Quick answers
01What is the best YouTube sponsorship platform?
Mysocial is our pick for creators who want to research brands with their AI assistant and manage the resulting partnerships. MeetSponsors and SponsorRadar focus on YouTube sponsorship research. YouTube Creator Partnerships provides native brand enquiries for eligible channels, while Collabstr lets creators sell defined content packages.
02Can small YouTube channels use sponsorship platforms?
Check the requirements of each platform separately. Mysocial Partnerships has no follower minimum, but requires a connected channel and a paid plan. YouTube Creator Partnerships requires eligible YouTube Partner Programme membership. Access to a tool does not mean a brand will select your channel for a campaign.
03Is YouTube BrandConnect still available?
YouTube now calls the programme Creator Partnerships in its help documentation. Eligible creators can receive brand enquiries and use partnership tools in YouTube Studio. Availability and the exact experience depend on your country and channel eligibility, so check the Earn section and the current YouTube requirements.
04Are YouTube sponsorship platforms free?
Costs differ by business model. Collabstr has no upfront creator charge but takes a 15% transaction fee on a sale. MeetSponsors advertises a free initial analysis. Mysocial Partnerships requires a paid plan. Check what a free account actually unlocks before relying on it for contacts or outreach.

The best YouTube sponsorship platform helps you find brands that fit your channel and take the next step toward a deal. That next step could be researching a sponsor, finding a contact, receiving a campaign enquiry or selling a defined video package.

**Mysocial is our pick for creators who want to build their own brand pipeline.** Its [Partnerships workflow](/sponsors/) connects brand research through your AI assistant with the contacts, notes and opportunities you keep in the app. The other platforms below serve different parts of that process.

## YouTube sponsorship platforms compared

| Platform | Best fit | How you find work | Cost or access to check |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Mysocial** | Building your own brand pipeline | Research through Claude or ChatGPT; keep leads and contacts in Partnerships | Paid plan, connected channel and AI connection; no deal commission |
| **MeetSponsors** | Finding brands matched to a YouTube channel | Channel recommendations, sponsor research and outreach preparation | Free initial analysis; check plan limits for contact access |
| **SponsorRadar** | Investigating sponsorship history | Explore brands and the YouTube channels they have sponsored | Public research pages; verify access needed for the full workflow |
| **YouTube Creator Partnerships** | Receiving native brand enquiries | Brands discover eligible channels through YouTube | Channel and country eligibility apply |
| **Collabstr** | Selling a defined video package | Brands discover and purchase your listed services | No upfront creator cost; 15% transaction fee on sales |

Choose by the job you need to complete. A database of past sponsorships helps you research prospects. A marketplace helps brands book you. Neither turns every listed brand into an open campaign.

## 1. Mysocial: best for building your own brand pipeline

Mysocial brings your channel context and partnership research into the same workflow. Connect your YouTube channel, connect Mysocial to Claude or ChatGPT, and ask your assistant to research brands for a specific audience and video idea.

The current **Find brands** flow prepares a prompt for your assistant. Research and contact work happen through that connection; the Partnerships panel holds the leads, notes and stages that come back. You can return to a brand with the context from your last conversation still attached.

For a tutorial channel, that means starting with the products your audience actually needs, then finding the relevant people at those companies. You review the evidence and send the pitch yourself.

**Choose it when:** you want to pursue brands proactively and manage the relationship beyond the first email. **Know before joining:** Partnerships requires a paid plan. It does not provide escrow, send your outreach automatically or promise that a researched brand has a sponsorship budget. See the [current Mysocial plans](/pricing/).

## 2. MeetSponsors: best for channel-based sponsor recommendations

[MeetSponsors](https://meetsponsors.com/) starts with your YouTube channel URL and advertises recommendations based on your niche and content. Its published workflow includes sponsor activity, contact information and help preparing outreach.

That is useful when your first problem is deciding which brands belong on your list. The initial analysis is advertised as free; check the selected plan’s contact and outreach allowances before subscribing. The platform says you handle the outreach and it takes no commission on your deals.

**Choose it when:** you want a YouTube-focused starting list. Treat any budget estimate as a research clue, then confirm the brand’s actual brief and offer directly.

## 3. SponsorRadar: best for researching who sponsors similar channels

[SponsorRadar](https://sponsorradar.com/) organizes detected YouTube sponsorships around channels and brands. Its [brand directory](https://sponsorradar.com/brands) is useful for investigating whether a company has already appeared in videos aimed at an audience like yours.

Use the history to ask better questions: which formats did the brand support, how recently, and on what kind of channel? Open the underlying videos before using that evidence in a pitch. A previous sponsorship does not establish the fee paid or an available budget today.

**Choose it when:** your missing piece is sponsorship evidence. Check the access you need for deeper research; we could not establish a clear current plan price from its public pricing link.

## 4. YouTube Creator Partnerships: best for native brand enquiries

YouTube’s own programme, formerly BrandConnect, is now called **Creator Partnerships**. Its [official help page](https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9385307?hl=en) describes brand enquiries, a media kit and desired-rate settings for eligible creators.

Requirements include being at least 18, eligible YouTube Partner Programme membership, an available country and no active Community Guidelines strikes. The experience varies by region; check **YouTube Studio → Earn** and the requirements for your location.

**Choose it when:** your channel is eligible and you want another route for brands to discover you. Keep researching suitable brands yourself while you wait for enquiries.

## 5. Collabstr: best for selling defined video packages

[Collabstr](https://collabstr.com/creator) lets you list services and prices so brands can discover and order your work. For a YouTube creator, the useful question is whether your offer can be described clearly enough to buy: a dedicated review and a short integration are different deliverables.

Its [creator FAQ](https://collabstr.com/faq) confirms YouTube support, no upfront cost and a **15% transaction fee when you make a sale**. Payments are handled through the platform and held until the order is completed under its approval process.

**Choose it when:** you want a storefront and payment workflow. Account for the fee when setting your price, and define revisions and deliverables before accepting an order.

Note

Start with your next task

**No shortlist yet:** try Mysocial for research tied to your brief, or MeetSponsors for YouTube-specific recommendations. **Need evidence of previous sponsorships:** investigate SponsorRadar. **Want inbound opportunities:** check Creator Partnerships eligibility or list a clear package on Collabstr.

Small channels should check access requirements before paying for a tool. Then prepare comparable recent video results, a clear audience description and a credible content idea. Our guide to [getting YouTube sponsors](/blog/how-to-find-youtube-sponsors/) covers that preparation in more detail.

## From a video idea to a sponsor shortlist

Imagine a channel that teaches freelance designers how to run client projects. Its next video covers handing over a finished website. **This is a hypothetical planning example**, not a report of sponsors found or deals won.

Start with three plausible categories: website hosting, client handover software and project-management tools. Keep a simple research sheet:

| Field | What to record |
| --- | --- |
| Audience fit | Why viewers would use this product |
| Evidence | Relevant product page or a dated sponsorship example |
| Contact | A relevant business role or official partnership route |
| Video concept | The specific moment where the product helps |
| Next action | What you will check or send next |

With Mysocial connected to your assistant, use a brief like this:

> Research brands for my YouTube video about client website handovers. Use my connected channel and ask for any missing audience information. Suggest relevant companies, cite the evidence for each and distinguish past sponsorships from unconfirmed opportunities. Find appropriate business contacts and save the strongest leads in Partnerships. Draft nothing until I choose the brands.

Review the shortlist, attach a [media kit with your channel evidence](/blog/how-to-build-the-ultimate-influencer-mediakit/), then use the [creator pitch guide](/blog/pitching-brands-as-an-influencer/) to write a specific approach. Five well-researched prospects are a manageable starting exercise; they are not a promised response rate.

Turn your next video idea into a brand shortlist. Connect your channel and AI assistant, then keep the research in Partnerships.

Partnerships requires a paid plan. You review and send every pitch.

## Choose one workflow and complete it

Compare tools by whether they help you reach a relevant person with a credible video proposal. Start with one research route, keep the evidence and follow the opportunities you create.

If you also publish on Instagram, use the separate [Instagram sponsorship platform comparison](/blog/best-instagram-sponsorship-platforms/). For the wider process, explore the [brand-deal guides](/blog/hub/creator-monetization-brand-deals/).
