What is Creative Minds Zone
No creative mind should have to do it all alone.
You have the idea and the skill you love. But a business also needs a logo, photos, a website, a launch, maybe a shelf built by hand. Somewhere, someone loves doing exactly the part you don't.
Creative Minds Zone is an app that brings them together. It's a creative neighbourhood in your pocket, where designers, photographers, writers, makers, marketers and craftspeople find each other, work together and get paid for their skills.
Offer what you're great at. Your profile shows your work first, then the person behind it: what drives you, how you create and how you recover.
Meet creative minds like you. Meet is where you find like-minded people from the creative world — to talk, swap ideas and cheer each other on.
Apply for open positions. Offices are ideas looking for people. Apply for any position that fits your skills, or search for the logo designer or photographer your own idea needs.
Build something bigger. Open an Office, a small team of up to eight built around one idea, and turn it into a real business together.
How it works
From idea to real work, in four steps.
Meet like-minded people
Swipe in Meet to find creative minds like you. When you both say yes, the chat opens. Looking for work? Apply for open positions in Offices.
Meet for real
Plan a video call or a coffee right in the chat. After three real meetings you get the verified badge. No fake profiles, no AI users.
Work and get paid
Share sketches, files and deliveries right in the chat. When the founder says "looks great", the work is done — and soon, the money is released to you at that moment.
Payments coming soon
Offices
Where ideas become real.
An Office is a small team built around one business idea — and the place for open positions. The founder shows the idea with pictures, colours and the feeling, and opens positions for the skills that are missing. Anyone whose skills fit can apply.
- Everyone can apply. Apply for every position that fits your skills. The founder sees your work first, and if someone else is chosen, you hear it kindly — never silence.
- Up to eight people. Start with one open position and open more when you need them.
- The idea stays with its founder. The app records who opened the Office and when, and everyone who joins promises to keep its plans private.
- A team chat, files and meetings in one place — sketches, PDFs and deliveries included, so nobody has to chase anyone.
- Kudos. Every small win gets shared on the Zone page, so the whole neighbourhood can celebrate with you.
We don't do it all. We do it together.
Built on love and support, not on ratings and rankings.
Why it feels different
A kind place for ambitious people.
No stars, no rankings
Nobody is a number here. Profiles show real work and real people, and the Zone page celebrates wins instead of comparing them.
Real people, real meetings
Three meetings on video or in person give the verified badge. Everyone can report or block anyone, any time.
Side hustle or full-time
Whether you create in the evenings next to a day job or it's your whole living, the Zone is built for your pace.
Your work comes first
When someone is looking for your skill, they see your projects before your photo. Your work speaks for you.
Recovery matters
Creative work takes energy. The Zone shares how people fill the cup each week, so you get ideas for yours.
Open to everyone
Every creative mind is welcome, from anywhere in the world. Your data is stored in the EU.
What it costs
You keep everything you charge.
Joining is free. There are no memberships. When payments open in the app, the one who buys the work pays a small service fee on top, so the creative mind always gets their full price.

The brands born in the Zone.
The first stories are being written right now.

Yours could be next.
Open an Office for your idea and find the people to build it with.
Questions
Good to know.
Who is Creative Minds Zone for?
For every creative mind who wants to get paid for their skills: designers, photographers, writers, makers, marketers, stylists, craftspeople and anyone with an idea that needs other skills to come alive. Side hustle or full-time, beginner or experienced.
Is it free?
Yes. Joining and using the app is free and there are no memberships. When payments open in the app, the buyer of the work pays a 10% service fee. The creative always keeps their full price.
When can I pay and get paid in the app?
Payments are the next big update after launch. Until then, you agree on the work directly with each other. When payments open, the money waits safely until the work is approved and then goes to the creative.
Where is it available?
In all 27 EU countries. On iPhone, download it from the App Store. On Android or a computer, use it in your browser at app.creativemindszone.com — same account, same people. The Android app is coming next.
What is an Office?
A small team of up to eight people built around one business idea. The founder opens it, describes the mission and vision, and asks for the missing skills. Others can say "That's me", or the founder can invite them.
How do you keep it safe?
Profiles are made by real people with real photos. Three meetings give the verified badge. You can report or block anyone at any time, and every report is read. The app is for people aged 18 and over.
Who owns the idea in an Office?
The founder. The app records who opened the Office and when, and everyone who joins promises to keep the Office's plans private and not to start the same business from them.
What happens to my data?
Your data is stored in the EU, never sold, and there are no ads. You can delete your account and everything in it yourself, any time. Read more in the privacy policy.
