INFLUENCER MARKETING
FOR GAMING AND LIVE STREAMING

MIRAI plans and runs brand campaigns with creators on Twitch, YouTube, Kick, TikTok and Instagram across North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America — nine collaboration formats, from a single sponsored stream to a season-long creator partner program.

Send a brief and a costed plan comes back: here is what that takes.

HOW AN ENGAGEMENT WORKS

Four steps from a five-line brief to a report you can put in front of a CFO. No rate card, because creator pricing moves with tier, format and market — but the plan is costed before anything is signed.

  1. 01

    Brief

    You

    A campaign starts from a short brief: the product or game, the markets it has to land in, a budget range, the metric it will be judged on, and the window it has to run in. A range is enough — a fixed number is not needed to build a first plan.

  2. 02

    Plan

    MIRAI

    Back comes a creator shortlist with audience size, language and rate per creator, the placement formats that suit the brief, and the reach and media value the plan is projected to deliver. The plan is costed before anything is contracted, so the budget question is settled first.

  3. 03

    Run

    Both

    MIRAI contracts the creators, briefs them, and holds them to what was agreed — placements live, talking points covered, disclosure correct. Brand approvals stay with the brand. Creator relationships, scheduling and chasing stay with the agency.

  4. 04

    Report

    MIRAI

    Reporting covers hours watched, average and peak viewers, airtime and media value, plus three things a standard influencer report does not carry: AI-detected spoken brand mentions with timestamps, banner exposure per participant, and chat and QR-driven redirects, clicks and installs.

WHERE WE RUN CAMPAIGNS

Four regions, and they are not interchangeable — creator rates, peak hours, the dominant platform and the language of the chat all change at the border. Figures below are live viewing from the Streams Charts warehouse, March to August 2026.

Southeast Asia

Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam

Mobile-first and the deepest creator pool we work in. Indonesia alone drew 101 million hours of Mobile Legends viewing in six months across 4,685 channels, the Philippines another 16 million. English carries about one hour of viewing in eight, so briefs run in Indonesian, Tagalog and Thai.

Middle East and Türkiye

Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Türkiye

PUBG Mobile is the centre of gravity: 19 million hours from Saudi Arabia and 16 million from Egypt in six months. Türkiye fields the widest creator pool of the region at 1,813 channels. Arabic creative and Ramadan timing matter more here than creator tier.

Latin America

Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Peru

Brazil is the single largest Free Fire market at 38 million hours from 489 channels, with Mexico, Argentina and Colombia behind it. Portuguese and Spanish are separate briefs, not one regional creative.

Europe and North America

Spain, Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Ukraine, the UK, the USA

The only region where Twitch is a primary surface rather than a rounding error. Spain leads European Brawl Stars viewing at 4.4 million hours; Clash Royale peaks in Mexico, Germany and the USA. Budgets are larger per creator and audiences skew older.

The full breakdown by title, platform and language is in the mobile gaming guide.

TEAMING UP CREATORS & BRANDS

End-to-end campaign management means MIRAI runs a live streaming campaign from brief to final report: creator shortlisting against audience and brand-safety criteria, rate negotiation, contracting, briefing, go-live monitoring, and a measured post-campaign report. Campaigns run on Twitch, YouTube, Kick, TikTok and Instagram, in nine collaboration formats ranging from a single sponsored stream to a multi-creator live takeover.

CREATOR PARTNER PROGRAMS

A creator partner program is an always-on roster of creators who promote a brand or game continuously, instead of a one-off campaign burst. MIRAI recruits the roster, sets tiering and payout rules, supplies briefs and assets each cycle, and reports on the program as a whole. Programs suit game publishers with a long live-service tail and hardware or subscription brands that need sustained presence rather than a launch spike.

BRAND CONSULTING

Consulting covers the decisions taken before a budget is committed: which platform and region fit the product, what a realistic CPM and cost per install look like in that category, which creator tier converts, and whether an esports sponsorship or a creator program is the better vehicle. MIRAI advises across live streaming, PC, console and mobile gaming, professional esports, and Web3 including DeFi and GameFi.

LIVE STREAMING

Which creators, categories and languages a brand should care about in a given market, how the platforms differ on rules and rates, and which events and collaboration formats are worth being part of. Covers North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America.

LIVE STREAMING

GAMING

PC, console and mobile: which titles hold an audience rather than spike, which mods and community formats matter, what players expect from a brand in their space, and which publishers are open to a collaboration.

GAMING

ESPORTS

How the competitive side is structured — titles, circuits, leagues and the broadcast studios that produce them — and where a sponsorship lands against a team, a player, a tournament or a co-stream.

ESPORTS

WEB3

Where crypto and gaming actually overlap: which Web3 titles have players rather than holders, what the DeFi and GameFi landscape looks like, and which platforms allow the category at all — a live brand-safety question.

WEB3

TALENT RECRUITMENT

For events, MIRAI sources and manages on-air talent: hosts, casters, analysts, interviewers and creators booked to cover a product launch, gaming festival or esports tournament. The work includes shortlisting by language and region, availability and rate negotiation, travel and on-site coordination, and briefing talent so coverage stays on message across every stream and clip.

MARKET INSIGHTS & ANALYSIS

Market analysis draws on the Streams Charts data warehouse, which tracks hours watched, airtime, peak and average viewers, chat activity and sponsorship signals across Twitch, YouTube, Kick and other platforms. Deliverables include category and title sizing, creator and competitor benchmarking, share-of-voice against rival brands, and regional trend reads for North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America.

EXCLUSIVE CAMPAIGN REPORTING

MIRAI reports on three signals most agencies cannot measure. Voice AI Recognition detects spoken brand mentions on stream and timestamps each one with a direct link. Banner Campaign Views tracks on-screen banner exposure, average viewers and media value per participant in real time. Chat & QR Code Analytics breaks out redirects, clicks and installs driven by chat commands and on-stream QR codes.

VOICE AI RECOGNITION

Our cutting-edge AI-based technology allows us to identify and recognize when influencers mention your brand, product, or game on stream, including context and the exact mention time.

We track how many times your brand was mentioned during sponsored broadcasts. We count total stats, average viewers, and provide you with direct links to every brand mention.

Banner Campaign Views

BANNER CAMPAIGN VIEWS

Our technology allows us to track campaign banner views, average viewers, and media value for every campaign participant. We see in real-time which live streamers have added banners to their streams and who still need to do it.

We categorize participating live streamers into campaign lists, providing comprehensive metrics, including total campaign views, total hours watched, total airtime, and total media value. We monitor when campaign banners were last visible.

CHAT & QR CODE ANALYTICS

We provide you with very detailed Chat and QR Code analytics, offering a comprehensive breakdown of total redirects, clicks, installs, and other key stats and metrics.

This insightful data will empower you to make informed decisions and optimize your marketing strategies for maximum brand exposure, performance and impact.

Brand campaign FAQ

What does MIRAI need to put a campaign plan together?
Five lines: what is being promoted, the markets it has to reach, a budget range, the metric it will be judged on, and the window it runs in. Platforms, excluded categories and available assets help but are not required. What comes back is a creator shortlist with rates and a costed plan.
How much does a Twitch or YouTube sponsorship campaign cost?
Cost depends on creator tier, format and duration rather than a fixed rate card. A single sponsored stream with a mid-tier creator sits at the low end; a multi-creator live takeover or a season-long partner program sits at the high end. MIRAI scopes a budget against a target CPM or cost per install before contracting.
How is a live streaming campaign measured?
Standard metrics are hours watched, average and peak concurrent viewers, airtime and media value. MIRAI adds three: AI-detected spoken brand mentions with timestamps, banner on-screen exposure per participant, and chat and QR-code driven redirects, clicks and installs.
What is media value in influencer marketing?
Media value is the estimated cost of buying the same exposure through paid advertising. For a live stream it is derived from hours watched and average viewers against a category CPM, which lets a sponsorship be compared like for like against a media buy.
Which collaboration formats does MIRAI offer?
Nine formats. On live streaming: sponsored stream, streaming together, live takeover, co-watching party, tournament broadcast and meeting the game developers. On video on demand: dedicated video, integrated placement and a video series.
Which regions does MIRAI cover?
North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America. Regional coverage matters because creator rates, peak viewing hours and dominant platforms differ sharply between them — Kick and Twitch split share differently in Europe than in Latin America, and mobile-first audiences dominate parts of Asia.
