Brand deals for food & cooking creators, run your way
Plug Pro is the back office for food and cooking creators who source their own deals. Package recipe integrations with a set scope, track gifted product and paid work separately in one pipeline, book restaurant visits on the same calendar, and deliver with a usage certificate. The brand pays you directly, with no per-deal fee.

Recipe deals, packaged
Turn "make something with our product" into a clean, priced package — the integration, the number of videos, and the usage rights the brand actually wants — so they say yes to a set scope, not a moving target.
Gifted and paid, never blurred
A free box of product isn't a paycheck. Track gifted PR and paid integrations side by side in one pipeline, so a comp never gets mistaken for a paid deal — or quietly done for free.
Keep 100%
Flat monthly price, zero per-deal fee. The CPG brand, the meal-kit, the local restaurant — every one of them pays you directly, and the whole amount is yours.
How does a food brand deal run on Plug Pro?
You landed the brand — the CPG DM, the meal-kit inbound, the restaurant that wants you in. This is everything after the yes.
Package the recipe
Send a priced package: the recipe integration, the number of videos, and the usage — organic vs. paid ads — so the brand agrees to a set scope, not an ever-growing ask.
Lock the terms
Agree the deliverables, the shoot date around the season, and the rate on one board — gifted product, paid fee, or both — and lock it before you cook.
Deliver with rights
Hand over the master with a usage certificate attached, so when the brand wants to run your recipe as an ad, it's already licensed and paid for — not a favor.
Get paid direct
The brand pays you directly. No escrow, no per-deal fee — whether it's a $200 integration or a holiday series, the full amount lands in your account.
How do I turn a restaurant tasting invite into a real gig?
Near Me surfaces local spots that host creators — a bakery comping a box for a reel shows up as a pitchable gig with the address attached.

The math on the food deals you source yourself, run through your own back office.
Questions, answered
How does Plug Pro help me run brand deals as a food creator?
You source the deals — the CPG DM, the meal-kit inbound, the local restaurant that wants you in — and Plug Pro runs them: package the recipe integration, lock the terms, deliver with a usage certificate, and get paid directly. Flat monthly price, zero per-deal fee, so you keep 100%. Plug Pro isn't a marketplace; it's your back office.
A brand offered me free product instead of pay. Is that a deal?
That's gifted PR, not a paid deal — and Plug Pro lets you track both without confusing them. Log the gifted product for what it is, and when a brand wants a recipe integration or usage rights, price and invoice it as the paid deal it should be. A free box is worth logging; it isn't a paycheck.
The brand wants to run my recipe video as an ad. How do I charge for that?
That's a usage license, and it's separate from making the video. On Plug Pro you set the channels and term — organic only, or paid ads too — and deliver a verifiable certificate that says exactly what they can run and for how long. When they boost your recipe, it's already licensed and paid for.
Do I need a separate tool for restaurant visits and appearances?
No. A comped restaurant visit or a paid in-person appearance books on the same calendar as your recipe deals, with the deposit, the day-of balance, and any must-says tracked on the record. One back office for the gifted shoots, the paid integrations, and the IRL tastings.
