From discovery to project coordination.
01Profiles & talent discovery
Searchable profiles bring disciplines, specialist skills, portfolios and service rates together, helping clients find relevant creative talent.
02Briefs & quotations
Clients can set out scope, budgets, deadlines and requirements. Creatives can prepare itemised quotations, export PDFs and review what they share before submitting an offer.
03A private document wallet
An optional wallet helps users organise supporting documents, manage versions and monitor expiry dates. Users choose which documents to share; clients assess their authenticity and eligibility.
04Coordination & reputation
Project status, completion records, reviews and messaging support working relationships. Payment terms can be recorded, while payments are arranged outside the application.
CreativeConnect is in pilot and testing. Wider availability will depend on testing outcomes and product readiness.
WHAT COMES NEXT
Other platforms and products are at concept and development stages. Their next steps will be guided by user demand, feasibility and practical value.
05 / OUR APPROACH
Emerging technology.
Human perspective.
Artificial intelligence is central to our technology focus. People remain central to our decisions.
We are exploring how AI and emerging technologies can help users develop ideas, reduce repetitive work and access useful tools and opportunities. Each application must earn its place in the creative process.
Space for human judgement.
Give people meaningful control and preserve room for creative expression and professional responsibility.
Trust built into the process.
Consider intellectual property, personal information and clear communication about what AI can and cannot do.
