Brands can now search, hire, and manage Snapchat creators on Collabstr, with over 25% of its 1M+ creators ready to work.

Creator profiles carry Snap's own metrics: views, average view time, returning viewer rate, and CPM. Fixed rates published upfront, escrow protection, local-currency payouts, tax and invoicing handled. Existing creator rosters transfer in, at no cost to the creator.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia - October 5, 2026 - Brands and agencies now have a direct, self-serve route to Gen Z and Millennials on Snapchat. Starting today, they can identify, hire and manage Snapchat creators on Collabstr, the all-in-one marketplace and operating system trusted by 480K brands and 1 million creators. Over 25% of these creators on the platform are ready to work on Snap campaigns.

Although brands still think that it will take them years to reach Gen Z as an audience segment, it already surpassed baby boomers in the US labor market in 2023, and together with Millennials now accounts for 32% of consumer spending, up 8 points since 2020. Snapchat covers most Gen Z and Millenials with 493 million daily users.

“Snapchat’s audience is broader than many marketers realize, with nearly one in four Snapchatters now 35 or older. Across generations, Snapchat is where people connect with the friends, family and creators they trust, giving brands a unique opportunity to become part of those relationships. Together with Collabstr, we’re making it easier for brands to find and partner with creators who can authentically connect with our community and drive lasting value,” said Juliet Merson, Head of Creator Business Partnerships, Snap Inc.

Snapchat metrics differ from other platforms, showing views, average view time, returning viewer rate, and CPM, and giving brands the clarity needed to make ROI-driven choices. Collabstr is pulling Snapchat's native analytics into the platform, while everything else stays the same as with any other platform.

Creators publish fixed rates, so brands see the price before committing. Payment is held in escrow and released once deliverables are approved. Creators are paid in their local currency, and invoicing and tax compliance are handled by Collabstr. Brands and agencies can also bring creators they already work with into the same dashboard at no cost to the creator, so adding Snapchat does not mean rebuilding a roster or running a second workflow. The platform is free to browse and free to join, and brands pay the creator's listed rate plus a platform fee.

"Our goal has always been that a brand can find the right creator on Collabstr across every platform, audience, and niche. Snapchat closes the gap for anyone selling to Gen Z and Millenials. Those brands now get the same experience as everyone else: same search, same published rates, same protection on the payment," said Kyle Dulay, co-founder of Collabstr.

Google's AI Overviews roughly tripled on brand-name searches in September

Google's AI Overviews roughly tripled on brand-name searches in September

AI Overviews on branded Google searches roughly tripled in September 2026. Teams that track only rankings and clicks miss it, and a 13-day Google spam update that ended October 8 makes September ranking data harder to read.

  • 01With AI Overviews roughly tripling on branded queries in September, the brand-name results page is now partly written by Google from other people's websites.
  • 02Ranking first for a company name still wins the top link, but reviews, third-party coverage and consistent facts across the web shape the summary above it.
  • 03Google's September 2026 spam update ran about 13 days and 16 hours, ending October 8, creating overlapping ranking changes.

Is ChatGPT leaving your brand off the shortlist? LLM Pulse founder Esteve Castells on how to win at GEO

Is ChatGPT leaving your brand off the shortlist? LLM Pulse founder Esteve Castells on how to win at GEO

Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the work of getting a brand cited and recommended in AI answers from ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. In a MarketScale webinar, LLM Pulse founder Esteve Castells said GEO builds on SEO but rewards citations over backlinks, decision-focused content over generic explainers, and a presence on the third-party sites that make up 96% of what AI reads. He recommends setting a prompt-tracking baseline, tracking about 20% brand and 80% non-brand prompts, and repeating experiments that earn citations.

  • 01GEO uses the same ingredients as SEO, but citations from sources that talk about your brand count at least as much as backlinks.
  • 02LLM Pulse data shows 96% of what AI reads comes from third-party sources such as LinkedIn, YouTube, review sites and competitor pages.
  • 03Track about 20% brand and 80% non-brand prompts, and create content for the questions customers already ask your support team.
