Built for the pressure moment

Built for pitch weeks, impossible deadlines and briefs that need more brains.

Confidential by default. Only selected creatives invited to your project can access your brief.

  • Advertising agencies
  • Creative agencies
  • Social agencies
  • Brand studios
  • In-house creative teams

Sometimes you don't need another hire.
You need five more brains until Friday.

Pitch weeks create a weird capacity problem.

Your best people are already busy. Freelancers take time to find, brief and manage. Traditional creative outsourcing requires contracts, calls and long-term commitments.

CASCARA turns extra creative thinking into something you can simply buy when you need it.

How it works

Tell us the deadline and what kind of thinking you need.

Not crowdsourcing.

Traditional creative crowdsourcing

  • Hundreds of people may see the brief
  • Creatives often work speculatively
  • Only winners get paid
  • Quantity over relevance
  • Client has to sort through submissions

CASCARA

  • A small number of relevant creatives are specifically invited
  • Everyone who accepts and delivers gets paid
  • Talent is matched to the brief — never browsed by the client
  • A CD curates and improves the work
  • Client only sees the work worth seeing

If we invite a creative to work, they get paid. Period.

Human ideas. AI-speed.

Senior human creative thinking is the product. Experienced creatives develop the ideas, and a Creative Director curates and refines the strongest work.

AI stays behind the scenes, helping with matching, availability, workflow, project coordination, administration and presentation preparation.

The ideas come from real people.

  • Different careers.
  • Different cultures.
  • Different references.
  • Different senses of humour.
  • Different taste.

Because ten prompts are not the same thing as ten brains.

For creatives

Good briefs. Fair pay. Zero pitching for work.

When a brief matches your experience, you receive an invitation containing:

  • deadline
  • guaranteed fee

ACCEPT or SKIP.

If you accept and deliver the agreed work, you get paid regardless of whether your idea makes the final shortlist.
