Sukara Tech: The Home for Creator Growth
🛠️ Easy-to-use tools for creators to grow engaged audiences | 👩🏻💻 Website
Founder Sukara Technology Nivaaz
Hey, I’m Nivaaz, the creator of Sukara Technology.
At Sukara Tech, we transform how brands, creators, and shoppers interact. We do this by building easy-to-use tools for creators to monetise and grow engaged audiences.
🤔 The Problem
The affiliate industry was worth $17B worldwide in 2022, with the American market capturing $8.2B. The industry grows at roughly 10% annually.
Every single creator goes through the journey of growing pains as a creator. Through this process, we see common pitfalls in the interaction between creators & shoppers:
Creators: Growing as a creator involves overcoming challenges like competing for clicks, views, and engagement against more prominent influencers.
Shoppers: Shoppers struggle to find discount codes hidden in video content or long social media captions, often resorting to screenshots or notes, making them hard to find later.
Current solutions: Websites offering discount codes lack reliability, have poor UX, and feel scammy. They fail to connect the creator’s value to shoppers and brands.
On top of this, we’re seeing a global shopping trends change:
Trends: Younger shoppers (GenZ & Millennial) increasingly (62% more) value the efforts and values of brands and public figures they follow and buy from.
💡 The Solution
To capture more of the market, we want to offer resources at all stages of the creator journey to help creators grow and optimise their processes.
Web app - public search engine for influencer discount codes:
Shoppers - discover brands, creators, discount codes, and associated partnerships or discounts.
Creators - grow their audience & usage of their discount codes when customers discover and use them.
Brands - are recommended up-and-coming creators to collaborate with based on insights from our platform.
Digital products - AI-powered digital templates to streamline content creator workflows.

🛠️ How Do We Do It?
‘Sukara’ derives from Sanskrit and loosely translates to ‘easy to action’, which is the core of how we build tools at Sukara.
Easy to use — By building an excellent user experience with the creator, brand, and shopper in mind, our users are incentivised to return to the platform.
Creator-led — We work with creators to build features, optimise them, and use their data in a way that adds exponential value for them.
Growth and data-driven — From day 1, we’ve been focused on data and insights, along with experimentation, to design high-value and sticky platforms for our creators.
