Two Friends, One Question, and the Birth of a New-Age Influencer Marketing Platform

Noida, India: Every professional, at some point, stands at a silent crossroads. One path offers comfort, stable income, predictable growth, familiar routines. The other demands courage: uncertainty, pressure, and no assurances. In 2023, two friends, Sourav Banerjee and Pranay Kumar, chose the latter.

Both had spent years working deep within India’s marketing ecosystem, closely observing how brands, agencies, and creators interacted. On the surface, the industry looked impressive: high-budget campaigns, polished decks, and influencer collaborations that generated buzz. But behind the scenes, a recurring gap became impossible to ignore. Brands were investing heavily, yet outcomes often failed to justify the spend. Engagement looked good on paper, but conversions told a different story. Influencer selections lacked relevance, and marketing decisions leaned more towards billing than impact.

This disconnect raised a simple but powerful question: If influencer marketing holds so much potential, why isn’t it delivering real value consistently?

That question sparked a series of late-night discussions, honest debates, and practical brainstorming sessions. Over time, a shared belief became clear, when executed with integrity, strategy, and transparency, influencer marketing could become a genuine growth driver rather than a superficial exercise. Fixing what was broken meant stepping out of comfort zones and building a solution from scratch.

Leaving behind stable roles and familiar titles, the duo chose entrepreneurship with nothing but experience, belief, and the resolve to do things differently. Soon, two like-minded professionals—Harshika Kumari and Anubha Tiwari, joined the journey. More than colleagues, they were partners who shared the same values: ownership, ethics, and a strong desire to build meaningful work.

What started as a small remote team spread across different parts of the country slowly evolved into a structured operation. Strategy calls turned into actionable plans, plans into live campaigns, and campaigns into measurable results. The vision finally took a formal shape on 1st September 2023, marking the official launch of the platform.

From day one, the focus remained clear, transparency over theatrics, performance over presentations, and respect for every rupee a brand invests. The goal was never to be just another agency, but to introduce a more honest and accountable way of doing influencer marketing.

Today, the platform stands as one of India’s largest influencer marketing ecosystems for bulk micro and nano creator activations, engaging nearly 10,000 creators every month. By working closely with micro and nano influencers, it enables brands to reach Gen Z audiences with authenticity, relatability, and scale, without unnecessary complexity.

Rooted in Dhanbad and built remotely before going national, the journey from a small team to a growing industry presence has been swift. Yet, for the founders, this is only the beginning. The long-term vision is to become India’s most trusted influencer marketing partner, known for ethical practices, measurable outcomes, and campaigns that genuinely create value.

At its core, the brand represents more than marketing. It stands for worth, ensuring that every collaboration delivers impact, builds trust, and leaves brands confident about where their money is spent.
