DIY campaign
I sell a compact 18V cordless impact driver and I want real DIYers to show it driving long screws into hardwood and building a flat-pack unit in a garage.

Here are the formats that work best in this niche. Every video is delivered in vertical 9:16, ready to publish.

Real-time build POV

A first-person shot of the creator assembling a shelf or deck, cutting to the tool doing the hard part with the sound left in.

▶ 9:16 · 🔨

Tool torture test

The maker pushes a drill, sander or saw through the toughest material they own to prove it doesn't stall or bog down.

▶ 9:16 · 🔨

Before/after fix

A quick reveal of a squeaky door, chipped wall or wobbly chair, then the same job finished cleanly with the product.

Use cases

Which diy brands is it for?

DIY UGC performs when the product is shown in a real situation. Here are the most common use cases.

Power tools

Buyers want to see torque, run-time and grip in real hands before spending, and raw workbench footage does that better than a spec sheet.

Hardware & fixings

Screws, anchors and brackets feel interchangeable online, so a clip showing one hold weight in a wall builds instant trust.

Home improvement

Paint, filler and flooring sell on the finished result, and a clean before/after transition is the most shareable proof there is.

Craft & hobby supplies

Makers scroll for project inspiration, so a satisfying build with your kit doubles as both an ad and a tutorial.

DIY FAQ

Frequently asked questions about diy UGC.

How much does a DIY campaign cost?

You set the budget per creator, anywhere from €50 to €2000, and choose 1 to 50 makers. There's no subscription and you only pay once you approve the videos.

Are the creators actual DIYers?

Yes. You brief the niche and formats you want, and the AI matches makers who genuinely work with tools and craft supplies, so the footage looks like a real project rather than a paid actor holding a box.

Which platforms and format do I get?

Every video is vertical 9:16, ready for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. You can request the same brief across all three or focus on one.

What about revisions and getting paid?

You review each video and request changes before approving. Creators are paid by bank transfer within 5 business days of your approval, so nobody gets paid for work you haven't signed off.
