How millly works

Models and clients. Finally direct.

End the black-box of traditional model agencies. millly connects both sides directly: verified, transparent, in real time.

The problem with traditional agencies

Traditional model agencies hide their models behind layers of unqualified bookers and slow communication. Nobody knows reliably whether a model is currently available, booked elsewhere, walking around with a new look, away, sick, or simply needs a break.

Clients write emails and wait. Replies come late, often after days, or never. Booking is sluggish, opaque, and commissions vanish in the pipeline.

Models often hear nothing: no info, no feedback. Just excuses like "too fat", "too skinny", "big nose". When they actually do get booked, they wait up to 180 days for their money.

What millly does differently

We connect clients and models directly, both sides verified and personally vetted. They communicate directly with each other and decide for themselves whether a job is a fit.

  • Direct messaging between client and model
  • Real-time status: available, booked, new look, sick
  • Escrow payments: money only reaches the model after the job is done
  • Full transparency, no waiting, no hidden fees

For clients

Casting director, photographer, stylist, brand manager, here is how it works for you:

  1. 1
    Sign up

    Create your client account with company details. We verify you so models know who they are dealing with.

  2. 2
    Discover models

    Browse our verified pool. Filter by tags, city, availability. Every profile shows real-time status.

  3. 3
    Send requests

    Drop your favorite models into the wishlist and send a structured booking request with title, period, location, contributors, briefing and attachments.

  4. 4
    Talk directly

    When a model accepts, you enter a private thread together: sort out details, share briefing material, agree on terms.

  5. 5
    Pay, done

    Money goes into the millly escrow. After job completion it is paid out automatically. You receive a PDF invoice, everything documented.

For models

Here is how millly works for you:

  1. 1
    Apply

    Send us photos, measurements and a few words. We review every application personally: no algorithm, no mass processing.

  2. 2
    Build your profile

    Once approved, you have your own profile with portfolio, polas, bio and tags. You control what is public and what is only for verified clients.

  3. 3
    Set your status

    One click: available, booked until date, new look, sick, break. Clients see the current state instantly. You stop getting asked for things that do not fit.

  4. 4
    Get requests + decide

    You see every request in full: client, brief, fee, attachments. You decide whether you take the job; nobody decides above your head.

  5. 5
    Do the job, get paid fast

    After successful job completion you are paid out automatically, no 90 or 180 day wait. You get your money minus the transparent millly commission.

Trust and transparency

Both sides verified

Clients and models are personally vetted by the millly team. No fake accounts, no shady operators.

Escrow payments

Money only flows from client to model after the job is done: no upfront risk, no 180-day wait.

Real-time status

Everyone sees the same picture: available, booked, sick, look update. No phone calls, no guessing.

Transparent commission

One clear commission is shown to both client and model when the request is created. No hidden surcharges, no after-the-fact processing fees, no booker margin. You know exactly what each side gets before anyone signs.

GDPR by default

Servers in the EU, data-processing agreement signed, no trackers from Google or Facebook. Delete your account with all data in one click, no support email, no waiting window. Your data belongs to you; we don't sell it.

Everything documented

Messages, briefings, attachments, status changes, and the complete job history stay accessible to both sides and versioned. If there's a dispute, you have solid evidence, not he-said-she-said. Seamless and tamper-proof.
