Stripe; Collavo makes the status visible.

Facts, not badges

  • Database & media storage in the EU
  • Consent management without pre-consent tracking
  • Role permissions resolved per request from the database — never from the token
  • Verifiable, sealed audit history (10-year retention, §147 AO)

07 · Questions

Answered briefly.

What is Collavo?

Collavo is a creator-operations platform: brands, agencies and creators run collaborations from brief through contract, approval and publishing to payout status in one system. Unlike discovery and analytics tools, Collavo executes — with server-side safeguards for disclosure, rights and budget.

Does Collavo really publish itself?

Yes — Instagram and YouTube (including Shorts) are published via the official APIs directly from the platform. For TikTok and native posting, the handoff path applies: the creator posts on their own account while Collavo orchestrates timing, reminders and the live-URL proof.

What does Collavo cost?

Creators use their workspace for free. For brands, Company Pro starts at €149/month; for agencies, Agency Pro at €299/month; Enterprise tiers with extended controls are €399 and €699/month. All prices are public on the pricing page.

Can Collavo be used GDPR-compliantly?

Collavo is built on an EU data path: database and media storage sit in the EU, the website’s consent management loads no tracking scripts before opt-in, and there are export and deletion concepts. A data-processing agreement (DPA) is available on request.

Does Collavo hold my money?

No. Payments run through the payment provider Stripe: the campaign budget is deposited there per creator before production starts and paid out after approval. Collavo does not hold funds — the platform makes the state visible to everyone involved.
