In addition to influencer search tools, Brandwatch also offers a range of other useful features like streamlined workflows and real-time customizable reports to help with other stages involved in influencer marketing.

Channels: Instagram, YouTube, TikTok. Coming soon: Facebook, Twitch, X (Twitter)

Pricing: Multiple plans for brands and agencies, from $460/mo (minimum 3-month subscription required for all plans, plus one-time $395 onboarding fee).

Creator.co focuses as much on creating content as it is on the distribution of that content. It offers two versions of its influencer marketing software. One is “full access,” much like most other influencer software covered in this post. Here you build and post your campaign, search, filter, and invite creators, analyze and active creators, and then watch their content roll in. Alternatively, you can opt for more automated influencer marketing software services. You begin by onboarding with a campaign specialist and leave Creator.co to handle recruiting, negotiating, and execution. Your specialist will then recruit influencers for you, with you analyzing and activating those that interest you. Again, you can sit back and watch the content roll in.

You begin by defining and creating a campaign no matter which option you choose. You can either customize your campaign or pick a prefabricated type. For example, the ShoutOut campaign offers the exchange of free products for exposure (along with cash if necessary). The Giveaways campaign allows you to work with influencers to drive followers to your profile by running contests for free stuff. 

In addition to self-serve and managed collaborations, Creator.co offers managed services, including paid ad management and social media management. They have continued to make upgrades to the platform, including a marketplace (their Collaboration Hub) where brands can connect their store, list products, and invite creators, publishers, and influencers to promote the brand through their storefronts. In addition, Creator.co lets brands run affiliate programs through the platform. Here, you connect your store, select the products, and set commissions. You can invite your fans and other influencers to apply and build your community. The platform allows you to track all shares, clicks, and conversions from your affiliates, with commissions being automatically paid.

7. Influencity

8. #paid

Best For: DTC brands, agencies, and B2C businesses of all sizes

Channels: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok

Pricing: #paid has three pricing plans from $499/mo. All permit unlimited campaigns per month, with at least 10 hand-raised creators per campaign. The higher plans add creator whitelisting licenses and additional features.

Although #paid functions like any other influencer marketplace, it differs in two key aspects. Firstly, it allows for Whitelisted Ads. You can whitelist specific creators and content for use with paid Facebook and Instagram ads. #paid connects with Facebook Ads Manager and allows these ads to be pushed into timelines and feeds under the creator’s actual handle. This gives these posts a more authentic feel to audiences. You can reach your target audience without being restricted to just those who follow your influencer.

Secondly, #paid gives you a Handraise. Here, interested influencers can “raise” their hand to signal interest and wait for brands to call upon them. Creators who use a Handraise write a message describing why they believe they’re a good fit, and what their strategy for a campaign might be. #paid has a team of people who vet each Handraise.

Creators set their rates upfront, so there’s no time wasted going back and forth negotiating. Brands put together an order for content, e.g., two posts and two stories for Instagram. This makes it easy to see where their budget is going.

#paid has taken the foundation of what a marketplace is and transformed it into something much more. Their target customers are large businesses with big marketing budgets.

Key Features: Influencer Marketplace, Automated Recruiting, Content Review, Content Library, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, Payment Processing, Influencer Whitelisting, Creator Marketplace.

9. Klear

Best For: Medium to large brands and agencies, eCommerce businesses

Channels: Instagram, YouTube, TikTok

Pricing: Klear offers three plans, but pricing is customized based on customer size and need.

Klear was initially developed as a tool to find influencers on Twitter (called Twtrland). Its strength was the quality of its data, offering insights into hundreds of millions of accounts on users’ posting habits, popularity, and followers’ demographics. Over time, however, the platform has diversified to cover over 30 million+ influencers across the creator economy. They also offer free influencer analysis tools for Facebook pages and Twitter.

Klear’s AI divides influencers into over 60,000 topic categories and provides deep analytics about their audiences. Although data analysis is its strength, Klear has expanded to include campaign management, tracking, and some essential listening tools to monitor competitors.

The “Monitors” section is actually more helpful for influencer marketing than you might imagine. You can monitor your own social performance, those of your competitors, and your preferred hashtags. You can see how you compare in terms of mentions, engagement, and follower growth. Most importantly, however, the monitors you set teach Klear’s algorithms the kinds of accounts and content relevant to your brand. The team at Klear sets up many of these monitors as part of your onboarding process to jumpstart machine learning.

Amongst the wealth of data Klear presents you is a “True Reach” figure for influencers – what the algorithm determines to be realistic based on years of historical data. It gives each influencer a Klear Influencer Score to identify those users with the highest levels of influence.

Key Features: Search/Discovery, Automated Recruiting, Influencer Relationship Management, Influencer Marketplace, Content Review, Content Library, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, E-commerce Tools, Product/Gifting Tools, Forms and Compliance, Fake Follower/Fraud Detection, Payment Processing, Social Listening, Competitor Research, Visual Discovery.

12. Kolsquare

Channels: Instagram, Facebook, X (Twitter), YouTube, TikTok

Pricing: Tailor-made packages, starting at €500 per month. Offers special NGO and startup rates.

Kolsquare is no stranger to connecting brands with influential names for marketing purposes.

Before Kolsquare rebranded to its current name (which, by the way, stands for key opinion leaders), it connected brands with celebrities. Fast-forward many years and it boasts clients like Coca-Cola, Danone, and Decathlon as well as a huge network of influencers (aka key opinion leaders).

Although Kolsquare has always catered to medium and large businesses, with pricing set at that level, they now offer cheaper plans for start-ups and small businesses. Thanks to its team collaboration features, bigger teams will find it invaluable. You can edit access rules to the campaigns of your team directly via your intuitive interface.

Not only does Kolsquare streamline campaign reporting, but it also offers valuable stats about potential influencers before you kick off any campaigns. For example, it offers a Kolsquare Analytics Sidebar. With this Chrome extension, you’ll be able to find automatically calculated engagement rates, audiences’ socio-demographic data, and credibility scores. This data makes it much easier to gauge if the influencer’s audience matches your own target market.

It’s this ability to identify influencer profiles relevant to a specific brand that was one of the main features that convinced Fizzer to sign up for Kolsquare. On average, they run one influencer campaign per month and have worked with over 100 key opinion leaders since turning to Kolsquare. Other features that some of their other happy clients have highlighted are its ease of use, reporting, and huge database.

13. NeoReach

Best For: Large companies and enterprises

Channels: X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest, Snapchat

Pricing: NeoReach gives customers custom pricing based on the number of users and a few other factors.

NeoReach straddles the world between acting as an influencer marketing agency and providing influencer marketing software for businesses wishing to take charge of their own influencer marketing. Companies can work with NeoReach’s managed service teams to seamlessly launch influencer marketing campaigns at scale. Alternatively, individuals and teams can use their self-service platform to manage their own individual influencer relationships and execute their own user-generated content campaigns.

Wal-Mart, NBC/Universal, FanDuel, and The Travel Channel have all used the platform to forge and manage influencer relationships.

NeoReach’s focus is on data. It maintains a database of over 3 million influencers across major social media platforms.

14. Later Influence

Best For: Large eCommerce brands

Channels: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, Twitch, Pinterest, X (Twitter) & Blogs

Pricing: Mavrck doesn’t publicize its pricing, so you will need to approach them for a quote. Pricing is customized based on customer needs.

The typical influencer marketing platform collates a database of people it believes are influential on social media and/or through blogging. As you have seen in the other profiles, some of the platforms invite influencers to apply to be part of their platform, while others use a completely automated system to find influencers. Usually, when a company uses influencer software to find suitable influencers, they will come to the platform in search of people in their vertical who appear to match their style and have sufficient followers and influence.

Mavrck takes an entirely different approach, however. They have the view that instead of a company searching for suitable influencers to attract customers, they should instead turn their best existing customers into influencers who will extol the brand’s virtues. The main benefit of doing this is that you don’t have to convince an influencer who has never heard of you that you have a product worthy of their promotional efforts.

Mavrck’s approach seems to be working as they have built an impressive client roster, including big-name companies like Gillette, Dunkin’ Donuts, Universal Studios, New Balance, Procter & Gamble, Sears, and JetBlue.

Mavrck clients either set up a white-labeled standalone microsite or use a special plugin for their existing websites. They then encourage their customers to log into the site using a Facebook login. Mavrck grabs relevant data to determine the level of influence of any particular customer. Their algorithm can determine the reach and engagement of a brand’s customers. Based on this data, Mavryck can determine the level of influence a customer enjoys, and whether he/she would be of use for an influencer campaign.

Any customers who are considered sufficiently influential are offered social activities to undertake and can earn rewards for completing them.

So far, Mavrck has identified 10.6 million micro-influencers for its database, with 102.3 million social profiles. In many ways, Mavrck’s influencers are people who don’t know they are influencers. From their point of view, it’s like being in an advanced loyalty program, where they receive rewards for sharing content.

15. Refersion

Best For: Medium to Large Size eCommerce brands

Channels: Not stated on their website

Pricing: Plans from $99/mo if paid annually.

If we are being nitpicky, Refersion isn’t an example of influencer marketing software; it offers affiliate marketing services. However, Refersion also addresses many of the needs of firms wanting to engage in influencer marketing.

Refersion was created in 2015 to help brands that create and manage vast affiliate marketing networks track transactions, enable payouts, and provide streamlined reporting. It means that firms didn’t have to get bogged down in numerous spreadsheets.

The line between affiliates and influencers is becoming increasingly blurred, with many influencers now part of campaigns driving sales. It has not taken much for Refersion to adapt its offering to include influencer marketing software services. These include integrations with some other Influencer Discovery software services. Refersion is exploring more influencer-specific features, like discovery and campaign management, for future updates.

The first stage of setting up Refersion involves integrating your eCommerce platform if you have one. Refersion has apps for all the leading platforms. You then upload the details for all your existing influencers and affiliates.

You can set up offers in the Refersion marketplace, which is much like any influencer marketplace. However, the platform enables you to structure your offers in a logical way for each campaign.

Influencers can sign into an influencer portal to see all the details of your offers, including any specific requirements you have set before you are willing to make payments.

One handy feature that Refersion has is a type of content library containing all the visual assets your influencers use. Brands can make any changes to the content if they want to update and repurpose it. For example, changing an ad on the platform automatically changes it downstream on an influencer’s website.

Key Features: Content Library, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, E-commerce Tools, Product/Gifting Tools, Payment Processing, Affiliate Management, Affiliate Campaigns, Affiliate Marketplace.

Integrations: eCommerce (Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Magenta, Stripe, and Chargebee), influencer discovery software (Upfluence, #paid, and Cohley), 30+ marketing app integrations, access to developer APIs.

17. BrandConnect (formerly Famebit)

Best For: Small to medium-sized businesses wishing to work with YouTube creators

Channels: YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, X (Twitter)

Pricing: Using the YouTube BrandConnect software is free for brands, however brands still need to pay creators, like any other influencer marketplace. YouTube BrandConnect suggests suitable prices when connecting with creators. You set a budget, much as any other YouTube advertising campaign, for using influencer videos as ads.

From the moment you land on the YouTube BrandConnect (formerly Famebit) website, it’s clear they’re going for a younger audience. Or, at least, trying to attract brands going for a younger audience. It doesn’t quite stand out as much as it once did, now having the consistent look of YouTube Advertising, but with a clear, uncluttered look focusing on videos of attractive 20-somethings having loads of fun, YouTube BrandConnect does not look like any other solution listed here. Which is perfect, because they’re doing things a little differently than all the others.

Although the current incarnation of BrandConnect is still based on the original Famebit, it now only covers YouTube. It is currently only in trial with a selection of brands in the United States and India, although YouTube will presumably widen its availability in time.

YouTube BrandConnect is a self-service platform that connects creators with opportunities for branded content campaigns. Brands can use the proprietary influencer dashboard to execute their branded content campaigns and identify creators with whom to work.

Participating influencers receive a customizable Media Kit, with audience insights tailored to their channel, so they can pitch themselves to brands and secure deals.

18. Webfluential

Best For: Small, Medium, and Large brands and agencies

Channels: Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, YouTube, WordPress

Pricing: From $100/mo.

It’s an oft-repeated aphorism that you can’t be all things to all people. At least in the world of influencer marketing, Webfluential is proving that wrong. Yes, the platform offers matchmaking services for brands looking for their ideal influencers, as well as the tools to facilitate creative collaboration and post-campaign analytics. What differentiates Webfluential from its competitors, though, is the amount of thought they’ve put into the influencer side of the equation.

Most of the influencer marketing software services listed here will vet their pool of influencers thoroughly, with the best ones getting through the application process and receiving a listing in their database for their troubles. Webfluential goes several steps further, furnishing influencers with tools to be proactive in finding opportunities instead of sitting back and waiting for a knock on their virtual door. They can use their profile page on the platform to show their rates and a portfolio of past works. Webfluential also offers creatives access to their own analytics and reporting, and to use the stats gleaned from this as part of their profile. Quote-building tools allow them to send detailed proposals to any brand searches, but this isn’t limited to any specific campaigns already in the works.

An influencer with an established presence in any niche might have ideas of her own on the kinds of content she can produce. Even if no brands are looking for something that specifically fits that mold, Webfluential makes it possible to find the right companies to pitch ideas to. Traditional advertising agencies might spend years trying to get their feet in the door of a large company like Samsung or Coca-Cola (both customers of Webfluential), but any 20-something with a good idea and an impressively sized audience can give it their best shot and be assured that the right person will actually see it. Even in the new frontier of influencer marketing, this is a game-changing equalizer that puts creatives in the driver’s seat.

19. SocialBook

Best For: Medium and Large Brands

Channels: Instagram, YouTube, Twitch

Pricing: From $499/mo.

SocialBook can provide you with a ton of data about the major social channels that influencers use. It is very data-focused, particularly once you get down to the individual profile level. If you sort your results by Relevance, you’ll get some good results to analyze closer.

There is a considerable amount of data in the influencers’ profiles, both at the account level and on individual posts. This is especially good news with YouTube accounts, as it can be challenging to find detailed analytics for this platform. SocialBook uses a hybrid of encouraging influencers to register for their platform to gain access to more detailed data, combined with AI and predictive analysis, making informed guesses about those influencers who haven’t registered.

Although you might appear doubtful about using informed guesses, evidence shows that the predicted results are very accurate.

As you search through influencers, you can create and organize them into lists, and create Compare Lists to pit up to five of them against one another.

SocialBook has one particular advantage over the competition. It provides the mechanism for you to send direct messages to the Instagram accounts of those influencers who interest you. You can also do email outreach to many of the influencers too. You can send customized mass emails out to up to 500 of them at a time, and then send follow-up emails as part of a Drip Campaign. You can also use Coins (a SocialBook virtual currency) to donate to influencers, in the hope of attracting their attention.

Key Features: Search/Discovery, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, Payment Processing.

Integrations: SocialBook Checker for Chrome Plugin, API access (on Enterprise plan only).

20. Current

Best For: Businesses of all sizes

Channels: Not stated on their website

Pricing: Not stated on their website.

Current describes itself as a complete ambassador platform, engineered for growth. However, it has recently taken more of a look at influencer marketing and in 2021 purchased the influencer marketing platform, Peg. They now offer a product suite with professional-level software to drive profitable influencer and ambassador programs.

Current’s Ambassador Hub is at the heart of their offering. Ambassador Hub empowers you to recruit confidently, optimize your bottom line, and maximize your return. You can use it to create an authentic community that generates meaningful revenue for your brand. You can tap into your existing customers or explore Current’s database of over 5 million vetted ambassadors to grow your program.

You can build your ambassador program, run influencer marketing campaigns, and drive trackable sales using Current’s software. However, they also have a Payment Platform and extensive Messaging capabilities. You can use their Payments Platform to authorize payments, customize payouts, collect tax documents, and automatically distribute 1099’s to talent. Creators have the flexibility to receive payment via ACH or PayPal.

Current allows you to reach out to potential partners, communicate directly with your ambassadors and influencers, or chat with your entire community. Reach out to individuals on a one-to-one basis and empower your ambassadors to message your team with any questions. Alternatively, you can build your community and drive better engagement with a group chat that everyone can participate in.

Current provides comprehensive reporting to measure and optimize your success.

Key Features: Search/Discovery, Influencer Relationship Management, Team Collaboration Tools, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, Payment Processing, Ambassador Management.

Integrations: A custom API.

21. Humanz

Best For: Medium and Large brands; Agencies

Pricing: No monthly fees or subscriptions, and no specific term. You pay on a per-campaign basis, with Humanz taking their fees as a percentage of your budget – the higher the budget, the lower the rate. Contact Humanz for a quote.

Humanz is still relatively new (the company was founded in 2019), but already it has made waves. It’s not often that we give five stars, but, in this case, the software that they’ve created truly deserves it. In fact, they’ve raised the bar. Not only does it offer loads of features, but its interface is also easy to use.

One of its noteworthy features is a marketplace where brands can find influencers (there are already 50,000+ influencers registered on its platform). While you’re still free to work with any influencer, it just makes it easier if the influencers register on their platform so that you can centralize and streamline tasks such as scheduling, communication, and content approval.

Considering that Humanz has put in a lot of effort to ensure that the platform appeals to influencers, you probably won’t have a hard time convincing influencers to register. For example, it offers a mobile app for influencers where they can view all their data (the same info that marketers see).

For marketers, it offers just as much functionality and ease of use. The dynamic interface delivers well-researched results quickly, while its well-thought-out features offer all the standard information, but in context.

Another feature that deserves special praise is its campaigns. While it’s an in-depth process to create campaigns, it leaves no room for confusion, ultimately ensuring that you and your influencers are (and remain) on the same page.

Key Features: Influencer Marketplace, Search/Discovery, Automated Recruiting, Influencer Lifecycle Management, Influencer Relationship Management, Team Collaboration Tools, Content Review, Content Library, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, E-commerce Tools, Product/Gifting Tools, Fake Follower/Fraud Detection, Payment Processing, Competitor Research, Exportable reports.

22. Tagger Media

Best For: Large businesses and enterprises

Channels: Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), YouTube, TikTok

Pricing: On request. If you use Tagger via Sprout Social, it is a separate add-on to their existing plans.

Tagger began life as a music recommendation engine. However, before long, it pivoted to influencer marketing, utilizing the best parts of the existing software.

Tagger tracks more than 9 billion social conversations, relating to over 3.5 million influencer profiles, resulting in an incomprehensible amount of data. You could consider Tagger a full-fledged digital marketing research tool.

It has all the features of an influencer marketplace, along with much more. The platform’s focus on psychographics is what sets it apart. It’s built on a social listening feature that analyzes what people are talking about to understand their interests and affinities. Brands and agencies can get a very precise look into the kinds of content that will drive engagement with these audiences. It includes competitor research, where a wealth of information not only gives you insight into what’s been working for them but also serves as inspiration for your own campaign.

All past content is indexed, with sponsored content going back to 2013. You can sort, filter, and refine the results in any number of ways. Searches for influencers offer dozens of filters to refine results. Tagger’s data analysis engines give it the ability to “understand” an influencer’s followers enough that it can go and find “lookalike” audiences.

Tagger includes a robust reporting function. You can dive deep into your campaign posts to see how it all went.

Tagger was recently purchased by Sprout Social and is currently being integrated into their software.

Key Features: Search/Discovery, Automated Recruiting, Influencer Marketplace, Team Collaboration Tools, Content Library, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, Fake Follower/Fraud Detection, Payment Processing, Social Listening, Competitor Research.

Integrations: Not stated on their website. If you use Tagger alongside Sprout Social (Professional Plan or higher) you will have various helpdesk, CRM, and Social Commerce integrations, including Zendesk, HubSpot, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Marketo, Facebook Shops, Shopify, or WooCommerce.

23. Traackr

Best For: Midsize, enterprise and agencies

Channels: Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest, Tumblr, Blogs

Pricing: Traackr’s pricing is highly individualized, based on the customer and its needs. It doesn’t have set “plans” at a preset monthly price.

No IM platform would be complete without a deep analytics engine and a vast network of influencers. Traackr does not disappoint on either of those fronts, even if they don’t put that front and center in their marketing materials.

Instead, Traackr’s platform focuses on what they call Influencer Relationship Management, one of the few companies that acknowledges influencer marketing’s selling point: trust. With other software, finding influencers to represent a brand is a strict monetary transaction. A brand is paired with people who are authorities in a given space, and then it’s up to either an algorithm or one-on-one negotiation to set fees for sponsored posts. And there’s nothing wrong with that for short-term campaigns designed to raise awareness of a single project or sell a product.

Traackr can do all of these things, but its primary focus is on the brands it works with earning “lasting influence.” The platform allows for social listening of its influencers, allowing brands to engage with them and their audiences in meaningful ways that foster familiarity and build trust. This focus, along with scores of data that can be used to visualize your influence network, can open up doors to still more influencers, upstream and down. You won’t just connect with audiences, but also the people who influence your influencers, opening up entirely new connections and networks you might otherwise have missed.

Companies like HP, Forbes, EMC, Intel, and Travelocity have all successfully expanded their reach using Traackr.

Key Features: Search/Discovery, Influencer Relationship Management, Team Collaboration Tools, Campaign Management, Campaign Reporting, Influencer Analysis, Audience Analysis, Product/Gifting Tools, Forms and Compliance, Fake Follower/Fraud Detection, Competitor Research.

Integrations: Traackr integrates with a variety of eCommerce (including Shopify), email, and payment software. You can also integrate Traackr within your organization’s login process with their single sign-on solution (SSO). You can integrate all your influencer programs’ data together in one place to uncover new insights by leveraging Traackr’s data lake.

24. Aspire (formerly AspireIQ)

Best For: Large businesses and agencies

Channels: Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, X (Twitter), Pinterest, Blogs

Pricing: Pricing is customized, although Aspire offers three levels of service (Basic, Pro, and Enterprise).

The Aspire platform takes a more hands-off approach than previous entries on this list. The company describes it as a self-service platform that offers access to over 150,000 influencers across major social media platforms. This makes it a good fit for agencies, or brands that create their own marketing campaigns in-house. However, if you prefer a more hands-on approach, Aspire also offers agency services, and their in-house team can professionally manage influencer programs of any size.

Using a sophisticated machine-learning engine, Aspire constantly adds information about its influencers based on their social media output. It gathers information on posts, content quality, engagement, and even the sentiment behind the comments—all of which drive the software’s matching algorithm. When agencies or brands look for influencers to suit their needs, all this information is parsed as the software matches them up. Once matched, the Aspire interface makes it easy to pitch ideas to hundreds of influencers at once and manage responses from a single dashboard.

Keeping with the all-in-one goal of the platform, Aspire also has a solid focus on the actual creation of content. Called the Creator Collaboration Toolkit, the platform streamlines the process of working with influencers. Roles and tasks can be assigned, while built-in tools assist with the creation and management of each piece of content. You can then track each campaign’s progress, monitoring its reach and the ensuing engagement with audiences.

25. CreatorIQ

Best For: Large Brands, Agencies

Channels: Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), YouTube, Pinterest, Twitch, Blogs

Pricing: CreatorIQ doesn’t publicize its pricing, so you will need to approach them for a quote.

CreatorIQ is genuinely end-to-end, with an interface that’s polished and efficient. It has an exhaustive feature set, including everything you would expect of an influencer marketing platform. It was named as Best Influencer Marketing platform at the 2019 MarTech Awards.

CreatorIQ can boast a list of clients that includes Disney, Tiffany & Co., Unilever, Dell, and Ralph Lauren.

CreatorIQ integrates directly with social platform APIs, however, once you select your preferred influencers, it can access much more data than is available publicly. It offers a white-labeled, fully customizable portal where invited influencers can register with you and go through an onboarding process. During this process, the influencers agree to allow CreatorIQ to access detailed information about their social posting, making CreatorIQ’s profiles very detailed indeed.

As you build out your network, you effectively create your own private marketplace. Influencers don’t log on to CreatorIQ to find opportunities; they log onto your portal to see what your brand has going on.

You can use your portal to create campaign briefs, broadcast them, move ahead with your campaigns, approve or deny content, and issue payments. It looks, feels, and acts like a private influencer marketplace. The portal is also the chief mechanism for seeing campaign reports. These reports are dynamic, so you can filter and sort the information any way you’d like. Reports are composed of widgets, so you can customize them to show what you desire.

26. impact.com

Best For: Small, medium, and large businesses and agencies

Channels: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Facebook

Pricing: impact.com doesn’t publicize its pricing, so you will need to approach them for a quote.

Impact.com offers far more than just influencer marketing software. Indeed, they describe themselves as a partnership management platform, offering services to help brands organize their partnerships for influencers, retail, brand-to-brand, affiliate, commerce content, ambassadors, creators, Fintech, SaaS, and travel.

Aimed at brands of all sizes as well as agencies, impact.com is a truly powerful end-to-end influencer marketing software. Not only is it packed with features, but its user interface is also similar to how marketplaces operate.

It offers many storefront integrations, making it a great choice for eCommerce. These integrations make it easier to share products and promo codes with influencers. If you’re interested in going this route, impact.com will handle attribution, reporting, and payouts.

Alternatively, if you want to focus more on creating influencer-generated content (IGC) than generating sales, you’ll appreciate features like the media vault, its massive global opt-in network with qualified creators, and step-by-step workflows. After creators have shared their content live, impact.com will automatically gather all social metrics. This means that you don’t have to search for stats. Combine this data with its machine learning-based fraud scoring and you can feel reassured knowing that you have quality assurance measures that you can rely on.
