Great local content,
lit up on demand.
Businesses post an Ember — a paid content shoot with a clear brief and a reward they set. Nearby creators claim it, shoot it, and deliver on deadline. Free to join on both sides.
Free accounts · No subscription · $75 minimum reward
For Businesses
Skip the agency retainer. Write a brief, pick your deliverables, set the reward, and get a local creator on site within days. Approve the work and it lands in a content library you own — with usage rights on file. Recurring schedules keep your calendar full automatically.
For Content Creators
Stop cold pitching. Open the map, see what's paying near you, and claim the shoots that fit your week. Every Ember shows the reward, the brief, and the deadline before you commit — and you keep 100% of the reward you see.
One marketplace. Every local shoot.
No cold pitching, no chasing invoices, no agency retainer. Ember handles the brief, the deadline, the rights, and the money.
Local by design
Every Ember is tied to a real address, so the creator shooting your business is already in the neighborhood.
Four steps. Zero back-and-forth.
