This is your life right now

The AI creator's dilemma, today.

If any of this stings, AiC was built for you.

The Social Media Trap

You post stunning AI work on Instagram and LinkedIn. Likes, shares, engagement. But zero paid briefs. Your reel has more views than most TVCs, and you made ₹0 from it.

Views ≠ Invoices

Vague Briefs, No Guidelines

When a brand does reach out, the brief is "make something cool." No brand guidelines, no strategy, no clarity. You deliver. Feedback never comes.

Brief Chaos

Payment Roulette

You chase invoices for weeks. Rates get negotiated down after delivery. No contracts. No leverage. No protection.

Unpaid Work Is Not Work

The Spec Ad Loop

You keep making spec ads hoping brands notice. But spec ads don't build your career or your bank balance. Paid brand work does.

Break The Cycle

We pay you as you progress. At every stage. No follow ups.

Every AiC project pays you progressively as you deliver. Not 45 days after completion, not after three reminder emails. Money moves as your work moves. That's our commitment.

What You Get

Real briefs. Real brands. Real money.

AiC is not a gig board. It's a managed creative collective built by people who've spent 15 years on the other side of the brief.

Paid Brand Briefs Only

Every brief is a confirmed, budgeted project from real brands. Our founding team's portfolio spans 50+ brands across FMCG, D2C, auto, pharma, and more.

We Bring the Taste. You Bring the Talent.

We hand you a clear playbook for every brand: what works, what doesn't, what gets the brand manager fired. Brand archetypes, tonality, cultural sensitivity. All handled before the brief reaches you.

Clear, Decoded Briefs

No more guessing what the brand wants. You receive structured guidelines, visual references, tone direction, and exact deliverables. We decode so you can create.

Your Identity, Protected

Clients see AiC's output, not your name. This means no direct client poaching, freedom to work across multiple projects simultaneously, and a diverse creative portfolio without restrictions.

Credit When You Want It

Get credited on case studies and award entries, with client permission AND your consent. Share your AiC project work on your own social channels. Your portfolio, your call.

A Community, Not a Marketplace

Quarterly meetups, tool workshops, first access to new AI tools and beta programs. Top performers advance to higher tiers with premium project access and rates.

Your current role uses a fraction of what you can do.

AiC gives you a space to stretch your full creative range, build a diverse portfolio across genres and formats, and earn from skills your day job never taps. Realistic, cartoon, product viz, cinematic. Explore it all.

Your work speaks. Your identity stays with us.

At AiC, the client sees the output, not the creator. You can work across multiple projects without conflicts, maintain full creative freedom, and focus purely on the craft. We handle client relationships, contracts, and payments. You handle the art.

How A Project Works

Get matched. Create. Get paid at every stage.

Once you're in the collective, here's the flow from brief to bank transfer.

1. Get Matched

We match your skills, region, and availability to a paid brief. You accept or pass.

2. Create

Stills → character lock → storyboard → video. Clear stages, clear revisions, clear guardrails.

3. Get Paid

Money at every milestone. Not at the end. Not after 45 days. As you progress.

Greenlight

AiC notifies you, shares brief + timeline + budget. NDA signed at this stage. You can accept or decline with no penalty.

Stills

You submit 4 to 5 stills based on the brief direction. Visual tone, character design, and colour palette established.

₹ Token Advance

Character Lock

Client approves characters and visual direction. Once locked, direction does not change. This protects your work from scope creep.

₹ Milestone

Storyboard

Full storyboard with 3 to 4 revision rounds. Narrative, pacing, and transitions finalized.

₹ Milestone

Video Draft

Full video rendition with AiC watermark. Watermark protects your work until payment clears. 2 to 3 feedback rounds included.

₹ Milestone

Final Lock

Video locked. Watermark removed. All remaining money transferred. AiC receives final unwatermarked output only after full clearance.

₹ Final Payment

Delivery

Final files delivered in all required formats. Project closed. High performers are prioritized for future premium briefs and rate upgrades.

Who Runs This

Built by people who've spent 15 years on the other side of the brief.
