Today, we are excited to speak with Gabrielle Taylor, the CEO and Co-Founder of SUBBD, an innovative platform reshaping the creator economy with AI and Web3 tools. Gabrielle, thank you for joining us.
- SUBBD is described as ‘The Ultimate Creator Platform’. What sets SUBBD apart from other creator platforms in terms of its features and approach?
At SUBBD, creators are at the heart of everything we do, which sets us apart from most platforms out there. Our platform is designed to empower creators with transformative AI tools that help them retain more of their earnings, increase revenue, and reduce workload. This creator-first approach is built into everything we offer—from the advanced AI Personal Assistant to our Creator Academy, which provides essential learning resources, and exclusive access to photoshoots that help build a strong visual brand. SUBBD is all about maximizing creator autonomy, giving creators more time to focus on what they love: creating exceptional content.
- Empowering creators with an AI Personal Assistant is a unique approach. Can you share more about how this AI assistant supports creators and enhances their engagement with fans?
Our AI Personal Assistant is designed to be a creator’s right-hand tool, handling time-consuming tasks so creators can focus on the creative side of things. From managing fan interactions to organizing to-do lists, the AI assistant is there to streamline everyday activities. This AI support allows creators to engage with their audience more effectively, build a stronger community, and even identify opportunities to enhance monetization through upselling. It’s a game-changer for managing workload and staying connected with fans without the burnout.
- Exclusive content is a significant focus on SUBBD. How does the platform help creators monetize their content effectively, especially with features like pay-per-minute texting, subscriptions, and pay-per-view?
SUBBD offers multiple revenue-generating features that allow creators to monetize their content in ways that suit them best. They can put their content behind a paywall for monthly subscriptions, use the Pay-Per-View (PPV) feature—similar to the ease of purchasing content on platforms like Netflix or Amazon—or monetize their inbox through personalized chats, voice notes, and direct sales of images or videos. Additionally, creators can tokenize exclusive content with SUBBDkeys, which they control entirely. Only keyholders can access this content, and these keys can be bought, sold, and traded on our NFT marketplace, with creators earning royalties on resales. It’s all about giving creators diverse options to fully capitalize on their hard work.
- With AI-driven content generation features, like AI Images and AI Video, how do you ensure that creators maintain their unique personal touch and authenticity in what they offer?
We believe in enhancing creator potential, not replacing it. At SUBBD, we have two distinct approaches: supporting real content creators and offering AI-generated personas. Real content creators can use our AI Personal Assistant to manage fan interactions and automate tasks, freeing up more time for authentic content creation. For those who want to dive into AI creation, our platform enables users to generate customizable AI personas. This flexibility allows creators to be whoever they want to be, fostering creativity while respecting authenticity and personal brand identity.
- Your roadmap includes unique offerings like content creation days and exclusive events. How do these events contribute to the growth and success of creators on the platform?
Networking is a key ingredient to success, especially in the content creation industry. Our exclusive SUBBD events and content creation days provide creators with valuable opportunities to connect with each other and grow their networks. Imagine attending a SUBBD photoshoot and connecting with an influencer who has a massive following—collaborations like these can amplify visibility and boost growth. Drawing on my own experience as a model and performer, I know firsthand that some of the best learning happens ‘on the job’. These events offer creators a chance to gain practical insights, share strategies, and build a supportive network that accelerates their growth.
- The team at SUBBD is diverse, with experts across AI, Web3, and content. How has this multidisciplinary expertise influenced the platform’s development and features?
Our team’s multidisciplinary expertise is one of SUBBD’s greatest strengths. We have some of the most talented AI developers in the field, pioneers in OpenAI, who keep us at the forefront of technology. Our Web3 team brings a strong foundation in blockchain innovation, allowing us to seamlessly integrate decentralized solutions for content ownership and monetization. As a former content creator myself, I bring firsthand insights into what creators need to succeed, which helps shape features that truly benefit our community. Together, we’re building a platform that combines technology and industry knowledge to empower creators in ways traditional platforms can’t.
- SUBBD is now in exclusive beta. How can creators and early adopters expect the platform to evolve based on their feedback, and what are some exciting features in the pipeline?
Creator feedback is essential to SUBBD’s development. As a long-time content creator, I understand how valuable it is to feel heard and see your ideas reflected in the platform you use. Our exclusive beta users have the opportunity to shape the platform’s evolution, and we take their feedback seriously. We have exciting features in the pipeline, including gamification elements, advanced analytics, and even more monetization options.
- As a platform built ‘by creators for creators’, what feedback from your creator community has been most influential in shaping SUBBD?
Our community’s feedback has been invaluable in shaping SUBBD. One popular request was for a ‘price list’ feature, allowing creators to display pay-per-view content in a simple, user-friendly interface—similar to browsing Netflix or Amazon. Additionally, creators expressed concerns over the revenue cuts taken by traditional managers, which inspired us to develop the AI Personal Assistant and SUBBDkeys for content tokenization. These features empower creators to regain control over their earnings and protect their content from unauthorized sharing. SUBBDkeys, in particular, offer a secure way to monetize exclusive content, ensuring creators can maximize their earnings without compromising privacy.
- Looking ahead, what are SUBBD’s long-term goals for the creator economy? How do you see the platform evolving to keep pace with the rapid changes in digital content creation and AI?
Our long-term vision for SUBBD is to be a driving force in the creator economy, giving creators the tools and autonomy to thrive independently. As the digital landscape evolves, so will our platform. We aim to stay at the forefront of AI and Web3 advancements, constantly innovating to provide creators with new ways to engage, monetize, and grow. Our focus will remain on empowering creators with features that simplify their workflow, amplify their reach, and diversify their income streams. We’re committed to adapting to industry changes and leading the charge in redefining what’s possible in digital content creation.
Thank you, Gabrielle, for providing us with such valuable insights into SUBBD and its role in transforming the creator economy. We’re excited to see how SUBBD continues to empower creators and reshape the digital content landscape.
