π― What is SponsorPulse?
As a model, UGC creator, and Data Science & AI undergrad, I know firsthand how frustrating it is when beauty and fashion brands slide into your DMs with a $200 "all-in" lowball offerβwhile quietly sneaking 45 days of paid ad whitelisting and category exclusivity into the fine print.
Most creators either leave thousands of dollars on the table or lose the deal by guessing a random counter-offer. For Hacktoberfest Week 2 ("Side Hustle"), I built the exact tool I wished I had on my Mac: SponsorPulseβa local-first quantitative deal desk and negotiation agent that prices usage rights mathematically and drafts hallucination-free counter-offers in seconds.
When a brand reaches out with a lowball offer and a tricky contract (like demanding 30 days of paid ad whitelisting and 15 days of category exclusivity for a fraction of your true worth), creators usually guess their worth or accept it out of fear. SponsorPulse uses TabPFN-3.5 to compute exact 10thβ90th percentile fair market rate cards and local Gemma 3:1b to draft psychologically grounded, bulletproof counter-offer emails.
π§ The Architecture: Why "Strict Separation" Wins
Small LLMs are notoriously bad at math. If you ask an LLM to price a brand deal, it will hallucinate random numbers.
To solve this, SponsorPulse implements a Deterministic Neuro-Symbolic Pipeline:
- TabPFN / Quantile Engine: Ingests historical deal logs (views, engagement, usage rights, whitelisting, exclusivity) to output precise probabilistic valuation bands (P10 walk-away floor, P50 median target, P90 enterprise stretch).
- Prior Labs Counterfactual Loop: Runs 5 parallel "What-If" queries to show the creator exactly how much cash is unlocked by tweaking contract terms.
- Local Gemma 3:1b Agent: Runs locally via Ollama on Apple Silicon (blazing fast at 120+ tokens/sec).
- Numerical Firewall: An AST/Regex verification layer inspects Gemma's output in real time to physically intercept any hallucinated numbers and enforce TabPFN's exact verified figures.

Built the counterfactual engine to run 5 parallel TabPFN passes so creators can see the exact dollar value of stripping paid usage rights vs. exclusivity. If anyone tests the live Judge Sandbox with their own niche metrics, let me know what P50 rate it gives you! Would love feedback on the Regex numerical firewall too.
