Trybe as a Service · a Trybe partner agency

Trybe Works. Most Brands Never Get It Running. We Run It for You.

Creators who already sell on TikTok Shop, whitelisted into your Meta account through Trybe, paid only when your ads sell. We recruit, train, brief, approve and coach them every week. You keep your media buyer.

Why Trybe is winning

Creators make the videos. You run them as ads. They earn only when it sells.

That is Trybe's whole pitch, and it is why every ecom founder is talking about it. It turns creator content from a cost you pay upfront into a sales force you pay on results. The ad runs from the creator's own handle, so it looks like a post from a real person, because it is one.

Its founder, Lukas Pakter, ran the old way for years on his own brand: pay per video, hope it converts. It never did. Paid on performance, his Meta cost per customer fell from $89 to $29 and the brand went from $200K to $6M a month in a year. His figures, September 2026.

Nobody argues with the model anymore. The question is who runs it.

The catch

Trybe gives you the rails. The program is the work.

Trybe's founder says he pitched a hundred brands and nine in ten never finished setting up their account. Not because the model failed. Because the brands that scale on it do the unglamorous part every single week, and most founders never start.

Train, don't find"You don't find great creators, you train them." The stars already have every brand chasing them; the money is in making sellers out of motivated people.
Be on the callsA group call every week, one-on-ones in between. "People ask who to hire to run this. You should hop on the calls."
Brief every product, fix every hookProduct education, scripts, "you" not "I", no logo up front. His top ad holds a 46% hook rate; a typical influencer-style ad, 9%.
Approve before it runsHe watched about a hundred videos a day himself until 3,000 ads a month. Bad videos in the account cost money and creators' morale.
Whitelist every handleSo the ad comes from a real person and never counts against your ad-account limit.
Read the scoreboard, keep the peopleWeekly numbers, cut what isn't paying back, scale the winner. Coach and pay creators so they stay; "if they leave after six months you've funded your competition."

In his words

Paid for the job, they rush. Paid on results, they sell.

"They got paid for the job, not for the performance, so they rushed. Any brand still paying a creator a flat rate is out of their mind."Lukas Pakter, founder of Trybe · @squidpakter · Sept 24, 2026
@squidpakter

Traditional UGC creators hate me, and they hate Trybe, because we changed their way of life.

Most brands have the ad budget for Trybe. Almost none have the hours. That gap is the service.

Trybe as a Service · how it works

Connect. Train. Hunt. Every week, run for you.

The founder's playbook, done by people who sell on the platform themselves.

Step 1

Connect and Match

Connect your brand to MADE on Trybe, or we set the account up with you. Tell us your product, price and buyer. We match creators from our roster of 400+ TikTok Shop sellers who already sell in your category, and put your force together for Monday.

Your creators · matched Monday

Handles unmasked on the call. "Sold" means attributed sales in the last 30 days.

Step 2

Train, Brief, Whitelist

We brief the force on your product and offer, coach the hook and the script, whitelist their handles into your Meta account through Trybe, and approve every video before it runs. Your first approved ads are live within 7 days.

Step 3

Run the Weekly Hunt

Every week: new approved ads, the group call, one-on-ones, the scoreboard read. We cut what isn't paying back and put more creators and more ads behind the winner. Creators are paid through Trybe only on results, so they keep hunting. Your media buyer keeps the wheel.

Who runs your program

Trybe's founder says the best person to run a creator group is a top creator. Ours is #5 on Trybe.

What you pay

One program fee. Then you pay when it sells.

$5,000 to launch. Account setup on Trybe, creator matching, briefs, whitelisting, the first batch's creator pay and the weekly stand-up. After that, 5% of the sales your creators bring in, tracked by Trybe's server-side attribution. Creators are paid on results through your Trybe program, never a flat fee per video. No retainer.

Two promises in writing. Your creator ads are live within 7 days with new approved ads every week, or we keep producing free until they are. And if you run the batch with your normal test budget for 30 days and not one ad beats your current best on cost per purchase, we cover the creators' pay for the next batch. We never promise revenue. Nobody honestly can.

Trybe's platform fee is separate and published at jointrybe.com. We are a partner agency on the platform, not the platform.

Who it's built for

Built for brands that want Trybe's results without running Trybe.

Built for you

This is for you if

  • ✓You're spending on Meta with a control ad you know, ideally six figures a month, so creators can earn enough to stay
  • ✓You want creator ads paid on results, not another invoice for videos
  • ✓You don't have the founder hours for weekly creator calls, briefs and approvals
Probably not yet

This isn't for you if

  • ✕You're pre-launch or still validating the product
  • ✕Your tracking doesn't count real purchases yet
  • ✕You have the hours and the coach to run Trybe yourself. Then do it yourself; the founder's playbook is public and it works.

Why this month, not next

The bar on Trybe moves every year.

Five years ago 100 ads a month was a lot. Today the top brands on the platform run a thousand or more, and the creators worth having are already inside someone's program. Trybe's founder puts it plainly: the longer you wait, the further down the list you are.

Every brand gets the same three people on the stand-up. We don't outsource it, so we start a handful of brands a month, on Mondays.

Common questions

Questions brands ask before they apply.

Why not just sign up for Trybe ourselves?

You should have a Trybe account either way. Trybe is the platform; the results come from the program: recruiting, training, weekly calls, briefs, approvals, the scoreboard. Its founder says the founder should be on the calls. If you have those hours and a coach who sells, run it yourself. If you don't, that is what we do.

We're already on Trybe and it isn't working.

That is the nine in ten. Connect your brand to MADE on Trybe and we take over the program: your existing creators plus our roster, the weekly cadence, every video approved before it runs. We start Monday.

Do we need a Trybe account?

Yes. Connect your brand to MADE inside Trybe, or we set the account up with you on the call. Trybe's platform fee is published at jointrybe.com and is separate from ours.

How are creators paid?

Through Trybe, on results, under the program terms we set with you. No flat fee per video. Trybe's founder's rule is that creators should earn on results and enough to keep hunting; paid per video they rush, paid on results they sell.

How fast are the first ads live?

Book a call. We check your funnel, tracking and margins within 48 hours. You pay, your force is matched on Monday, first approved ads within 7 days, new approved ads every week, and a scoreboard on day 30.

What does it cost?

$5,000 to launch, covering Trybe setup, matching, briefs, whitelisting, the first batch's creator pay and the weekly stand-up. After that, 5% of the sales your creators bring in. No retainer.

How is this different from a UGC agency?

A UGC agency sells you videos and is run by creative people. We run a creator program on Trybe: real sellers' handles on your ads, every video approved, weekly coaching, and a fee that only exists when you sell. You're not paying for videos. You're paying for a program that runs.

Can my product work with this?

Any product a customer would talk about on camera can work; fashion, supplements, beauty and DTC are the biggest categories on Trybe. Below about six figures a month on Meta, creators can't earn enough to stay, so we'll say so on the call if you're not there yet.

Stop paying for videos. Run Trybe like the brands that win.

One call. We tell you in 20 minutes whether your brand is ready, and what Monday looks like.
