Costly Review Units
Sending review units costs real money, and some never turn into a video.
Pay-per-view UGC for hardware
Gadgets Sell Best in Someone's Hands. Pay for Those Views.
Hardware units are costly to send out and hard to get back. Pick your reviewers yourself, and pay on verified views after they post. Rovalty takes no commission on what you pay creators.

Why One Big Review Doesn't Last for Consumer Tech
One Day of Big-Reviewer Coverage
Big tech reviewers charge a lot and cover your product for just one day.
Specs That Don't Show Daily Life
A spec sheet doesn't show how a gadget works in daily life.
See the Math: Fees on a Consumer Tech Launch
Marketplaces and networks often charge a percentage of what you spend on creators. Published fees run from 5% to 20%, as our comparisons show. Move the slider to see a year of them beside a flat Rovalty plan.
Cost of the tool over 12 months, not what you pay creators. At small budgets a percentage fee can cost less than a plan, and Rovalty has a free plan up to 10,000 tracked views.
Built for Gadget Brands Whose Owners Already Love the Product
Owners Instead of Sample Lists
Creators contact you for a unit, so you send hardware only to people you've checked.
Coverage That Keeps Coming
Many smaller reviewers can post over time, and each one earns from their own views.
Your Gadget in Real Use
Your existing product footage also lets clippers take part with no unit at all.
The Growth Curve: Hands-On Video Reach Over 90 Days
Views add up as more creators join and post. Change the inputs to see how that could look for you over 90 days.
Day 1Day 45Day 90
- Example views by day 90
- 9.4M
- Paid to creators at $1.50
- $14,040
An example from the inputs above, starting with 10 creators posting 2 videos a week. It isn't a result or a promise. Real reach depends on your videos, and a budget or per-video cap can limit it.
