GATE's AI influencer outreach finds creators on Instagram or LinkedIn, opens every profile, grades it out of ten against your own description and says why. Only creators at or above your bar, 7 by default, hear from you: at most one like, one comment, one follow and one message each, about 36 hours apart, in their own language. Anyone on your do-not-contact list, or already in your inbox, never gets a cold message.
No scrolling profiles for days, no spreadsheet of handles, no copy-pasted DM. You describe the fit once, and your agent finds, grades and reaches out.
A few plain sentences about the creator you want and the one you don't, plus the follower range that suits you, 300 to 30,000 to start. Every account is graded against that description, so changing the shortlist later means rewriting it.
Your agent searches the words and hashtags of your niche, and the followers of competitor or aspirational accounts you name. A source that keeps turning up poor fits pauses for a week, and your own account is always left out.
It opens each profile and grades what it sees: fit with your description counts 40 percent, a real and active account 30, and how likely they are to engage 30. Back comes a score out of ten, a letter grade and a sentence or two on why.
Nobody is contacted unless their score clears your bar, 7 out of 10 when a campaign starts. The ones it passed on stay on the list with their score, so you can see who it said no to.
At most one like, one comment, one follow and one message per creator, about 36 hours apart, and only outside the account's quiet hours. Comments and messages are written in the creator's own language.
You set the bar and the list of people to leave alone. Your agent grades everyone it finds, and the engine keeps the pace human.
The score out of ten a creator needs before anyone contacts them.
A new campaign starts at 7. Raise it and fewer, better-fitting creators hear from you. The rest stay on the list with their score and the reason.
They hold whatever a campaign asks for.
Judged on the profile, not the follower count.
Your description of the right creator is the whole screening rule. Add a line to one campaign when a search needs something extra.
A real photo, a bio with a person behind it, a steady posting style and a sensible follower ratio count for 30 percent of every grade. Spam-looking handles, empty accounts and follow-farm patterns are skipped first.
Out of the box it skips accounts under 300 or over 30,000 followers before any grading, so the work goes to nano and micro creators. Change the range for your brand, or drop either limit.
Comments and messages go out in each creator's own language. Pick a language for a campaign and accounts that post in another one are graded as a poor match.
When a creator scores an A, their followers can become the next place to look, up to ten such accounts per campaign. A hashtag or account with no A or B in 30 tries pauses for a week.
Instagram has no push, so a reply arrives at the next inbox check: every 2 to 3 minutes while a conversation is live, otherwise on the account's own schedule. A setting on each conversation decides whether your agent watches, drafts a reply or answers.
Three ways to find creators and make the first contact, side by side.
| What you compare | By hand in the app | An influencer manager you hire | GATE's influencer outreach |
|---|---|---|---|
| Finding creators | Scrolling hashtags yourself | Their own searching and contacts | Searches your niche and the followers of accounts you name |
| Judging fit | Your gut, one profile at a time | Their judgement | Every profile graded out of ten against your description, with the reason written down |
| First contact | Messages you type one by one | At their pace | At most a like, a comment, a follow and a message each, about 36 hours apart |
| Who is left alone | Whoever you remember | Whoever you tell them | Your do-not-contact list and anyone already in your inbox |
| Contracts and payment | You handle them | Part of the brief, if agreed | Not included: an agreement can go out for e-signing with GATE Sign |
Tell your agent what you sell, who your customers follow and what a good partner looks like. It writes the fit description, you correct it, and every grade and message follows it.
Meet your agentsAI influencer outreach means an AI agent finds creators who fit a brand, checks each one and makes the first contact. GATE's agent searches Instagram or LinkedIn, grades every profile out of ten against the brand's own description with a written reason, and contacts only creators at or above the bar, 7 by default, slowly and in each creator's own language.
That is what GATE's limits are for. Each creator gets at most one like, one comment, one follow and one message, about 36 hours apart, under hourly and daily caps and never in quiet hours. Comments are about the actual post, messages open with something specific about the person, and a comment that pitches is rewritten or dropped, never posted.
GATE's agent searches the words and hashtags of a brand's niche and the followers of competitor or aspirational accounts the brand names. A creator who scores an A can become the next account whose followers are searched, up to ten per campaign, and a hashtag or account that turns up no A or B in 30 screened profiles pauses for a week. The brand's own account is always left out.
GATE grades a screenshot of each profile against the brand's description: fit counts 40 percent, a real and active account 30, and how likely the creator is to engage 30. The result is a score out of ten, a letter grade (A from 9, B from 8, C from 7, D from 6) and a sentence or two on why. Only creators at or above the campaign's bar are contacted, 7 by default.
Smaller creators by default. GATE skips accounts under 300 or over 30,000 followers before grading them, so the effort goes to nano and micro creators, and each brand can change that range or drop either limit. Spam-looking handles, accounts with no posts and follow-farm patterns are skipped before grading too, so they cost no AI turn.
No. GATE writes each message from that creator's own profile, in the language of their bio and in at most 280 characters, opening with something specific about them, with rules against flattery openers, hype and more than one emoji. The brand's sign-off is used only where it fits, and no cold message goes to anyone on the brand's do-not-contact list.
On Instagram, a creator's reply reaches the brand's GATE agent in the chat at the next inbox check, since Instagram has no push: every 2 to 3 minutes while a conversation is live, otherwise on the account's schedule, about every 30 to 60 minutes unless set shorter. A setting on each conversation decides whether the agent stays out, watches, drafts a reply for approval or answers. A reply never spends the daily cap.
GATE has no influencer database, no reach estimates, no payments and no affiliate tracking, and on Facebook it posts but does no outreach. GATE never messages anyone on the brand's do-not-contact list or anyone the account already talks to. When a creator says yes, the agent can send the agreement for e-signature with GATE Sign.
GATE is invite only while GATE Intelligence onboards a small number of businesses at a time. After the invite, a person connects the brand's Instagram account through a card in the chat, so the password never sits in a message. The agent then drafts the description of a good creator and the follower range for the person to correct, and the first campaign starts at a bar of 7.
Invite only while we onboard a small number of businesses.
