Hi, I’m Kalgi, founder of Groop—an AI-powered creator-discovery platform. I’m a software developer turned full-time entrepreneur, experimenting with new solutions for the creator economy.

We started in February 2025 with the idea of building a creator community. Our very first feature let creators find and chat with peers nearby—fueling authentic collaboration.

The app currently flaunts AI-powered discovery using simple prompts. You can filter creators by category, gender, location or followers and instantly see their Instagram metrics and rates.

Today, Groop hosts 200+ creators and 50+ brands, all tapping into data-driven insights instead of guesswork. Our vision is simple: make brand-creator collaborations seamless, deliver the best ROIs for brands, and open up growth opportunities for creators.

As an individual, I thrive on novelty. When I’m not building Groop, I’m either connecting with founders to hear their stories, diving into sector research or creating content.

Connect with me to swap ideas, explore partnerships or just chat about where the creator landscape is headed.
