A UGC creator who has been in the trenches, and two founders who have hired hundreds of creators.

Viral content specialist who has gone viral multiple times across TikTok and Instagram. Mackenzi teaches you the creator side: how to make content that blows up and keeps clients coming back.

Co-founded The Viral App in 2022. Led growth for 30+ apps using creator-led strategies. Lucas teaches the founder perspective: what makes apps hire creators.

Scaled Cal AI to $3M+/mo using creator-led growth. Built growth systems for 30+ B2C apps. Tomas teaches what high-performing content looks like from the data side.
Anyone who wants to get paid creating short-form video content for brands and apps. Whether you're a college student, a full-time employee looking for a side income, or someone who wants to go full-time as a UGC creator, the course covers everything from zero to your first paid deal and beyond.
No. The course starts from absolute zero. Module 1 covers what UGC is, Module 3 walks you through gear (your phone is enough), and Module 4 helps you build your first portfolio. Many of our students had never filmed a video before joining.
Complete all 7 modules, then submit your audition video in Module 7. If your content meets our quality bar, we place you directly with one of our app clients. You'll get a real brief, create real content, and get paid. If you don't pass the first time, we give specific feedback so you can resubmit.
That depends on your effort. Students who complete the course and follow the 30-day action plan typically land their first paid deal within 4 to 8 weeks of finishing. Earnings range from $200 to $2,000+ per month depending on how many clients you take on and how quickly you build your portfolio.
Free content tells you what UGC is. This course gives you the complete system: the exact pitch templates that get replies, the pricing frameworks, the portfolio structure, and the audition path to guaranteed placement. Plus, Modules 5 and 6 give you the perspective from actual app founders who hire creators, which no other course offers.
A smartphone (iPhone or Android from the last 3 years). That's it. Module 3 covers a $50 starter kit for better lighting and audio, but you can start with just your phone. No fancy cameras, no editing software subscriptions, no studio.
Lifetime access. All 7 modules, 29 lessons, bonus materials, and any future updates we add. Watch at your own pace, revisit anytime.
We offer a 30-day money back guarantee, no questions asked. If the course isn't what you expected, email us and we'll refund you in full. Beyond that, if you complete the course and don't land a deal within 90 days, we get on monthly calls with you until you do.
Yes. UGC is not influencer marketing. Brands don't care about your follower count. They care about your ability to create authentic, scroll-stopping content. Some of the highest-paid creators in our network have fewer than 500 followers on their personal accounts.
Most students complete it in 1 to 2 weeks when following the 30-day action plan. Each module is designed to be actionable: watch it, then do it. You'll be filming your first spec videos by Module 4 and sending your first pitches by Module 5.
