Key Purposes the Platform Can Be Used For
Working Process Scheme
The Business Model
The platform is developed in the form of the hybrid business model, functioning as a SaaS solution (offering the subscription payment model) and the exchange model (payment for a particular service or an activity).
Currently, the platform’s development team is actively working on the implementation of analytical tools that allow tracking activities and a deep, real-time efficiency analysis of every performed action. After launching the beta version of the platform, they also plan to introduce the following payment features:
CPM – cost per thousand impressions – payment for 1000 impressions of a certain information block (news, video, post, etc.).
CPE – cost per engagement – payment for 1 active interaction (like/repost/ share/comment).
CPV – cost per 1 view (for YouTube video).

The Key Positioning Points
Key Advantages
A) For a company, brand, startup
The infrastructure of the platform allows maximizing future profits by increasing brand awareness through the coverage of a new audience. Moreover, the platform helps by mitigating risks, conducting automatic tracking of influencer’s activities with the ability to filter and target tasks only on the quality accounts.
The platform reduces operating costs. Traditionally the launch of the bounty and influencer marketing campaigns is very costly in time and financial resources. Working with our platform, there is no need to hire additional staff or pay for expensive services of specialized agencies. Full automation of the system allows for significantly reduce costs, both for an advertiser (bounty host) and for the platform (allowing us charging smaller fees).
Automatic calculation of activities and results of the performed actions. The representative of the company has no need to hire a separate staff of managers to track activities and perform steaks/payments distribution, as the system performs the automatic tracking of all actions, monitors key indicators (ROI, CPA, see further, the «Analytics» section), automatically distributes the funds on a pre-established plan of the budgeting and allocation.
b) Benefits of the platform for bounty hunter/influencer
Verification of the companies. This alleviates a common industry problem: non-payment of funds/steaks to a bounty hunter. Even responsible projects might not collect, for example, a company might not receive the required amount of funds during an ICO campaign, and they might have to cancel any further business activity. In the end, hunters lose their time and money. To avoid these issues, our platform uses verification of the companies by performing an overall project audit, making an evaluation of the project team, assessing media presence and the feedback from the audience, and a preliminary assessment of a business model.
Automatic payouts after completion of the campaign or one of its stages: the platform helps avoid a delay in payments. On our platform, the payout happens automatically and immediately after the end of the campaign or one of its stages. In the personal profile, every influencer can evaluate the result of his own activities. A dashboard with key indicators of an account demonstrates the actual amount of funds earned.
Escrow fund and escrow conditions: Every company that works with our system signs the escrow agreement with each influencer this is done automatically through the integrated blockchain functionality and issuance of smart contracts. Deposited funds will be paid to influencers (for more details see “The tokenized model”).
C) Benefits to the industry as a whole
Because of the integrated tools for assessing the quality of influencer accounts and every performed action, the influencers are required to create more engaging and interesting content (to increase the number of views and CTR), which stimulates the industry as a whole and increases the quality of the information field in this niche.

Escrow Conditions
Escrow of allocated funds also allows securing the work of influencers, guaranteeing payment from the side of the host. Our platform solves a major problem of the industry: the dependence of an influencer on the persons who take the final payment decisions. In our case, an influencer doesn’t interact directly with the manager of a startup, but with the platform that deposits funds, thus guaranteeing the safety and final payouts.
