Terms used across Kolfly, with the meaning they carry in the product.
Core terms
KOL — Key Opinion Leader. Kolfly's term for an influencer or creator. The KOL Database, KOL Scraper and KOL Marketplace all refer to the same kind of person.
Brand mode — The side of Kolfly for marketers and agencies: finding creators, running campaigns, and buying creator services.
Creator mode — The side for people who make content: building a profile, joining campaigns, selling services, and getting paid.
Workspace — The container for a brand's KOL database, campaigns, members and billing. Brand work happens inside one. Higher plans allow more than one.
Credits — What AI actions cost. Shown on the button before you run the action. See How credits work.
Scraping credits — A separate pool that KOL Scraper spends, made of a free monthly quota plus premium credits you buy. Premium scraping credits do not expire.
Campaign terms
Campaign — A brief that Kolfly ranks your existing KOL Database against, returning a shortlist with a match score per creator. Not the same as Content Bounty.
Content Bounty — An open brief with a budget. Creators find it, post content on their own accounts, and are paid per thousand views. The opposite direction to a Campaign.
Objective — What a campaign is meant to achieve: Brand Awareness, Brand Safety, Conversion, Lead Generation, Revenue Generation or Traffic.
Shortlist — The ranked set of creators a Campaign produces, each with a rank, a match percentage and a summary.
Strategy Guru — The AI chat panel on the campaign screens. Reference documents uploaded to a campaign inform its answers.
Reward per 1,000 views — The rate a Content Bounty pays creators, based on the views their post earns.
Reserved budget — Content Bounty budget locked while the campaign runs. It cannot be spent elsewhere, and any unused portion returns to your balance when the campaign is finalised or cancelled.
Escrow — Money owed to a creator that is not yet withdrawable. It releases 72 hours after the related work is completed.
Finalised — The point at which view counts stop moving and estimated earnings become a fixed payout.
Creator terms
Follower tier — A size band used in search and filtering: Nano is 1K–10K, Micro is 10K–100K, Mid is 100K–500K, Macro is 500K–1M, and Mega is 1M and above.
Niche — A content category on a creator's profile, such as beauty, gaming or fitness. Brands filter by it, so it affects whether you are found.
Verification — Confirming you control a social account, done by placing a code in your profile bio. Required before you can join most campaigns. It cannot be bought.
Storefront — A creator's public page, published at a Kolfly address using a slug you choose. Brands can browse and book services from it.
Service — A packaged offer a brand can book: Buzzer video, Clipping, Endorsement or UGC video. Each can be listed once per creator.
Scope note — The short description on a service that sets expectations about what is and is not included.
Turnaround — Delivery time in days, set by the creator on each service.
