Your trips already happened. Now they can help someone else.
We're inviting 25 travelers with real, first-hand destination knowledge to shape Layag from the start.
3 of 25 founding spots filled
Built for people who've actually been.
Experience over followers
Guides are valued for what you know, not how many people follow you.
Turn your trips into guides
Package the places, routes and tips you already share for free.
You stay in control
Your prices, your content, your schedule.
From trip to guide in four steps.
Step 1: Create a guide in Creator Studio
Add your destination, the places you recommend and your tips. Start from scratch, or import a draft from your YouTube video, blog post or PDF.
Step 2: Set your price and publish
Save drafts while you work, then publish to the Layag marketplace when it's ready.
Step 3: Travelers unlock it
Travelers planning that trip find your guide and unlock it with a one-time purchase.
Step 4: Track how it's doing
Your dashboard shows earnings, guides published, unlocks and followers.

What we're building next.
Shaped by feedback from our founding creators.
- Coming soon
Short videos inside guides
Show a place, not just describe it.
- Coming soon
Ask a Creator
Paid personal video answers to travelers' questions.
Already in Creator Studio from that feedback: importing a guide from a link or PDF, photos with credits on every place, a map of your places, and update notifications so travelers know a guide is current.

Questions creators ask.
Do I need a big following?
No. We care about first-hand experience of the places you write about.
Do I keep ownership of my content?
Yes. You own your guides and content. Layag only needs permission to host and show them to travelers who unlock them.
Is it exclusive?
No. Keep publishing wherever you like.
Do I have to promote Layag?
No. It's entirely optional.
How do payments work?
Travelers unlock guides with a one-time in-app purchase through the App Store or Google Play. Your dashboard shows your earnings from each sale, and payouts are sent monthly to the payout details you add in the app, which only you can see. Today, creators in Pakistan can be paid by bank transfer, JazzCash or Easypaisa. Payouts for creators in other countries are being set up, and we'll confirm how you'll be paid before you commit.
What are the terms?
Founding creators get better terms than standard creators. You'll receive the full terms to review before committing to anything.
Can I join from outside North America?
Yes, we welcome creators from anywhere. Payouts outside Pakistan are still being set up, so we'll confirm how you'll be paid before you commit.
What happens after I apply?
We review every application personally and reply by email.
