# Discovering Creators and Brands Aardvark is designed to work best when it reflects your real interests — the creators you already trust and the brands you already shop from. There’s no rush to follow everyone at once. You can start small and discover more over time. *** #### Discovering creators You can discover creators on Aardvark in a few natural ways: * Browsing creators by category or interest * Visiting a creator’s profile directly * Encountering a creator when one of their deals appears If you already follow creators elsewhere, starting with those familiar names is often the easiest way in. *** #### Discovering brands Brands on Aardvark appear because creators have added deals for them. That means: * You won’t see random or irrelevant brands * Every brand you encounter has at least one creator behind it You can explore brands directly, or simply let discovery happen naturally as you shop. *** #### A note on discovery Aardvark isn’t meant to overwhelm you with options. Discovery is intentional, not infinite. Over time, your follows and interests shape what you see — and what you don’t. You’re always in control. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
