‘IMDb for Creators’ launched
The Creators Guild-backed 'IMDb for Creators' platform is live, promising verifiable credits and a public record for digital creators—helpful for pitching longer-term brand roles or proving campaign experience to hiring teams (hollywoodreporter.com). This could become a standard credential for content creators seeking salaried or agency-aligned positions.
Mosaic — the Creators Guild of America’s credentialing platform — moved into an open beta on March 24, 2026 under CGA leadership headed by former Producers Guild arbitrations administrator Daniel Abas. (hollywoodreporter.com) A few thousand beta testers had signed up before the open-beta roll‑out, and the CGA says all submitted credits will be verified by third parties against the organization’s “professional eligibility standards.” (hollywoodreporter.com) For individual eligibility, the CGA requires influencers to have been paid by a brand, agency or platform or to maintain a paid subscriber base of at least 10 people as an example of the standards used to judge credits. (hollywoodreporter.com) The CGA is organized as a 501(c)(6) nonprofit founded in 2023 and charges membership dues of $99 per year, with the Media membership requiring any two qualifying metrics such as 10,000 followers across up to three platforms or 25,000 monthly website visits. (creatorsguildofamerica.org) Members can submit an unlimited number of works for “Created by” recognition while non‑members are capped at five credits, and submitted projects require evidence with a CGA team response promised within 48 hours. (creatorsguildofamerica.org) Mosaic issues a unique Creator ID to participants to distinguish similar names and to help guard against fraudulent promotions, and trade coverage going back to March 2024 framed the tool as a way to legitimize short‑form and creator‑economy contributors.
