A two-sided marketplace pairing restaurants with vetted food creators, with payments held in escrow until content goes live.

Challenge
The problem we set out to solve
Restaurant influencer deals are usually informal — unclear terms, unverified audiences, and payment chased after the fact. Both sides needed a structure they could rely on without hiring an agency to manage it.
Solution
How we approached it
A Next.js marketplace on Vercel where restaurants post a brief in about a minute and creators are ranked by audience overlap and content quality. Funds sit in escrow until a post is published, then reach is measured back into a report.
