MORE THAN FREE KEYS

Fresh key drops every week

A growing catalog of indie games with new key batches landing weekly. Claim, play, cover - and wishlist any game to get emailed the moment keys restock.

A direct line to developers

Message the studio behind any game and get your videos in front of them - your coverage never disappears into a void.

A portfolio that works for you

A public page with your channels and every video we tracked - developers browse it when they decide who gets keys.

Reputation tiers with real perks

Deliver coverage and your tier grows: more keys per day and early access to fresh drops before everyone else.

Request any Steam game

Not in the catalog? Ask for it - we chase the developer for keys on your behalf.

💰 Paid campaigns (beta)

Studios pay per 1,000 real views on your videos, from $500 budgets with only a 10% platform cut. The panel is open to every approved creator; the first campaigns launch soon.

Coming from Keymailer or jestr?
