Hi everyone! I’m AJ, the Founder @ Creator Match 🧩 (Building the #1 LinkedIn Creator Marketing Platform). This journey started with me as a LinkedIn Creator struggling to monetize. I was laughed at in creator communities because no one took LinkedIn seriously. But as I dug deeper, I found a thriving community of underserved, underpaid, and underappreciated LinkedIn Creators. So, I did what any rational person would do: I quit my comfortable Fortune 500 Management Consulting job to go all-in on solving this pain point. And that’s how Creator Match was born! 🧩 WHAT IS CREATOR MATCH? 🧩 It’s both a software platform and an agency, built to help brands crush marketing goals and get LinkedIn Creators PAID. We’re trusted by the world’s most innovative brands—like HubSpot, Notion, Framer, Teachable, Wix, BetterHelp, Acorns, beehiiv, and more—and LinkedIn’s most influential Creators to deliver impactful campaigns. Today, we’re launching our FREE Chrome Extension on Product Hunt, and we already have 500+ happy beta testers with close to 100 five-star reviews. The most common feedback we’ve received from beta users is: ‘How is this tool FREE?’ 🚀 FEATURES? 🚀 Creator Match supercharges your LinkedIn presence by helping you grow and monetize on LinkedIn. It’s the ONLY tool that allows you to: → Monitor competitors → Analyze winning content formats and engagement types → Refine your strategy with advanced filters, sorting, and search → Discover which LinkedIn Creators are running brand SPONSORSHIPS → Uncover post analytics of the BILLIONS of personal and company profiles Whether you're a Creator, Brand, Agency, Talent Manager, or really anyone who uses LinkedIn, this is a MUST-HAVE tool to unlock LinkedIn’s untapped potential—and we’re making it 100% FREE. 🛠️ WHY DID WE BUILD THIS? 🛠️ For anyone who creates content on LinkedIn, I think we can all agree that the analytics LinkedIn provides are horrible. LinkedIn doesn’t offer an API for any of this, so every feature you see in our free tool has been developed from scratch, and it's been insanely challenging. This took MONTHS of late nights, trial-and-error, and creative problem-solving to ensure the tool works seamlessly for you. As a Founder in my 20s, I put everything on the line (ie not taking a salary) to build something meaningful. From hostel hopping to couch surfing around the world, it’s been a journey of crazy hustle and sacrifice. But I’m so proud of what our tiny team has built, competing against the giants in the SaaS/Marketing industry. Creator Match is our way of leveling the playing field for LinkedIn Creators and empowering Brands to achieve results like never before. We’d love your feedback! Please let us know your thoughts, questions, or ideas in the comments below. Thank you for supporting us on this journey 💙 Cheers, AJ

I’ve been a beta user for Creator Match’s free chrome extension for LinkedIn and it’s been great! As a campaign manager, I’ve used it to analyze creator posts and profiles to ensure they’re a good fit for a campaign. My favorite feature is that the tool makes it easier to search for 1 post amidst 100’s with just 1 keyword. I 100% recommend!!!
Aj Eckstein
@jenny_harry love that you also love the keyword search across any creator's content!!
Michael Vavilov
Seems useful not only for creators but for company and personal branding also. Do I need to grant access to my LinkedIn account?
Aj Eckstein
@michael_vavilov Hey Michael! You just have to be logged in to LinkedIn to use the chrome extension and then the magic happens. Give the free tool a spin! And here's a features overview video walkthrough:

Creator Match is an absolute game changer for LinkedIn. As a creator with a 500,000 followers on LinkedIn, I can confidently say that CreatorMatch sets the bar when it comes to innovation and help for the creator community. Not only does this tool help creators stay organized and current with content and impressions, but it's the absolute best for diving deeper into specific analytics. Whether that's a paid campaign, brand partnership, or just assessing overall engagement, CreatorMatch is my literal fave for saving time while providing value. In short, if you're looking to save time, make money, and create on LinkedIn, this tool is as good as it gets. CreatorMatch is the best!

This tool is BADASS. Not only has this helped me close some brand deals but it has also helped me network with other creators who are doing brand deals and learn from them. Highly recommend it - it's literally free to use as a creator lol.

I’ve been building my personal brand on LinkedIn for a while now and Creator Match has been SO useful in helping me see how other creators are spacing out their sponsored posts. The Chrome extension also gave me engagement data on my own content which really helped me identify areas for improvement. Highly recommended tool for anyone looking to strategize their LinkedIn presence.

If you're just starting out on LinkedIn (or you’ve been on here for a while), this is the tool you need. Creator Match helps you take inspiration from top creators and winning posts without the guesswork. It shows you exactly what content gets traction, lets you track competitors, and helps you spot sponsorship opportunities. Honestly, it feels like a shortcut to LinkedIn success!
Aj Eckstein
@bianc_lopez we love not having to rely on guesswork. Love that you use it to find winning content formats!
Tami Oladipo
If you're a creator who plans to pursue brand partnerships on LinkedIn in 2025 (like me) then you NEED this extension. I've been a beta user for MONTHS now and just being able to see into what performs best from my content and the content of other creators in my niche has been a game changer for my approach. Run, don't walk!
