Collabstr vs Runner

On Collabstr, a brand orders a creator's preset package or a custom offer, and the payment is held in escrow until the brand approves the content. On Runner, your rate card is your own booking page: a brand, or its AI agent, makes the offer.

In one line

Collabstr

Preset packages and custom offers, paid up front and held in escrow until the brand approves the content.

Runner

Your own booking page with your floor kept on every offer, open to a brand's AI agent, and, once your payments are set up to take deposits, offers on your card held, signed and paid in the brand's deal room.

Side by side

Where does a brand see your prices?
Collabstr

Preset packages a brand can order, and custom offers.

Runner

Your own booking page, your rate card and media kit in one: packages, extras, terms and open days. It opens once you sign the card, and any change waits for a new signature.

Whose side is the AI agent on?
Collabstr

Its help centre does not describe an AI agent on either side.

Runner

Yours. Your page answers by your rules, and a brand's own AI agent can make an offer on it, with a work email and a six-digit code. A person at the brand signs the agreement.

What happens to an offer under your price?
Collabstr

One minimum for every collaboration, set by Collabstr: “All collaborations require a minimum payment of $50”.

Runner

It's declined at once, with your prices beside it. A category or a term you refused is declined at any price, and anything off your card comes to you as a task.

How does an offer become a booked day?
Collabstr

A brand places an order for a package or a custom offer, and you accept it.

Runner

Once your payments are set up to take deposits, an offer on your card holds the day and the agreement is written from your card into the brand's deal room. The brand signs and pays the deposit there, and the day turns from held to booked.

Is there an agreement to sign?
Collabstr

Its help centre does not describe a contract.

Runner

Yes: written from your card into the brand's deal room, where a person at the brand signs it. Every agreement carries the paid partnership label and an on-screen Ad, and an AI label for an AI character.

How does the money arrive?
Collabstr

The brand pays at checkout, and the payment is held in escrow until the brand approves the content.

Runner

The brand pays the deposit in its deal room before the day is booked, once your payments are set up to take deposits.

What does it cost?
Collabstr

“A 10% fee is added at checkout for brands”, and “Collabstr charges a 15% commission on all order payouts”.

Runner

A booking fee from December 1, 2026: 10% of what your page collects, at most $2,500 a booking; 15% when Runner brings the brand.
