✦ Our story

Built to bring order
to influencer marketing

I3lany was born from a simple observation: influencer deals in the Gulf were broken. No contracts, no escrow, no accountability — just DMs and hope. We're fixing that.

The problem

Influencer marketing
was a mess

Before I3lany, every influencer deal in the Gulf came with the same four problems.

📵

No contracts

Deals were done over DMs. No written agreement, no defined deliverables, no revision limits. Either party could walk away with no consequences.

💸

Creators weren't paid

Brands would ghost after receiving content. Creators had no legal recourse and no escrow protection — just an unpaid invoice and lost time.

🕵️

No creator vetting

Brands had no way to verify follower counts, content quality, or audience authenticity. Fake influencers were a real and expensive problem.

🗂️

Chaos at scale

Running more than one campaign meant spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and missed deadlines. There was no central place to manage everything.

Our answer

I3lany solves every
one of those problems

We built a complete platform — not a marketplace, not a directory. A full end-to-end system.

Admin-verified creators

Every creator is reviewed by I3lany admin before being approved to the platform. We verify social accounts, follower authenticity, and content quality. Brands only see real creators.

Auto-generated digital contracts

When a brand accepts a creator, a structured digital contract is automatically drafted with both parties' terms, video count, revision limits, delivery dates, and payment schedule. Both sign in-app.

Escrow payment protection

Brand funds are held securely via Stripe. Creators receive 50% on signing and 50% on final approval — never before work starts and never after brands vanish. Both sides are protected.

Full campaign management

Post campaigns, review applicants, track deliverables, request revisions, and manage payments — all from one dashboard in the I3lany app. No spreadsheets. No WhatsApp groups.

Dispute resolution by I3lany admin

If a disagreement arises, either party can open a dispute. I3lany admin reviews the contract, the submitted content, and the communication — then mediates a fair resolution.
