dear tired creator,
your brand deals
and content, in one place.
Every sponsorship on one board — what you agreed, what’s due, who still owes you — sitting next to the video that pays for it. No more rebuilding the picture from Gmail, Sheets and memory.

kero, your new asst.
Hi! We’d love to send you our new launch. Budget around $4,500, would you be open to…
chapter 1 / the chaos
You’re running a media business on 14 tabs.
Brand emails in Gmail. Deals in Sheets. Drafts in Notion. Money chases in WhatsApp. Every Sunday you spend three hours just figuring out where you are.
47 unread brand emails
tab 9: deals_FINAL_v3
agent: "circling back?"
sponsorship dashboard 2.0
Patrick: "u sent invoice?"
shoot delivery — TODAY
chapter 2 / how kero works
Three steps. No setup.
Forward the email.
just hit forward, that's it
Any brand email, sponsor pitch, agency thread. Send it to your secret HeyKero address.
File it against a deal.
one click, then never again
Brand, fee, deliverables, deadline, exclusivity — one place, slotted into the right deal stage. Every reply in the thread files itself.
Deals and videos, one board.
finally, one place
Each deal sits next to the video that fulfils it. Daily action inbox, invoice nudges, deadline pings — you only show up for the human stuff.
chapter 3 / what kero does
Tiny tools, big quiet.
All the boring deal admin you keep forgetting to do — in one place, where you can actually see it.
Kanban that actually fits creator life.

chapter 4 / switching
You already track deals
somewhere.
We wrote down how each of them actually holds up — including the cases where we’d tell you to stay exactly where you are.
- A spreadsheetFree forever, and it has never once told you an invoice is late.vs HeyKero
- NotionLovely boards. Automations only fire when a property changes, so a due date can pass in silence.vs HeyKero
- AirtableThe strongest build-it-yourself option — if you want to be the person maintaining it.vs HeyKero
- HoneyBookContracts and e-signatures done properly. Built for client work, not sponsorships.vs HeyKero
- PassionfrootA storefront that brings inbound to you, and takes a percentage of the deals it sources.vs HeyKero
- All six, side by sideread the roundup
chapter 5 / questions
Things creators
always ask first.
Honest answers, written by a human (with a frog looking over the shoulder). Don’t see yours? Just ask — we read every email.
No. You keep your normal email. Kero gives you a secret forwarding address — you just hit forward (or set up a Gmail filter once) and the thread shows up in your deal inbox.
They land in your HeyKero inbox with the forward scaffolding stripped, so you see the original brand message. Link the thread to a deal once and every later reply files itself under that same deal. Kero only ever sees what you forward — never your full inbox.
Emails are encrypted at rest, never used to train models, and never shared with brands or other creators. You can delete any deal — and your whole account — in one click.
Every field on a deal is editable — fee, deliverables, deadline, exclusivity. Change it once and the pipeline, the calendar and the invoices follow. The full history of what changed stays on the deal.
Yep. One button, no calls, no “retention specialist” email. You keep access until the end of your billing period and can export everything as CSV.
No. Kero handles admin: filing, invoicing, nudges, deadlines. Your manager still negotiates the deal — they’ll just stop chasing you for status updates at 11pm.
No. HeyKero is the operations layer for sponsorships you already land on your own. We don't sell your data or broker deals. Your relationships, your terms — we just make the workflow effortless. Passionfroot is the tool to look at if what you actually need is more inbound.
HeyKero vs PassionfrootPerfect time to start. The habit of logging every inbound (even a one‑line DM) means nothing slips, and you build a sponsor CRM from day one. The Free plan covers you fully until you scale — there’s no limit on deals.
