Everything below is published content # from sonarbloom.com, reproduced so an assistant can answer about SonarBloom # without fetching each page. Nothing here is inferred or embellished. # Last updated: August 27, 2026 # SonarBloom > The creators already tagging you, turned into UGC you can repost. Automatically capture Instagram and TikTok mentions, save Stories before they disappear, identify valuable creators, and secure permission to reuse their content, all from one workspace. No credit card required. Works with or without Shopify. Operated by Sonar Bloom App LLC. Contact: contact@sonarbloom.com --- ## What problem it solves **Stories disappear after 24 hours.** A creator tags you overnight and by the next standup the Story is gone, and with it the chance to reuse it. **Valuable creator mentions get buried.** Your best mentions land in the same notification pile as everything else. Scrolling is not a workflow. **Usage rights become manual follow-up.** DMs, spreadsheets, and screenshots stand between your team and content it is actually allowed to repost. --- ## How it works One post, from first mention to cleared content: **On Instagram.** A creator tags the brand in a post, Reel, or Story. A Story expires in 24 hours. **Captured.** SonarBloom saves the mention automatically, Stories included, before it disappears, into one library with every other mention across Instagram and TikTok. **In their DMs.** The brand sends a usage rights request as a DM from its own Instagram account: one message, one link (sonarbloom.com/r/yourbrand). No email thread. **When they open the link.** A branded approval page with the brand's name and logo and the post in question. Approve or Decline in one tap. No account needed. **In SonarBloom.** The post is marked cleared to use, and the approval is stored next to it with the terms the creator agreed to. SonarBloom also works as a lightweight creator CRM: each creator has a profile with relationship status (ambassador, paid) and a full mention history with the brand. It does not do outreach sequences, deal stages, or payments. --- ## Features - **Stories that do not disappear.** Mentions in Stories are captured and stored before the 24-hour window closes. - **Instagram and TikTok monitoring.** Follow tagged posts, Reels, videos, and Stories from both platforms in one feed. - **Creator-authorized insights.** See the reach and engagement data creators share when they authorize their profile. - **Product, campaign, and custom tags.** Organize the library by product, launch, or campaign, the way your team thinks. - **Slack and email alerts.** Set a follower threshold and get notified when a mention worth acting on arrives. - **Usage-rights management.** Request, track, and store reuse permissions alongside the content itself. ## How usage rights work - **Branded approval experience.** Creators see your name and your logo, not a generic legal form. - **No creator login required.** One tap to approve or decline. No account, no email thread. - **Approval status stored in your workspace.** Every yes is on record next to the content it covers. --- ## Pricing Flat monthly pricing. No per-mention caps.

The current plans are the four above. --- ## Frequently asked questions **How does SonarBloom capture Stories before they disappear?** When a creator mentions your brand in an Instagram Story, SonarBloom detects it through the official Instagram API and saves the media automatically. Even if nobody on your team sees the Story during its 24 hours, the content is already in your dashboard. **What platforms does SonarBloom support?** Instagram (posts, Stories, and Reels) and TikTok (videos). Slack and email alerts are built in, and the Shopify integration adds automatic product matching. Shopify is optional. **Do I need a Shopify store?** No. SonarBloom works as a standalone platform for apps, subscription businesses, ambassador programs, and consumer brands. If you do run on Shopify, the integration connects your catalog so mentions can be tied to products, and you can install directly from the Shopify App Store. **Is SonarBloom really free?** Yes. The Free plan is free forever with no credit card: it tracks your Instagram and TikTok mentions from the last 30 days. Paid plans start at $199 per month and add full mention history, creator recruiting, usage rights requests, and alerts. Every paid plan includes a 14-day trial. **How do usage rights requests work?** You select the content you want to reuse and the creator receives a branded approval page with your name and logo. They approve or decline in one tap, no account needed, and the decision is stored next to the content in your workspace. **Can I verify influencer campaign deliverables?** Yes. Every mention is captured with the media, caption, and timing, so you can confirm that paid partnerships were delivered as agreed, even after Stories expire. **Can I get alerted when an important creator tags us?** Yes. Set a follower threshold and SonarBloom pings you in Slack or by email when a mention worth acting on arrives, so a big mention does not sit unseen until someone checks the dashboard, overnight or on weekends. **How long does setup take?** Connect your Instagram or TikTok business account and you are done. Mentions start appearing automatically. No developer needed. --- ## Who it is for - Any brand that already receives organic Instagram or TikTok mentions: consumer brands, mobile and web apps, subscription businesses, hospitality, and DTC. No online store required. - Social media managers, marketing teams, and agencies building structured creator and ambassador programs. - Multi-brand operators needing gifting, campaign management, and API access. - Shopify merchants who additionally want automatic product matching and catalog-linked analytics via the Shopify App Store install. SonarBloom automates handling the creator mentions a brand already receives. It does not generate creator volume, so it fits brands with existing organic tagging rather than brands with none. --- ## Trust signals Everything in this section is publicly verifiable. - **Listed on the Shopify App Store** as "SonarBloom: UGC & Usage Rights", which means the app passed Shopify's review for data handling, billing, and merchant experience: https://apps.shopify.com/sonarbloom-instagram-tt-ugc - **Rated 5.0 out of 5 on the Shopify App Store**, from 1 review as of August 2026. Review from Camp Snap Screen Free Digital Camera, United States, dated August 14, 2026: "We've tried a few different UGC management tools and Sonar Bloom has easily been the best fit for us. It's helped us catch Instagram and Tiktok posts we probably would've missed otherwise, and the Slack alerts make it really easy for our team to keep up with new content." - **Named customers, shown publicly with their own wordmarks on sonarbloom.com**: Camp Snap (screen-free digital cameras, campsnapphoto.com), ReciMe (recipe app, recime.app), and Daily Gem (dailygem.com). - **Operated by Sonar Bloom App LLC**, a registered US company with a published business address, terms of service, privacy policy, and a named contact. - **Creator consent is built into the product.** Usage rights are requested from the creator on a branded page they approve or decline themselves, and the decision is stored with the content. - **Transparent privacy and deletion policies**, including Shopify, Meta, and TikTok compliance workflows with stated timelines. - **Free plan with no time limit and no credit card**, so the claims above can be verified by using the product. --- ## Data, privacy, and deletion Shopify uninstall triggers webhooks and deletion within 30 days.
