Executive Summary

Main Street Virality (MSV) is an influencer marketing platform designed to connect brands with creators through agencies. The platform supports six distinct user roles: brands, agencies, campaign managers, creators, reviewers, and administrators. Each role has tailored dashboards, permissions, and workflows optimized for their responsibilities.

Launched on December 29th, 2025, MSV wasted no time proving product-market fit. Under CEO Amy Street's direction, the platform signed its first enterprise client within two weeks: Kraken, the cryptocurrency exchange, engaged MSV to promote their new product "Inky" with a six-figure campaign budget. In that same timeframe, MSV onboarded over 200 creators and continues to expand by the hundreds through initiatives led by Amy Street.

WRKSHP.DEV was engaged to build the complete platform from scratch, implementing complex multi-tenant architecture, OAuth integrations for creator verification, sophisticated AI-powered brand-to-creator matchmaking, and a hybrid payment system supporting both traditional (Stripe/Aspire) and crypto (Solana) payouts. The result is a production-ready platform that attracted enterprise clients before most startups finish their first sprint.

The Influencer Campaign Chaos

Running influencer campaigns at scale requires coordinating multiple stakeholders, tracking deliverables across platforms, managing approvals, and processing payments. Most teams cobble together spreadsheets, email chains, and multiple payment processors.

  • Stakeholder Complexity: Brands, agencies, and creators each have different needs and workflows. A single campaign might involve dozens of people across multiple organizations.
  • Deliverable Chaos: Content moves through creation, submission, revision, and approval stages. Without a system, posts get lost, feedback is scattered, and deadlines slip.
  • Payment Friction: Creators expect fast payment. Traditional banking delays and international transfer fees eat into margins and create dissatisfaction.

Unified Campaign Operating System

We built MSV as a single source of truth for influencer campaigns. Every stakeholder has a role-appropriate view, and the system enforces workflow stages automatically.

X OAuth Verification

Creators authenticate via Twitter/X to verify identity and automatically pull follower counts, engagement rates, and recent post performance. No manual data entry required.

AI Brand-Creator Matching

Sophisticated AI analyzes brand requirements, campaign goals, and audience demographics to identify optimal creator matches. The system evaluates engagement patterns, content style, and audience overlap to surface high-probability partnerships.

Solana Payment Portal

Crypto-native creators can receive SOL payouts directly to their wallets. The system manages wallet connections, transaction signing, and payment confirmation. Traditional payouts via Stripe remain available.
