Executive Summary

Local Karnataka brands, regional agencies and Kannada creators are struggling with two connected problems: discovery and measurable performance. Brands find it hard to locate Kannada-first creators with the right audience fit and verified metrics, agencies lack reliable attribution for sales or leads, and creators need more predictable, repeatable revenue — a problem that sits within a larger $2.0B addressable influencer market (200,000 Indian brands x $10K average annual influencer spend). A focused product would combine a searchable roster of vetted Kannada creators, campaign management tools for briefs and payments, and built-in attribution that ties impressions and engagement to leads or sales via UTMs, affiliate links and simple offline tracking hooks. Monetization could be a mix of SaaS for agencies/brands, success-based fees on tracked conversions, and premium creator subscriptions for retainer management; technical work will need to solve identity linkage, fraud prevention and multi-touch attribution. This is an attractive moment because regional-language consumption is rising and brands increasingly rate performance measurement as a must-have, which is reflected in a Market Score of 88/100 and Revenue Potential of 84/100. Competition is medium, so differentiation should focus on a deeper Kannada-first creator database, standardized KPIs and attribution playbooks, and tight operational support for onboarding and verification — but expect challenges scaling supply, closing initial enterprise deals, and building robust end-to-end measurement.
