If you already post on Instagram or TikTok and want to earn from it, landing paid brand collaborations with Insense is a natural next step. Insense is a marketplace that connects creators with brands looking for authentic UGC, letting you choose which campaigns to take and build a steady stream of paid work in one app.
How Insense Works
Insense is a brand-collaboration marketplace for Instagram and TikTok creators. You apply by downloading the app and uploading a portfolio of UGC videos that show you can speak on camera or do voiceover with good technical quality. Insense looks for creators with a real audience, so the platform generally expects around 1,000 Instagram followers or roughly 500 median TikTok views with steady engagement. Once you are accepted, you browse available campaigns and pick the brands you want to work with. You can create UGC without ever posting it to your own feed, receive free products through PR gifting, grow your reach when brands boost your content as ads, and tap into affiliate revenue on top. More than 20,000 creators have joined, and the platform has paid out over $8 million to date. You manage messages, deadlines, and payments all inside the app.
