# Invite creators, hosts, and contributors

![Studio for creators: repost into communities, add linkouts for affiliate earnings, and join Quests. Invitations are drafted for you.](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/lnrtvsvr/development/4e392f189232b9334f6688a16aa00169e9174f04-1188x643.jpg)

When you finish, the people who make content for your brand (hosts, employees, creators, superfans) can post into your groups under rules you set, and their earnings are tracked from the first post. Your part takes about 10 minutes.

![Diagram: three columns. Who Octo proposes: hosts and talent from your site and video credits, employees from your directory, and superfans who comment most on your content. They post into your groups as one of three tiers: Host, Contributor, or Member creator, whose posts go through moderation. Tracked from the first post: earnings at the creator share you approve, a creator profile on their posts with your brand kit, and a per-creator report of views, watch time, and earned revenue. Each person posts only into the groups you allow.](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/lnrtvsvr/development/673550fc9708132054a4ff4d2cc50732b4e7b8ac-720x333.svg)
*Octo finds the people who make content for you, each posts into your groups at a tier you approve, and earnings are tracked from the first post.*

## Before you begin

- Groups with posting rights set to "approved creators" (see [Upload your videos or connect your social profile](https://begenuin.com/developers/get-started/any-business/upload-or-connect)).

## What Octo does

![Diagram: six steps in two lanes. Octo: 1, proposes who should post: hosts and talent from your site and video credits, employees from your directory, and superfans who already comment most; 2, gives each a tier (Host, Contributor, or Member creator) and the groups they may post into; Member creators’ posts go through moderation; 3, drafts the invites and a first Quest, a brief with a deadline and a reward, for the group with the least content; 4, proposes the creator share from your plan and model, so earnings are tracked from the first post. You: 5, approve the people, their tiers and groups, the Quest, and the creator share, adding or removing anyone; 6, choose Approve and invite, and creator profiles appear on their posts and the per-creator report starts. Result: creators posting into your groups under your rules, with earnings tracked from the first post.](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/lnrtvsvr/development/993cc20ec0373ea67520869cfb7d9b9e957b47d6-720x896.svg)
*Octo proposes the people, tiers, Quest, and creator share; you approve and invite.*

1. Octo, Genuin's Supervised Intelligence interface, proposes the people who should post: hosts and talent it found on your site and in your video credits, employees from your directory, and the superfans who already comment most on your content, each with a tier (Host, Contributor, or Member creator, whose posts go through moderation) and the groups they may post into.
2. Octo drafts the invites and a first Quest (a brief with a deadline and a reward) that fills the group with the least content.
3. Octo proposes the creator share from your plan and model so earnings are tracked from the first post.

## What you approve

- The people, their tiers, and their groups. Add or remove anyone.
- The Quest and the creator share.
- Choose **Approve and invite**. Creator profiles appear on their posts, the per-creator report starts, and Octo proposes new creators as they emerge.

## Make Octo smarter

- Tell Octo who your talent is and who must never be invited under Brand → Context; it respects both lists when it proposes creators.

**Need help?** Octo is available 24/7 in Brand Control Center (BCC) and on every page of these docs. Ask it in plain language; when the answer needs a person, Octo brings the right account manager, developer, or Ops engineer into the same thread and stays on it until it is solved. Every Business Account owner has this, on every plan (see [24/7 Octo support: how Octo brings in account managers, developers, and Ops](https://begenuin.com/developers/get-started/any-business/24-7-octo-support-how-octo-brings-in-account-managers-developers-and-ops)).

## What you get

- Creator profiles that appear on their posts with your brand kit.
- A per-creator view in **Reports** showing views, watch time, and earned revenue.
- An audit trail of who posted what, which brand safety review relies on.
