Rebuilding the same brief
Niche, platform, country, follower range, email required. You type it all again each time, and small changes creep in.

Automations in short
Creator sourcing automations run a saved UGC creator brief on a schedule and email the new creators as a CSV, skipping anyone your account already has. Trend reports can run the same way. They are for teams that need a steady flow of fresh creators without starting a new search each week.

Why teams automate
Sourcing creators every week shouldn’t mean starting over every week.
Most creator programs need a steady flow of new names, not one big list. Doing that by hand means repeating the same search, the same filters and the same cleanup every Monday.
The same faces keep coming back
Half of every new list is creators you already contacted, so you spend the morning removing duplicates instead of reaching out.
Nobody notices the list is ready
The search finished hours ago, but it sits in a tab until someone remembers to check it.
What an automation does
Set the brief once. New creators arrive on time, and your team hears about it.
Pick the rhythm
Every day, weekdays, weekly, every two weeks or monthly, at the hour you choose in your timezone, with up to 2,000 creators per run.
Get the list by email
A branded email previews the top three creators, links back to UGC Agent and attaches the full batch as a CSV.
Hear about it in Slack
Connect Slack to post when an automation finishes, when a trend report is ready, and when a run fails.
How it works
From one brief to a list that refills itself.
Create it from the Automations tab or just ask the agent in chat. Either way, the first batch starts right away.
Start free01
Describe the search
Write the creator brief in plain English, the same way you would in Super Search, and set how many creators you want in each batch.
- Example: “Every weekday at 9:00 AM, find 20 new US skincare creators with public emails and send them to the campaign lead.”
- Exclusions work too, such as “any niche but photography”
- If a required detail is missing, the agent asks before it saves
02
Set the schedule
Choose the cadence and delivery time, then the email address that should receive each batch. The time follows your timezone.
- Every day, weekdays, weekly, every two weeks, or monthly on a set day (or the last day)
- One recipient per automation, so every list has a clear owner
03
Review batch one
The first run starts as soon as you save and is emailed like any other run. You check real creators while the brief is still fresh, instead of waiting a week to find out it was too narrow.
04
Receive fresh lists
Each scheduled run delivers only creators you have not received before, with a preview in the email and the complete batch as a CSV. Edit, pause, resume or delete the automation whenever the campaign changes.
- Edit the brief, batch size, cadence, time or recipient without rebuilding it
- Pause between campaigns and resume later
No repeat deliveries
Every batch is new creators, not the same twenty again.
A recurring list only helps if it brings fresh names. Before a run is delivered, UGC Agent checks every candidate against what your workspace already knows.
- Creators already delivered to your account, by an automation, a search or an unlock, are skipped
- Excluded creators from Agent Preferences never come back in a later batch
- Your saved Agent Preferences apply to every run, so the standards you set once keep holding
- Each automation remembers the profiles it already checked, so it keeps reaching further instead of re-reading the same accounts

Trends automations
A trend report in your inbox, before your next brief.
Trends automations watch TikTok, Instagram or both for your topic and send a short report on the cadence you pick. Use it to plan briefs and scripts with what is working right now.
- Up to five trends per report, grouped by TikTok, Instagram and wider web signals
- Each trend says what was observed and how to use it in a UGC brief
- Proof links on every trend, so you can watch the examples yourself
- If nothing verified turned up this cycle, the email says so instead of padding the report
TikTok
01Night routines filmed in one take
- What we observed
- Unedited, one-take night routines with the product shown mid-routine keep showing up across skincare creators this week.
- How to use it
- Brief creators to film one continuous routine and place your product at step two, not as the finale.

After the list arrives
The automation stops at sourcing. Here is where the list goes next.
An automation never contacts creators for you. Review the batch, then move the creators you approve into the outreach workflow you already run.
Before and after
Weekly sourcing by hand vs. an automation.
By hand
- Retyping the brief every week
- Deleting creators you already have
- A list nobody knows is ready
- Finding out a week later the search was off
- Trend research when someone has time
- Starting over when the campaign changes
With an automation
- The brief is saved and runs itself
- Anyone already delivered is skipped
- An email with a CSV, plus a Slack notice
- The first batch runs the moment you save
- A trend report on a fixed cadence
- Edit, pause or resume the same automation
Who it’s for

The search behind every automation is the one these teams already use.
UGC World
1,000creators from one prompt in about 10 minutes, with zero bounces
UGC World sourced 1,000 creators with UGC Agent, emailed them, and saw a reply rate of about 20%, with 147 positive replies.

Both results come from UGC Agent searches. An automation runs that same search on a schedule and skips creators you already have.
What runs where
Runs on our servers. You keep every decision.
An automation keeps creator discovery moving while you are offline. Everything after the list stays with your team.
What it doesn’t do
- No automatic outreach, negotiation or hiring
- One recipient email per automation
- Trend reports cover global signals, not one country
- Instagram and TikTok only
- 01
Runs in the cloud
Scheduled runs happen on UGC Agent’s servers at the time you set. You do not need the app, a browser tab or your laptop open.
- 02
Same agent as Super Search
Each run searches Instagram and TikTok live, checks every profile against your brief and keeps only creators with a public email.
- 03
Uses your lead pool
Creators delivered by an automation count against the same monthly lead pool as searches and unlocks. If nothing new matches, you get a short “no matching leads” email and spend nothing.
- 04
Delivered three ways
The email digest with a CSV, a Slack notice if you connected Slack, and the creators themselves in UGC Agent for review and export.
One automation on every plan. Unlimited from Premium.
Pro includes one automation of either type. Premium and above remove the limit. Delivered creators come out of your monthly lead pool. Compare plans
- Pro$29/mo1 automation, 200 leads a month
- Premium$59/moUnlimited automations, 5,000 leads
- Ultra$199/moUnlimited, plus automations by API
What is automated creator sourcing?
A saved creator search that runs again on the schedule you choose. You describe the creators once, pick the cadence, time and recipient, and UGC Agent delivers new creators with public emails as an email preview plus a CSV. Your team still reviews the list and owns outreach, negotiation and hiring.
When does the first automated search run?
Straight away. Saving an automation starts the first run immediately and emails it like any scheduled run, so you can check real results before relying on the schedule.
Will an automation deliver the same creator twice?
No. Creators already delivered to your account are skipped, whether they came from an automation, a search or an unlock. Excluded creators from Agent Preferences are skipped too, and each automation remembers the profiles it already checked.
What arrives after each run?
A Leads automation sends a branded email with the top three creators, a button back to UGC Agent and the full batch as a CSV with creator, handle, platform, followers, email, niche, profile link and UGC fit score. A Trends automation sends a report of up to five trends, each with what was observed, how to use it and proof links.
Can I get a Slack message when it finishes?
Yes. Connect Slack in Integrations and choose which notices to post: completed searches, automation results, trend reports and failures.
What can I change after it is created?
The brief, batch size, cadence, delivery time and recipient. You can also pause an automation between campaigns, resume it later, or delete it.
How many automations can I run?
One on Pro, unlimited on Premium, Ultra and Enterprise. Delivered creators count against your monthly lead pool, the same as searches and unlocks.
