Creator Hub
Creator Hub
Creator Hub is Laika’s plug-and-play talent layer — a curated marketplace of builders (design, dev, growth, community, legal/ops) that lets projects hire fast with on-chain briefs, escrowed budgets, milestone payouts, and reputation.
It removes DM chaos and turns “who can help?” into a repeatable, auditable workflow.
What Creator Hub solves
Scouting & trust → vetted rosters, on-chain reputation, clear pricing.
Messy ops → standardized briefs, SOWs, milestones, and payout rails.
Unpaid work / delays → escrow, delivery checks, and milestone-based releases.
No alignment → payments in $LAIKA/$DOGE or token-denominated packages, with optional vesting and EquityOS grants.
Roles
Projects/DAOs — post briefs, fund escrows, review work, release payouts.
Providers (studios, freelancers) — apply to briefs, deliver milestones, build reputation.
Reviewers/Oracles — verify objective acceptance criteria (where applicable).
Governors — fund programs (e.g., growth grants) and set default policies.
How it works (end-to-end)
Post a brief
Choose a template: Brand kit, Landing page, Smart contract audit, Community ops, Go-to-market, Content pack, etc.
Define scope (deliverables), acceptance criteria, timeline, and budget model (fixed, milestone, retainer).
Escrow the budget
Lock funds in $LAIKA / $DOGE / USDC / project token. Optional: split into milestones; add bonus/penalty clauses.
Match & selection
Providers see the brief with budget range, required skills, and deadlines.
Shortlist, request samples, or run a quick RFP inside the app.
Deliver & verify
Provider submits artifacts (files, repos, links).
Acceptance checks: objective (hashes, deadlines, checklist), plus optional reviewer sign-off.
Payout & reputation
Milestone release or full payout.
Both sides leave ratings; completion and dispute rates update the provider’s score.
Everything is visible in dashboards: who delivered, what, when, for how much.
Work types & presets
Design & Brand — logo/identity, UI kits, motion, pitch decks.
Frontend/Backend — dApps, integrations, APIs, bots, indexers.
Smart Contracts — audits, upgrades, tooling, simulations.
Growth & Content — site copy, threads, video, PR/op-ed drafts.
Community Ops — mod playbooks, event ops, translations, L1/L2 migrations.
Legal/Compliance (lite) — policy docs, ToS/privacy drafts (jurisdictional counsel remains project’s responsibility).
Each preset ships with a checklist (scope, acceptance tests, artifacts) and SLA hints (turnaround windows).
Payment models
Fixed price — single release on acceptance.
Milestones — multiple releases tied to deliverables (design → dev → QA → launch).
Retainer — weekly/monthly streams with service caps.
Hybrid — fixed base + performance bonus (e.g., signups, conversion, uptime).
Alignment options
Bonus in $LAIKA or project token with vesting.
EquityOS grants (ECT/RCT) for core contributors.
ShillOS add-on for distribution deliverables (threads, memes, spaces).
Default parameters (governance-tunable)
Escrow grace: 72h to resolve acceptance disputes before arbitration.
Delivery windows: milestone due dates enforceable with penalties/credits.
Payout currency: $LAIKA/$DOGE/USDC or mix; FX at execution block.
Retention & IP: default work-for-hire with IP transfer on final payment; open-source exceptions selectable.
Rating weight: recent jobs count more; disputes reduce score temporarily.
Provider caps: limit concurrent briefs per provider to avoid overload.
Active defaults appear in-app; changes require governance.
Reputation & discovery
Public profile: skills, past jobs, artifacts, on-chain earnings.
Scores: completion rate, dispute rate, on-time delivery, re-hire rate.
Badges: Verified, Security-cleared, Gov-preferred, OG Cohort.
Search: filter by stack, budget, timeline, language, time zone.
Safety, compliance & plain-language notes
Funds are escrowed and released by objective checks; avoid off-platform deals.
Laika provides infrastructure, not legal advice. Projects own jurisdictional compliance.
Default IP = work-for-hire; if open-source, ensure license is set in the brief.
No keys or credentials should be shared outside agreed secure channels; rotate secrets on delivery.
Disputes escalate to an arbitrator set by governance; rulings release funds accordingly.
TL;DR
Creator Hub turns “find someone” into hire, deliver, pay — on-chain.
Projects get speed and accountability; providers get reliable payouts and reputation; the ecosystem compounds because execution becomes a repeatable primitive inside the Super App.
