When a post gets traction on YouTube with at least 10K likes, pay $2 per 1,000 likes, up to $200 per post, up to 5 per creator. Open on Jan 2 until Dec 1, 2026 to YouTube creators with any socials.
Everything a creator program needs
Groups, bounties, paid collabs, submissions, and an earnings ledger, in one workspace your whole team can run.
Organize creators, then put them to work
Invite creators by email or a join link, and sort them into groups like tiers or audiences. A creator can sit in as many groups as you like. Post a bounty as one sentence: what earns a reward, what it pays — a flat amount, a product, or a rate per 1,000 views — how often, and who can see it. Target it at the right groups and every creator in them gets an email.
Paid collaborations with real numbers
Set a fixed amount or a min to max range that you agree on at approval. Pick which socials creators must connect for the collab, and see live follower and subscriber stats from X and YouTube before you say yes.
Review, approve, and pay out
Creators submit a link or a file. You approve, request changes, or reject with a note. Approved cash rewards land in an earnings ledger, and paying is one confirmation: CollabPal charges your card or bank account and sends each creator their money through Stripe. Both sides see what is owed and what has been paid across every program.
One creator account, many programs
Creators sign up once, keep a shared profile, and join any workspace's program. On your side, a command palette, keyboard shortcuts, and data tables with CSV export keep a growing roster manageable. Email notifications cover invites, new bounties, decisions, and payouts.
How CollabPal works
From empty workspace to your first paid creator in three steps.
Create your workspace and invite creators
Sign up, name your workspace, and invite creators by email or share a join link. Creators join with one account and connect their socials.
Group them and post a bounty or collab
Organize creators into groups like tiers or audiences. Build a bounty from dropdowns: pay on approval, or pay automatically once a post on X or YouTube hits a view or like count, flat or per 1,000 views.
Review submissions and pay out
Creators submit a link or file. Approve, request changes, or reject. Approved rewards land in the earnings ledger, and one confirmation pays everyone out through Stripe.
Questions, answered
Everything worth knowing before you invite your first creator.
CollabPal is a creator-program platform for startups. You invite creators into your workspace, organize them into groups, post bounties and paid collabs, review what they submit, and pay them through Stripe. Think of it as partner programs, but for creators. It is also an MCP server, so an AI agent can run the whole program for you.
A bounty is one sentence you build from dropdowns: what triggers a reward, what it pays, how often, when it runs, and who can see it. A submission bounty pays for work you review and approve. A social-metrics bounty pays once a creator's post reaches a view or like count. Rewards can be a flat amount, a product, a min-to-max range agreed at approval, an amount you enter yourself at approval, or a CPM rate per 1,000 views or likes with an optional cap per post. Options that make no sense together never appear.
Every kind of bounty you can build →Yes. Set a CPM reward: a dollar rate per 1,000 views or likes, with an optional cap per post and a limit on how many posts each creator can be paid for. CollabPal reads the post's numbers from X or YouTube and works out what is owed, so you are not checking screenshots.
How to pay creators per 1,000 views →Yes. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. Startup is $99/mo with $5,000 in creator payouts per month, Advanced is $299/mo with $20,000, and Enterprise is custom. Add a card up front, cancel anytime before the trial ends and you are not charged.
Yes, but only one. A creator signs up once, sets up a shared profile, connects their socials, and can then join any workspace's program through an email invite or a join link.
Yes. One creator account can be in many programs at once. Creators see every program, bounty, collab, submission, and payout in one place and switch between programs without separate logins.
Payouts run on Stripe, inside CollabPal. Creators connect a Stripe account once and manage their own bank details, so you never handle them. On your side you save a payment method to the workspace: a card or a US bank account. Approving a submission adds the reward to that creator's ledger as owed. When you're ready, select who to pay, confirm the total, and CollabPal charges your method and sends each creator their money through Stripe. Payouts are in USD, from $0.50 per creator, and creators are emailed when they are paid. Card payments go through right away; bank debits take a few days to settle. Anyone who has not finished Stripe onboarding is skipped, not charged for.
How payouts work with Stripe Connect →X and YouTube connect with live follower and subscriber stats, and those are the two platforms whose per-post views and likes CollabPal reads for social-metrics bounties. Instagram and TikTok are handle-only for now. For collabs, you choose which socials creators must connect so you can see their stats before approving.
No. CollabPal charges one flat subscription per account, however many workspaces you run. What you agree to pay a creator is what they get.
Yes. CollabPal is an MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT, Grok or any MCP client can run your program: inviting creators, posting bounties and collabs, reviewing submissions and paying creators out. Create an API key under Settings, point your agent at it, and it can do everything you can do in the dashboard, with the same permissions. Keys can be limited to one workspace, made read-only, or given an expiry.
Create an API key under Settings, Account, API keys, then add the server at https://www.collabpal.com/api/mcp over Streamable HTTP with the key as a bearer token. In Claude Code that is one command: claude mcp add --transport http collabpal https://www.collabpal.com/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <key>". A downloadable agent skill in the same settings section teaches an agent how the tools fit together.
Run your creator program from Claude →No. There is no roster to browse and no matchmaking fee. You bring the creators you already work with, or recruit your own with a join link, and CollabPal is where you run and pay the program.
