− BravoDM is a deal desk for creators who work with brands. It keeps every brand deal in one place, helps the creator charge what their audience is worth, and helps them get paid on time.− 1. Deal pipeline: every brand deal lives on one board with its price, the posts the creator owes, and the due dates.− 2. Pricing copilot: BravoDM checks each offer against the published pricing model for the creator's follower band, niche, and typical views, shows the math in plain words, and drafts the counter reply.− 3. Payment chasing: BravoDM watches invoice due dates and drafts a polite reminder when a brand pays late. It also tracks how many days each brand usually takes to pay.− 4. Public rate-card page: each creator can publish one page at bravodm.com/card/<their-address> with their packages and prices (seeded from the same pricing model, then their own to edit), plus their own link blocks above the packages, so the one address can serve as their whole bio link. A brand's inquiry through that page becomes a real deal in the creator's pipeline, with the budget, usage needs, and timeline attached. Free, like the rest of the desk core.− 5. Find brands and Tailor my matches: a catalog of brands with public creator programs, with a pitch draft for each brand (the creator copies it, opens Instagram, and sends it herself; BravoDM never sends). Tailor my matches optionally ranks the catalog against the creator's recent posts, from captions she pastes or, when connected, her Instagram posts.− ## Instagram DM automation (later phase)− A later phase adds help inside Instagram DMs. It will run on Meta's official API only: people message first, replies stay inside Instagram's 24-hour messaging window, AI drafts wait for the creator's approval, and a human can take over any thread at any time. No password bots, no cold outreach, no broadcasts. Before the 24-hour window closes, the deal moves to email, so the conversation never dies with the window.− Status, October 2026: in approval at Meta, business verification in review. DM automation is not live yet.− The Find brands catalog: 571 brands with public creator programs the brands run themselves, checked October 2026; 474 are ready to pitch in the app today.
