> Search creators on YouTube, X, Instagram and TikTok by network, niche and country. Verified creators first; contact them without seeing their e-mail.

## In short

The [creator directory](https://satt.com/creators) lists creators with their public handles and follower counts, filterable by network, niche and country, with Verified creators listed first. Advertisers can invite a creator to a campaign through SaTT, which sends the e-mail without ever revealing the address. Creators can claim their profile by signing in with the network.

## What is in the creator directory?

Two kinds of profiles:

- **SaTT accounts** whose owners chose to be listed, with their linked networks and how each was proven. [Verified creators](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#verified-creator) appear first.
- **Directory profiles** imported from public creator lists (creators, journalists, influencers), with their accounts per network.

Each profile shows public handles, follower counts, niche and country, never an e-mail address.

## How do you search and filter?

| Filter | Values |
| --- | --- |
| Search | Name, handle or keyword |
| Network | X, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok |
| Niche | Topics present in the directory |
| Country | Countries present in the directory |
| Sort | Reach, name or most recent |

## How do you contact a creator?

On a profile that has a contact address, press the contact button, add your name, a reply-to address and a message. SaTT’s server composes and sends the invite. The creator’s address is read on the server and never sent to your browser. The contact form is rate-limited to prevent spam.

Another option is to hire the creator directly at a fixed price with a [gig](https://satt.com/guides/features/gigs-escrow).

## How do creators control their listing?

- **Claim a directory profile**: sign in with the network of a listed account; SaTT checks the identity matches and marks the profile as claimed. No access token is kept.
- **Show or hide your SaTT profile**: a toggle in [Account settings](https://satt.com/account) controls whether brands see your public handles and follower counts.
- **Rank higher**: become a Verified creator by verifying every linked network. See [the Verified creator badge](https://satt.com/guides/features/verified-creator-badge).

## Key takeaways

- Filter creators by network, niche and country; sort by reach, name or recency.
- Verified creators are listed first.
- Invites are sent by SaTT’s server; creator e-mails are never exposed.
- Creators can claim a listed profile by signing in with the network, and hide their SaTT profile.

## Frequently asked questions

### Are follower counts live?

For verified SaTT accounts they come from the networks’ official reads. Imported directory profiles show the counts from their source lists, refreshed where possible.

### Why can I not contact some creators?

Only profiles with a contact address on file can receive an invite. For others, use their public social profile or a gig.

### Can AI agents search the directory?

Yes, through the public read-only [MCP server](https://satt.com/guides/features/mcp-api) tools `search_creators` and `get_creator`, which never return e-mails.
