AlleyBloom

AlleyBloom is a marketplace that matches local businesses — salons, studios, cafes, fitness centres — with nearby content creators. Businesses post campaigns with an offer, often a complimentary service, and specify the content they want, such as a TikTok video or Instagram post; creators apply, and the platform handles scheduling and verifies the content once it is posted.

Local service businesses increasingly depend on social media for bookings, but arranging creator collaborations still happens through direct messages and ad hoc rate negotiations. AlleyBloom's pitch is to standardise that exchange and attribute bookings back to the creators who drove them.

Detail on the origin is thin. The company was founded in 2026 and is based in Los Angeles, and ran an early access period during which the business subscription was free.

Co-founder Yigan Zhang has worked at Addepar and Amazon and studied at the University of California, Irvine. Co-founder Wenwei Wu's background is not disclosed.
