Who is CreatoRain for?
CreatoRain is for restaurants that want food creators to visit and post. It finds creators in the areas where your locations are and sends the invitations and follow-ups. A person checks each drafted reply before it goes out, unless you turn on auto-send. It suits a group with many locations, since one campaign covers them all.
Skip it if your business is not a restaurant. Skip it too if you need to know how many people saw a video or what it did for sales, because it tracks replies, bookings and videos only. On self-serve, creator pay and comp meals cost extra on top of the plan.
Pros and cons

Cons
- Built for restaurants only

Frequently asked questions
Does CreatoRain send replies to creators without a person checking them?
No, not by default. The AI drafts each reply, and a person reviews it before it sends unless the operator turns on auto-send. On self-serve that person is you; on done-with-you it is a CreatoRain specialist.
Can CreatoRain search for creators by distance from my restaurant?
No. It searches for food creators in the areas where your locations are, and the filters are name, city, state and follower count. Results are not ranked by distance.
What results does CreatoRain track?
It tracks replies, visits booked by location and status, and videos submitted and approved. It does not measure views or sales.
Does CreatoRain set up the campaign for me?
Partly. It reads your restaurant’s website and drafts the campaign name and description. You review and correct them, and you add your locations.
