About EdgeURL Discover

What is EdgeURL Discover?

EdgeURL Discover is a free creator discovery layer for the EdgeURL Social Identity Platform. Fans, brands, and AI agents come here to find verified creators; creators get found organically and convert that visibility into follows, bookings, and audience.

Verified identity across 16 platforms

Every creator on Discover can prove they actually own the social handles on their profile. Edge Verification works across 16 platforms: Instagram, X, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, GitHub, Reddit, Threads, Facebook, Pinterest, Snapchat, Twitch, Medium, Substack, Spotify, and Bluesky.

Verification is portable: prove ownership once and the badge propagates to your profile, your bio page, your Hire Me listing, and your Discover ranking. Brands and fans see verified status before they engage; impersonators don't get the same trust signal.

How discovery ranks

Profiles are ranked organically by a small set of signals that are hard to fake:

  • Profile completeness: bio, avatar, links, category
  • Verification depth: how many social platforms you've verified ownership of
  • Audience engagement: follows and bookmarks earned over time
  • Freshness: recent edits and active profiles get a small boost
  • Category match: relevance to whatever the visitor is searching for

New creators have the same opportunity to surface as established ones. The exact weights aren't public, but every input is a property a creator can actually control.

Follow, bookmark, get notified

Discover is a two-way directory. When you find a creator you want to keep up with, you can follow them or bookmark their profile for later. Followed creators show up in your Discover dashboard, and creators get notified when you follow.

For creators, follower counts and engagement feed back into your Discover ranking, so building real audience inside Discover compounds your visibility outside it.

Built for AI agents

EdgeURL Discover is queryable directly by AI agents through our public MCP server at mcp.edgeurl.io. Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Continue, and any MCP-aware client can search creators, fetch profile data, and look up verified identities right inside the conversation, with cryptographically signed receipts for every action.

For creators, this means your profile is discoverable in the AI tools your audience already uses, not just on the public web. For brands, it means agent-mediated outreach with clear attribution back to the source.

Read the MCP integration guide for technical details on connecting your AI client.

Hire creators directly

Discover is the front door to Hire Me: direct creator-brand booking with Stripe-escrowed payments, AI-drafted contracts, dispute resolution, and an audit trail. Creators keep 85%; EdgeURL takes 15% to cover escrow and resolution.

That's a fair fee compared to traditional influencer agencies (20-30%) or marketplaces like Fiverr and Upwork (combined effective rates ~24-26% and variable up to 15% respectively). Brands save the agency markup; creators keep more of every booking.

Who can be listed?

Anyone with an EdgeURL account can enable Discover indexing. Your profile becomes discoverable on EdgeURL Discover within minutes.

All profiles must follow our community rules. Profiles that violate these rules may be removed.

Built by EdgeURL

EdgeURL Discover is built and operated by EdgeURL, the Social Identity Platform that unifies verified identity, link routing, content, commerce, and AI-agent infrastructure into one creator profile.

EdgeURL provides the underlying profile pages, link analytics, verification system, and Hire Me marketplace. EdgeURL Discover is the discovery layer that helps those profiles get found by people, brands, and AI agents.
