Built for creators & their teams

Only pay when your account actually comes back.

Middleman holds payment in escrow while a recovery helper works on getting your hacked Instagram or TikTok account back — funds release only once you confirm you're back in and it sticks.

1

Describe your case

Tell us what happened to your account and who's helping you get it back.

2

Funds held, not spent

Once live, payment sits in escrow — your helper doesn't get paid until you confirm you're back in.

3

Stability window, then release

We wait to confirm the account stays yours before releasing funds — so no one can re-lock you out for leverage.

Made for both sides of the deal

Whether you're the one who got hacked or the one doing the recovering — or a brand and a creator closing a sponsorship — Middleman sits neutrally in the middle.

For account owners

Stop guessing who to trust

Paying a stranger upfront for account recovery is one of the most common scams creators face. Escrow removes that risk entirely.

  • Funds only release after you verify you're back in
  • A stability window protects against re-lock tactics
  • No payment collected until the system is fully live
For recovery helpers

Get paid for real work

Proof the client's payment is real and waiting — before you put in the time.

  • Funded case before you start work
  • Clear release conditions, no chasing invoices
  • Build a track record on a platform designed for trust

Why a middleman at all?

Account recovery has a trust problem in both directions: creators are wary of paying upfront to someone who might disappear, and helpers are wary of doing the work without any guarantee of payment. An escrow holder solves both sides — but only if it's actually neutral, licensed, and accountable. That's what we're building toward.
