Hyper-local B-roll for every street in America
Uploaded by creators. Used by the pros who know the difference.
Real creators. Real cities. Real moments. Crowdsourced by working creators, royalty-free for the people who need it, and paid forward to the creators who shot it.
Why I built this
BrollCollective is how you do it. I built this because as a content creator and real estate advisor in Seattle, I kept running into the same wall. The big stock libraries don’t have the corner bagel shop in your favorite neighborhood, the specific Pike Place restaurant where you brought your friends, the moment that actually feels like home.
So we’re building it together. Real creators in real cities, royalty-free for the people who need the footage, royalty paid forward to the people who shot it.
How it works
One marketplace, two sides. Creators upload the blocks they live on, subscribers download the footage they need, and the math runs in the background so everyone gets paid the moment a clip earns.
Pull out a phone on a Capitol Hill rooftop or a Ballard side street, tag the exact GPS, and the clip is in the library in under 60 seconds. No drone, no production day, no permission slip from a stock board.
Every upload passes through human review for quality, rights compliance (including model releases for any recognizable person), and taxonomy accuracy. Safe-harbor, DMCA agent on file, the whole boring-but-important stack.
Agents, creators, and restaurant owners pull unlimited clips for Reels, listing videos, menu launches, and client decks. Commercial use, no attribution required, no per-clip license to chase down.
$0.50 per download, paid the moment a buyer downloads. No monthly accounting, no waiting until the cycle closes. Every download, every time, for as long as the clip lives in the library.
Coverage roadmap
Every upload is pinned to its exact GPS location. The more creators in a city, the richer the library, and the faster subscribers find the perfect clip for their next Reel or listing.
