Vibey Media vs. Cohley.
Cohley is built for enterprise creator programs and content licensing. We're built for DTC founders who want finished ads next Friday. Here's the split.
Why Cohley exists.
Cohley is a serious platform. They matched brands to creators, layered in content licensing, then built into UGC, influencer, photography, and product seeding under one roof. For a Fortune 1000 brand with quarterly creative budgets and a content licensing strategy, the breadth makes sense.
Where Cohley falls short for DTC at our size.
For brands $500K-$10M ARR, these gaps cost the most.
- 1
Built for enterprise. The pricing, contracting, and onboarding ramp assume a buyer with procurement and a multi-month rollout. A DTC founder making a Tuesday decision is not the ICP.
- 2
Pricing is opaque and tiered. Custom quotes, tiered platform fees, content licensing add-ons. Real money once you stack it.
- 3
Slow ramp to first asset. Platform onboarding, creator matching, brief approvals, contracts — weeks, not days, before the first clip exists.
- 4
Marketplace dynamics, not production. The platform connects you to creators. The shoot, the direction, the polish — that's still on you or your agency.
Where Vibey is different.
Studio, not a platform. We don't match you to a creator. We cast, brief, shoot, edit, and ship. One vendor, one invoice.
First batch in 7 days. No procurement cycle, no platform onboarding. Brief Monday, ads Friday.
One simple plan per brand. Custom by mix — model-led, software-augmented variants, image ads — but no tiered platform fees.
Founder-to-founder accountability. You get me on every brief, every revision, every Friday Loom. If something needs to change, it changes that day.
Vibey vs. Cohley, line for line.
