Clip sells pay-as-you-go UGC videos. viral.app runs ongoing creator programs.

Clip is a straightforward marketplace for buying UGC videos. Public pricing is per asset, with add-ons for captions, formats, variations, revisions, and premium creators.

viral.app is for teams operating creator programs, not only buying assets. It tracks creator posts, campaign performance, payout rules, and reporting across a live program.

Where teams feel it

The real problem starts after the first creator says yes

Per-video procurement is simple until the team wants creators posting on their own accounts, performance payouts, recurring programs, and reports that compare creators over time.

That work gets brittle in a spreadsheet because the data has to move between people:

  • Growth wants to know which hooks, creators, and formats are worth scaling.
  • Creator ops needs a clean view of who posted and who needs follow-up.
  • Finance needs payout numbers that are not rebuilt from screenshots.
  • Leadership wants a campaign report without asking five people for context.

Creator roster

Track creators as campaign participants, rather than sourcing-list names.

Campaign analytics

Read short-form performance in the same workspace where campaign decisions happen.

Payout logic

Turn performance terms into payout records your team can review later.

We handle the switch

Switching tools should not mean rebuilding account lists, tracking rules, and onboarding notes by hand. viral.app gives teams a white-glove migration path, a personalized onboarding call, a 7-day free trial, and a satisfaction guarantee before the switch becomes permanent.

One more thing: how we handle your data

Private campaign data stays private
Your data is not sold, reused, or shared in any way. With viral.app, all your tracked accounts, tracked videos, creators, and campaign data stay private.

viral.app keeps customer environments separated. Your tracked accounts, videos, creator rosters, payout rules, prompts, search queries, and campaign data are not used to generate results, insights, or AI content for another customer.

We also do not sell your private campaign data. The boring version is the right version here: your workspace data is used to provide the product, support the workflows you asked us to run, and meet legal or payment obligations. For the full policy language, read the viral.app privacy policy.
