Context

Creativ Linc is a platform connecting creative professionals with premium brands. It simplifies the messy, high-friction world of project management and payments—whether you’re a fashion photographer or a luxury label.

Problem

Hiring creatives and delivering work isn’t the hard part—it’s:

  • Chasing invoices

  • Late payments and ghosted deliverables

Brands need structure. Creatives need clarity (and to get paid on time).
