The direct line to creators your strategy has been missing.
Creator Signal gives brands, labels, and agencies instant feedback from 1M+ content creators and 10K+ independent music artists - targeted by country and creator type, delivered within 7 business days.
Companies building for creators are making decisions without creator input.
The creator economy is one of the fastest-growing segments in media and entertainment. Most companies are working on instinct, using consumer research that doesn't include a single creator. That's not a research gap - it's a strategic risk.
Consumer research wasn't built for creators. The questions don't fit, the framing doesn't land, and the signal is noise.
There is no direct line between companies and the creators they're building for.
By the time traditional research catches up, the moment has passed.
From question to answers in 3 steps.

What 252 creators told us - in 7 business days.
Thematic used Creator Signal to survey its own creator community on product direction, AI tools, and monetization. Here is what came back.
54% of creators said finding the right music is their single biggest challenge - confirming the core product was solving a real problem.
63% rated affiliate partnership interest at 4-5 out of 5 - the clearest yes signal in the entire survey, across every audience size.
46% scored AI voice cloning comfort at 0 out of 5. That finding redirected product investment before a single line of code was written.
These findings directly shaped Thematic's 2026 product roadmap - including the decision to build an affiliate partnership program and deprioritize AI cloning features entirely.
