CollabGPS's New Badges Could Change How You Find Collabs

Thomas Schneider · 2026-10-22

CollabGPS is heading to EXXXOTICA New Jersey from October 23-25 at the New Jersey Convention & Exposition Center. Founder Ted Buras will be there to showcase the platform's new Verified Creator badge system and give a sneak peek of an overhauled invitation system. If you're a creator who's tired of the guesswork in finding reliable collaborators, this is worth a look. ### What's the Big Deal with Verified Badges? The verification system, which recently launched, lets users apply for professional badges in five categories: Content Creator, Adult Performer, Media/Podcaster, Social Media, and Production Support. Once verified, your profile gets a badge, and others can filter searches by verified status. That means when you're looking for someone to work with, you can quickly see who's taken the extra step to prove they are who they say they are. But it goes further: ID verification is now required to create a CollabGPS profile at all. That adds a layer of confidence for everyone. As Buras puts it, "Verification gives people more information when they're deciding who to work with." It's like a background check for the creator economy—simple, but powerful. ### More Than Just Scheduling Collabs At EXXXOTICA, Buras will also preview an expanded invitation system that goes way beyond booking a simple collab. You'll be able to coordinate partner streams, media appointments, groups, and even parties. For larger plans, you can assign co-hosts. This flexibility is designed for collab houses and creators juggling multiple people, projects, or appointments at once. "The new invitation system takes planning much further than simply booking a collab," Buras says. "We want the platform to handle the different ways creators work together, whether that's a shoot, a stream, an interview, or a whole house event." So whether you're organizing a single shoot or a full-blown event, CollabGPS aims to be your central hub. ### Why This Matters for Creators If you've ever tried to network in the adult content world, you know the struggle: missed connections, sketchy DMs, and endless back-and-forth. CollabGPS wants to fix that. It's a Denver-based platform built specifically for content creators who want a cleaner, more professional way to find and manage collaborations. The app centralizes partner discovery, scheduling, secure messaging, and media sharing into one structured workspace. And it's available globally on mobile and web, so you can use it wherever you are. The focus is on safety, clarity, and efficiency—so you can spend less time chasing logistics and more time producing content. > "EXXXOTICA is a great place to show creators what CollabGPS can actually do for the way they work." – Ted Buras ### What to Expect at EXXXOTICA If you're attending EXXXOTICA New Jersey, stop by the CollabGPS booth.
