$93k bought back over the last 30 days. Fuelled by real demand. Companies paying to reach relevant audiences across the Bitcast network.

The next generation of creator marketing won’t be built on follower counts. It will be built on verified attention.

Please welcome Yorgos to Bitcast. Yorgos recently joined us to help lead the next phase of our creator intelligence - bringing some serious technical firepower with him. Ph.D. in Computer Science specialising in Graph ML. His research has been published in prestigious international conferences associated with organisations such as IEEE, ACM and SIAM, including work recognised among the best papers at the SIAM International Conference on Data Mining. More recently, his work on advanced multi-graph analysis was selected for presentation at Stanford, alongside graph research from teams at NVIDIA, Amazon and others working at the forefront of the field. He has also worked at Los Alamos National Laboratory, one of the US’s major scientific research institutions. So why does all of this matter for Bitcast? Social networks are graphs! Creators, audiences, conversations and communities form enormous interconnected networks. Understanding those relationships allows us to go far beyond follower counts and basic engagement metrics. Who actually influences who? How does information move between them? Who has real influence within a specific niche? And ultimately: which creators are most likely to deliver results for a particular campaign? Graph analysis has been a core part of Stitch3 from the beginning. Yorgos is now helping us push it further, applying advanced Graph ML to build improved ways of identifying influence, understanding communities and matching brands with the creators most likely to reach the right audience. We want to build the intelligence layer that makes creator marketing automated, scalable and more effective than ever before. Yorgos is going to be one of the technical powerhouses driving that forward. Welcome, Yorgos.

Creator marketing breaks down when it scales. Working with 5 creators manually is already a fairly chunky task. Finding the right creators, outreach, negotiating, chasing content, measuring performance and payments takes a lot of time. Do that with 50 creators and it’s basically out of the question without a team. You can use an agency - but they do the same manual work. You’re paying for the admin required - relying heavily on their judgement on who you should work with. There are already platforms that automate parts of the process out there. But automation on its own without the correct intelligence directing it just results in you making bad decisions faster. Bitcast is different. End to end automation combined with market-leading creator intelligence. The end goal isn’t another creator marketing platform. It’s the infrastructure that creator marketing platforms can be built on. A protocol for effective creator marketing at scale.

New customers are great. Returning customers are even better. Over 60% of Bitcast revenue is from returning customers. A strong signal that our services are delivering real value.

Revenue has increased month on month for the last 4 months 📈 👉 bitcast.network/revenue
