FAQ
Questions about Distinct, answered.
What the platform does, what it costs, and how creators and brands actually use it day to day.
For creators
Writing and repurposing content, media kits, and running brand deals.
- Do I need brand deals to use Distinct?
- No. The content tools work from day one: ideas, hooks, scripts, captions, and repurposing. The media kit, link in bio, and deal tracking are there for when brands come in.
- What does the AI write, and what does it write from?
- It drafts ideas, hooks, scripts, captions, rewrites for other platforms, and replies to brand requests. It writes from a voice profile you set up once and, if you connect Instagram or X, from your own best posts. You edit, save, or discard every draft.
- Does Distinct post or schedule for me?
- No. Distinct helps you write and keeps the business organised. You post from your own apps. There is no scheduling, publishing, or video editing today.
- What is comment-to-DM?
- Pick an Instagram post, set a keyword and a link, and when someone comments that keyword Distinct sends them the link in a private reply. It is built and being tested with Instagram, and it is not open to everyone yet. It will need a professional Instagram account connected through Instagram Login.
- Which platforms does it support?
- For connected accounts and live stats: Instagram and X today, with TikTok and YouTube next. For writing, no connection is needed: the tools draft for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, and LinkedIn, and can repurpose a post into a newsletter.
- Is Distinct free for creators?
- Everything is free while we're in private beta. After that there will be a free Starter plan and paid plans, shown in the pricing section. We never take a cut of a deal you close.
- Do I control what I take on?
- Completely. AI drafts and suggests, but you accept, counter, or decline every deal, and nothing is sent without you.
For brands and marketing teams
Running roster, campaigns, budgets, and proof of results.
- What does the AI actually do?
- It drafts outreach and follow-ups in your voice, drafts replies to creator applications, and recaps campaign results. You stay in control of everything that goes out.
- Do I need a big team?
- No. Distinct is built for the one person, or small team, running creator marketing in-house, with AI drafting the outreach and recaps so the busywork takes less of the week.
- Can creators come to me?
- Yes. Publish a public profile at your own link and creators apply through it. Screening rules flag or archive off-fit applications before they hit your inbox.
- Can I prove revenue, not just reach?
- Yes. Attach promo codes and tracked links to each deliverable, log clicks and orders, and Distinct shows ROAS and cost per acquisition alongside reach and engagement.
- Can my team share it?
- Not yet. Today each brand workspace has a single owner. Shared seats for a team are planned, and we would rather say so than let you find out after inviting someone.
- What does it cost?
- Free during the private beta. After it, there is a free plan to start and paid plans as you grow. The prices on the pricing section are our proposal and may change.
