This is GPT-6 Astra. Anything you can do on a computer, Astra can do for you. Fast.
The roster that makes your launch trend on X
We engineer the X algorithm through the creators your buyers already follow. See every rate up front, book your lineup in one dashboard, and on launch day every link goes out in the same minute.

01The old way
A launch on X is won or lost in its first hour.
We learned that running launches by hand at Gridd. The post was never the hard part. Getting the right creators to post with you was.
That meant cold DMs, rate cards sent as screenshots, a call to agree on the date, and one creator who still posted a day late.
By launch week, the whole plan lived in a spreadsheet.
02The real problem
The creators were fine. The scatter was the problem: rates in one inbox, briefs in another, payment in a third, and no way to get ten people posting in the same hour.
A week of scattered posts feels like more reach. It's less. Ten posts in one hour put your link in front of the same buyers again and again, while they're still talking about you.
A launch is one hour where your link is everywhere your buyers look.
03The fix
So we built goated: one roster, every rate on the page, and one email that tells every booked creator you're live.
Here's a launch on Goated, one pass at a time:

About the roster
There's a reason it's called goated. Every creator page clears the same bar before a brand can book it, and each creator prices 5 formats on their own:

If you've read this far, here's the whole deal in one breath.
Every creator's rate is on the page before you invite anyone. Nobody is paid until their post is live and checked, and then as soon as we can, usually within a few days. Everything between the brief and the payout happens in one dashboard.
You can have a campaign running in five minutes, without a sales call.

How it works
From brief to paid posts in 7 steps, all in one dashboard.
Day 1Step 1: Write the brief
Say what you’re launching, the date and the hour in UTC, and what you want creators to say.
Day 1Step 2: Pick creators
Browse the vetted roster by audience, topic and format. Every creator’s price is on the page before you commit.
Day 1–3Step 3: Send invitations
Each creator gets your brief and date. They say yes or pass. You can also send an offer at a different price, which they accept or decline.
OptionalStep 4: Approve drafts
Ask any creator for a draft. Approve it or ask for changes. Nothing posts unseen.
Before launchStep 5: Pay for the lineup
Pay for the creators who said yes by bank transfer: ACH, wire or international wire. Goated confirms it landed.
- Launch hour
Step 6: Go live
Post your launch. Goated emails every booked creator the link at that moment, so their posts land in the same hour.
After launchStep 7: Every post checked
Creators share their post link; Goated checks each one. A creator is paid as soon as Goated confirms their post is live, usually within a few days.
Questions
What is Goated?
Goated is a vetted roster of creators on X for product launches. A company books the creators its buyers already follow, sees every creator’s rate before it commits, and runs the whole launch from one dashboard.
How much does Goated cost?
Brands pay for access, then for the creators they book. A Launch pass is $149 for one launch; All Access is $299 a month for unlimited launches. Early-bird prices are on right now: $49 for a launch, or $99 for your first month of All Access (then $299 a month). Creator rates are on top and shown before you commit.
Can I see creator rates before I pay for anything?
Every creator’s price is shown on the roster before you invite them, so you know the cost of a lineup before you commit to it.
How do creators know when to post?
When your launch post is live, Goated emails every booked creator the link at the same moment, so their posts land inside the same hour.
What if a creator doesn’t post?
Goated checks every post link after launch day. A creator is only paid once their post is confirmed live.
How do I join the Goated roster?
Claim your X handle at goated.so. Goated reads your profile and recent posts, drafts your page, and you add your audience and your rates. Any account can join, whatever its size: your page goes live as soon as it’s set up, and the Goated team can take a page down. Being listed is free.
Final note
We built Goated for founders who care how launch day lands, because one hour of the right posts decides whether people remember your launch or scroll past it.
If that's you, you won't chase a single DM. That's the promise.
Someday you'll look back at your launch and remember two things: the minute it went live, and the people who posted with you.
We’d love to be part of both.Rooting for you.
