iCollabz – A new platform connecting creators and startups for collabs (no middlemen)

Came across an interesting project recently called iCollabz — it’s a platform designed to help content creators (YouTubers, Instagrammers, bloggers, etc.) and startups/indie founders collaborate directly for paid brand deals.

Unlike traditional influencer marketplaces that often focus only on big names or charge high commissions, iCollabz seems to be targeting micro and nano creators and early-stage startups.

Here's what stands out:

• No middlemen or agency fees

• Both creators and startups can join for free

• Designed for small creators and bootstrapped brands

• Offers direct chat, campaign posting, and deal tracking

It looks like a promising tool for anyone in the creator economy or those trying to get visibility for their product via influencer marketing — especially if you're on a tight budget.

Just thought I’d share for those here who are building or marketing products. Would love to hear what you all think. Has anyone tried something similar?
