The project pairs VTuber work with paid employment support for people who face difficulty with general employment because of illness or disability, treating the surrounding production roles as work rather than a hobby pipeline.

Link Music has launched Link Ally, a VTuber-focused training and employment support project run with Type B continuous employment support offices. Recruitment opens Tuesday, September 1, 2026 and runs through Thursday, October 1. The project takes members in three fields: VTuber candidates, creators, and operations or staff. Participants can work across illustration, Live2D, video, music, events, merchandise production, and management, with no experience or skills required.
At partner Type B continuous employment support offices, participants take on VTuber activity, illustration, video, music, events, merchandise production, and management as training and production work, and receive wages in the applicable production activities.
Link Music says the curriculum is produced by active VTubers and creators, drawn from its own VTuber business. The three recruiting fields are VTuber candidates, who stream, sing, commentate games and appear at events; creators, who handle illustration, video, Live2D, music production and mixing; and operations staff, who handle management, event planning, social media and merchandise planning.
- VTuber candidates: streaming, singing, game commentary, video, SNS and event appearances
- Creators: illustration, video, Live2D, music production, mixing and recording
- Operations/staff: management, event planning and operation, SNS, merchandise planning and production
