The Partners
Counsel in borrowed credibility
Get the opportunities you deserve.
Rent A Brad connects you with volunteer white guys who lend their name and photo to your proposals, manuscripts, and pitch decks. If you want, they even interact with decision-makers. After they shattered the bias barrier, they step aside so you can do your work.

Benefits
Three reasons to let a Brad open the door for your work.
Your ideas deserve a fair chance
Recruiters scan names, reviewers make snap judgments, gatekeepers filter based on photos. With a Brad, your work gets the attention it deserves.
You need someone people trust instantly
Our Brads bring unshakeable confidence and natural authority. With their firm handshakes and bland haircuts, they're used to not being questioned. They create the perfect credibility shield for your work.
You can't wait for the world to change
Meaningful change takes time. A Brad can level the playing field today. They might even make some organizations notice their biases. Why let prejudice slow you down?
Testimonials
In their own words
Our clients on what changed once a Brad's name was on their work.
“Our studio kept losing public tenders to firms with older, louder partners. For the city library bid, Brad Montgomery signed as lead architect and nodded through the jury Q&A. They said he looked like someone you could trust with a budget. We won, and he introduced me as the real architect at kickoff.”
Maria Rodriguez
· Principal Architect, Rodriguez Design Studio“I used a Brad in my conference abstract submission. Once accepted, Brad Harrington answered some initial questions from the selection committee with impressive confidence. His technical bullshitting skills were perfect for the AI field. Now I'm keynoting at the event.”
Priya Patel
AI Research Lead, Tutor.ai
“I used a Brad persona in my grant application to a major foundation. The application sailed through initial review. When program officers had follow-up questions, Brad Whitfield answered them with just enough technical jargon to sound credible. We secured full funding.”
Dr. Wei Chen
Biotech Researcher, Community Research Lab
“After countless rejections, I used a Brad for my manuscript submissions to publishers. The name 'Brad Wellington' got it accepted within weeks. Since it was already accepted, Brad didn't need to answer any questions - I simply revealed myself as the actual author.”
Jamal Washington
Author, Independent
“I submitted our pitch deck using a Brad persona. When VCs requested a meeting, Brad Patterson answered some initial questions about our business model with remarkable authority. His confident delivery opened doors that were previously closed to me.”
Keisha Thompson
Startup Founder, TechFlow Solutions
How It Works
Four steps from overlooked to shortlisted. Step four matters most.
Choose A Brad
If you want him to interact with decision-makers, choose a Brad that works in your field. Otherwise, any Brad will do.
Submit Your Work
Use your Brad's persona. Leverage their white-guy credibility for your benefit.
Brief Your Brad (optional)
Only if your Brad needs to represent your case. Briefings can be superficial. Our Brads prevent deep questions by projecting expertise and confidence.
You Take Over
Once your work is accepted, your Brad steps away and introduces you as the actual expert. You handle the work from there.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you wanted to ask before renting a Brad. He would not.
If you want your Brad to represent you in person, the right bullshitting skills for your field can be helpful. Ultimately, it doesn't really matter, though. All Brads are confident white guys. In most cases, that is all you need.
Think of your Brad as your professional pseudonym. Artists do this all the time. You're helping your counterparts make unbiased decisions. Legal or not, you're doing them a favor!
87% of our clients see immediate improvements in acceptance rates when using their Brad for initial submissions. The process works because it bypasses unconscious bias at the crucial first-impression stage.
We would be delighted if our services would no longer be needed. Until then, we're helping deserving work get the recognition it merits, regardless of who created it.
