Self-reported follower counts are a broken market signal. Creators can inflate them, forget to update them, or just lie. Brands have no way to verify.

We require every creator to OAuth-connect at least one of their social accounts. This gives Collabify read access to the real numbers: followers, posts, engagement — updated daily.

The consequence: no padding, no sock puppets, no "I used to have 200K but I bought a bot once and it purged me." Your dashboard reflects reality.

Creators who refuse to verify can still list on Collabify. They just don't show up in most brand searches. We let the market sort it out.
