AI Discovery Reaches General Availability After 11-Month Beta
KALO IQ today made AI-assisted creator discovery generally available to all paid plan customers, ending the 11-month private beta. The feature generates ranked creator shortlists from natural-language campaign briefs in under 90 seconds across the 100M verified US creator database.
What changed at GA
AI Discovery is now available on Starter ($79/mo), Growth ($199/mo) plus Agency ($399/mo) plans. The beta version was limited to Growth plus Agency. Free plan users get a preview mode that returns the top 5 results without contact data.
Beta lessons applied
The 11-month beta surfaced two improvements that ship at GA. First, the reasoning attached to each recommended creator is now more specific about audience-fit signals. Second, the system now prefers verified-only profiles in its rankings, reflecting Q2 2025 ROI research findings that verified-only pools deliver 2.1x higher returns.
Sub-90-second shortlists
Median response time for a shortlist request is 78 seconds. P95 response time is 2 minutes, 12 seconds. The system handles concurrent requests per workspace with no documented throughput limit at current scale.
