bookd update.
34 founding members. 16 spots left.
6 weeks in and we're 2/3 of the way to capping the founding cohort. talent's flowing in faster than expected. brands are next.
if you book or get booked in the creative industry — DM. once the 50 are in, founding pricing is gone for good.
creatives — what's the worst booking experience you've ever had?
mine: agency reached out, locked in a date, then ghosted 3 days before the shoot. lost the gig + the day.
drop yours 👇 we're building bookd to fix exactly this.

here's how a shoot gets booked in the creative industry in 2026:
brand: "we need a photographer in LA next thursday" intern: searches instagram, slides into 6 DMs photographer: replies 2 days later, rate is $4k brand: ghosts different photographer: replies, sends a venmo request brand: pays, never gets the files someone: cries
we're fixing this.

We are building bookd in public.
the creative industry books talent through Instagram DMs, long email chains, and spreadsheets. it's messy, slow, and broken.
we're fixing it. one platform for models, photographers, stylists, hair & makeup artists, agencies, and brands.
Your calendar. travel schedule. no back and forth.
think resy - but for creatives.
what's the worst part of booking right now?
