gen.video, an award-winning influencer marketing company, is excited to announce the  launch of its new platform, partnrUP, alongside the  acquisition of Bounty, an app that automates the collection of UGC for ecommerce brands on Shopify. This announcement marks a significant expansion of gen.video’s mission to help brands build, scale, and optimize their work with creators.

partnrUP is a first of its kind collaboration platform designed to make it easier, faster, and more enjoyable for everyone involved in the process of making and approving content.

The acquisition of Bounty immediately gives clients access to a vast network of UGC creators and introduces new performance-based incentives tied to viewership on TikTok and Instagram, pairing seamlessly with gen.video’s commission-based solutions to scale affiliate and ambassador programs.

“Creator content is at the heart of many brands’ marketing strategies, and partnrUP makes it more accessible with mobile-friendly feedback and approval tools, deeper commerce integrations, and AI-driven search technology,” said Jessica Thorpe, CEO of gen.video. “With Bounty, we’ll be able to provide access to more creators and expand the ways brands incentivize and compensate them for the content they make.”

“At Bounty, we’ve built a strong network and flywheel to recruit micro and nano creators and have been focused on helping brands tap into authentic customer voices to drive growth. We’re excited to bring Bounty’s strengths together with gen.video’s industry-leading influencer management and content-to-commerce expertise,” said Abraham Wolke, Founder and CEO of Bounty.

For nearly a decade, gen.video has delivered tailored creator marketing solutions to clients including P&G, HP, Bayer, and Nike. Its influencer expertise and commerce analytics have driven substantial sales growth for these brands across key retail channels.

“I’ve always believed gen.video was one of the most effective and efficient influencer marketing companies. Their ability to provide branded video content at scale for global companies like Kimberly-Clark, where I first engaged them, and through the Bounty acquisition they can now support Weathertech and our DTC Shopify store. They listen to our needs and integrate seamlessly into our broader marketing strategy,” said David Parker, International Territory Owner – Weathertech Switzerland.

Today marks the next chapter for gen.video as it recognizes the different needs of companies—some seeking tools for internal creator practices, others requiring agency expertise. By combining capabilities from both companies, gen.video can help marketers in more ways through:

  • Mobile-Friendly Collaboration Tools: approvals by allowing anyone to upload content on behalf of creators with an interactive media player that enables time-stamped, pin-dropped comments for precise feedback.
  • Expanded Creator Network: Access a broader range of diverse UGC creators and global influencers to produce content and reach new audiences.
  • More Commerce Connections: New widgets that connect Amazon and Shopify stores speed up and automate campaign setup, sharing affiliate links with influencers, activating customers, and unlocking new measurement capabilities.
  • Betty, Our AI Agent:  Analyzes every piece of content inside and out to help stakeholders across social, paid, and ecommerce teams quickly find and use content with the appropriate rights.

With this launch and the acquisition of Bounty, gen.video offers brands of all sizes an unparalleled suite of social commerce tools to help inspire shopping through the power of creator content. These developments underscore gen.video’s commitment to empowering brands to connect with their audiences in meaningful ways, driving business impact and growth.
