Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Siva the solo founder behind Promo. The idea started when I tried to DM an influencer to promote my stall. Got ignored. Not because they were rurude, but because there was no proper bridge between brands and creators. So I built one. I'm 18, studying CS in a small town in Andhra Pradesh, India. Built Promo completely alone while attending classes. No co-founder. No funding. Just a problem I personally faced. Would love your honest feedback what would make Promo better for you? Try it free: promo.arkio.in 🚀

Love the no-agency angle, feels refreshing for smaller brands. One thing that would make it way more useful: add a built-in contract or agreement template feature that creators and brands can sign directly in the chat before any payment or content goes out. Right now there's some trust risk on both sides without that layer, and it would set Promo apart from just being a discovery tool.

How does Promo actually make money if it's free for everyone, or is that the long-term plan once enough creators and brands are on it?
