Role

Hire your AI influencer manager

Sourcing, outreach, deal terms, and ROI — run by chat, not by inbox chaos.

Your AI Influencer Manager handles the messy middle of creator marketing: sourcing creators who match your audience, negotiating deals that don't get you burned, running campaigns to contract, and reporting on actual attributed revenue. You approve the creators and the contracts; it runs the rest.

What your AI Influencer Manager does

01Source creators each week matched to your audience by category, audience overlap, and engagement quality

04Brief creators with clear hooks, product proof points, and do-not-say constraints
05Track posting compliance, link clicks, promo code redemptions, and revenue per creator
06Build a creator database scored on past performance so the next deal is easier than the last
07Flag reputational risks (audience quality, past controversies) before you sign
08Report monthly on CAC by creator tier, repeat-deal rate, and contribution to pipeline

Workflows on autopilot

Weekly creator sourcing
Every Monday: pulls 50 candidate creators from Modash matched to audience criteria. Scores on engagement, audience overlap, and past brand partnerships. Shortlists top 10 for outreach.
Cold outreach cadence
Three-touch sequence over 10 days. Personalizes off the creator's recent content, not a template. Moves replies to a live negotiation thread for your approval.
Deal negotiation playbook
Opens with your standard terms. Concedes on rate before usage rights, refuses exclusivity without a premium, walks away on whitelisting demands above 30 days.
Creator brief handoff
Builds a one-page brief per creator: hook suggestions, product proof points, claims to avoid, legal boilerplate. Creator signs off in 48 hours or the AI Paid Ads Manager adjusts plan.
Campaign tracking
Monitors posting compliance, promo code redemptions, and attributed signups within 72 hours of post. Flags any creator who misses the posting window or breaks talking points.
Monthly creator ROI review
First of month: produces a spreadsheet of every deal, attributed revenue, CPM vs CPA, and tier assignment. Retires weak creators, double-books top performers.

  • —A creator tanks your conversion rate because you didn't check their audience
With Tycoon
  • ✓Outreach runs daily and every warm reply surfaces in your chat within minutes
  • ✓Every contract terms-checked against your playbook before it reaches you
  • ✓Monthly ROI report shows revenue per creator within one percentage point

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about wallet credit, usage, subscriptions, and how Tycoon charges for work.

Can AI actually negotiate with creators?

It negotiates within your playbook. You define the ceiling on rates, the floor on usage rights, and the non-negotiables on exclusivity. The AI Influencer Manager opens with your standard terms, concedes in the order your playbook specifies, and escalates anything outside the boundary to you within 15 minutes. In practice most deals close in 3-5 email rounds without your involvement. The exceptions — celebrity creators, unusual terms, anything touching legal — come to you with a clean summary of the open issues and the AI's recommendation.

How does it avoid creators with bot audiences?

Every shortlisted creator runs through an audience-quality check before outreach: bot percentage, engagement rate relative to follower tier, audience geography match, comment-to-like ratio. Modash, HypeAuditor, and CreatorIQ all expose these signals via API, and the AI Influencer Manager weights them into a single quality score. Creators below a threshold (typical: 70/100) don't make the shortlist. For high-stakes deals the AI will additionally scan the last 10 posts for engagement drop patterns that indicate recent bot purchases.

What about FTC compliance and disclosure?

The brief shipped to every creator includes an explicit disclosure requirement — #ad placement, caption language, and platform-specific paid partnership tags. The AI Influencer Manager monitors the live posts for compliance within 24 hours and flags anything missing to both the creator and your AI general counsel. This is built into the workflow because the FTC fine exposure is real and the remediation is trivial if caught fast.

Can it source creators in languages I don't speak?

Yes — Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Japanese, Korean, and Mandarin are first-class. The AI Influencer Manager sources creators, drafts the outreach in-language, and negotiates in the creator's preferred language. Contracts still run through your legal review in English (with a faithful translation attached). Campaign briefs are provided in the creator's language. Most founders expanding internationally find this is the single hardest part of creator marketing to outsource to humans and the single easiest to delegate to an AI.

When should I hand a creator relationship to a human?

Three cases. First: top-10% creators who bring in material revenue — those relationships deserve quarterly calls from you or your head of marketing. Second: sensitive categories where the creator needs legal reassurance from a real person. Third: long-term brand ambassador deals beyond 12 months where the relationship itself is the product. The AI Influencer Manager surfaces these cases proactively ('this creator has driven $40K in 90 days, consider a direct call') rather than forcing you to discover them yourself.
