The gold Early Creator badge: only 100 will ever exist
7 September 2026 · Soraivy Team
Every platform has its first creators: the people who showed up before it was popular, gave honest feedback, and helped shape what it became. The gold Early Creator badge is our thank-you to them. Only 100 of these badges will ever be given out.
What the badge means
The gold badge says: this creator was here early. It appears next to the channel name across Soraivy. In a few years, when the platform is much bigger, it will be a small piece of history on your channel.
Why only 100?
A badge that anyone can get means nothing. By keeping it to 100, the gold badge stays special. Once all 100 slots are given out, applications close for good. We will not reopen them or make a second batch.
How to apply
- Sign in and open Studio → Badges.
- Choose Early Creator.
- Fill in the form and submit.
- Wait for our team to review it.
Approval is manual and not guaranteed. We look for real creators who are actively posting, not empty accounts made just to grab a slot.
How to improve your chances
- Post a few real videos before you apply.
- Set up your channel with a picture, banner and About text.
- Engage with the community: comment, reply and take part.
- Follow our Community Guidelines.
What early creators give us
Early creators are the ones who find our bugs, tell us what’s confusing, and ask for the features that later everyone uses. A lot of what Soraivy is today started as a message from one of them. The badge is a small way of saying that mattered.
Does the badge help my videos rank?
No. Like every badge, it has no effect on SoraPulse ranking. It’s about recognition, not reach. Your videos still rise or fall on how viewers respond to them.
Can I have it with another badge?
Each channel shows one main badge at a time. If you later reach 100,000 admirers, you could apply for Blue Verified. Choose the one that best tells your story.
Don’t wait too long
If you are reading this and slots are still open, this is your chance. When they are gone, they are gone. Head to Studio → Badges and apply today.
Questions creators often ask
How do I know if slots are still open? If the Early Creator option is available in Studio → Badges, you can still apply. Once all 100 are taken, it closes.
I applied but was turned down. Can I try again? Yes, while slots remain. Most of the time, it is because the channel was new or empty. Post a few real videos, set up your profile, and apply again.
Will I lose the badge if I stop posting? The badge is a thank-you for being early, so we do not remove it just for taking a break. It can be removed if a channel breaks our rules.
Can a brand get the gold badge? No. The gold badge is for individual creators. Brands have their own silver Brand badge.
And if the slots are already gone when you read this, don’t worry. There are other badges to work toward, and being active early still helps you grow with the platform.
