Start Finding Affiliates with AI

The Affiliate Discovery Agent uses AI to automatically search for potential affiliate partners across multiple platforms. Instead of manually browsing through social media and websites, let our agent find relevant creators and influencers for you.

How the Agent Works

Set up your agent once, then run targeted search campaigns to discover affiliates. The AI analyzes content creators across platforms like YouTube, Instagram, Reddit, LinkedIn, and regular websites to find people discussing topics related to your product or mentioning your competitors.

1

Configure Your Agent

Add relevant keywords that describe your product and list your main competitors. The agent uses these to identify potential partners who already create content in your space.

Keywords examples: "project management", "productivity software", "team collaboration"
Competitors: List 2-3 main competitors by name and website

2

Choose Your Platforms

Select which platforms to search across:

  • Websites - Bloggers and content sites
  • YouTube - Video creators and reviewers
  • Instagram - Influencers and creators
  • Reddit - Community discussions
  • LinkedIn - Professional content creators
  • TikTok, Facebook, X, Medium, Substack - Additional platforms
3

Create a search campaign by selecting your platforms. The agent will run in the background and email you when results are ready (typically 3-15 minutes).

Understanding Credits

Each search campaign consumes credits based on your keywords, competitors, and selected platforms. Here's how credits work:

Credit Calculation: (Number of Keywords + Number of Competitors) × Number of Platforms = Total Credits

Plan Allocations:

  • Revenue Pass & Trial: 5 credits per month
  • Launch: 15 credits/month (180 credits/year for yearly plans)
  • Growth: 35 credits/month (420 credits/year for yearly plans)
  • Elite: 50 credits/month (600 credits/year for yearly plans)

Example: 3 keywords + 2 competitors across 4 platforms = 20 credits total

Maximizing Your Results

Start with your most important keywords and platforms. You can always run additional campaigns as you get more credits. Focus on platforms where your target audience is most active.

The agent presents results with contact information, audience insights, and relevance scores to help you prioritize your outreach efforts.
