The task

Brands and creators want reach through short clips. Clippers cut videos and post them on their own accounts. Voterbase brings both together and pays per 1,000 views. Chris Carl knows this world as CEO of Rack48. Together with him, we are building Voterbase as a venture of its own.

What we built

  • The platform with campaigns, credit and billing per 1,000 views.
  • Payouts to clippers via Stripe, with the system’s own bookkeeping.
  • Login with passkeys and a review of every account and every submitted clip.
  • The duties of a marketplace: identity verification, a reporting channel under the Digital Services Act, tax data export.

What it achieved

Voterbase is in testing, with access by invitation. Payments still run in test mode.
