## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-24 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's how I'd actually rank these for an agency, which is a different question than "best platform" generally - agencies need multi-client separation, white-label reporting, and pricing that doesn't charge per seat or per creator.
> 
> **1. CreatorIQ** - The default pick if you're a mid-to-large agency with enterprise clients. It's built for complex org structures: approval chains that run internal review before client sign-off, multi-market program management, centralized governance, fraud detection, and genuinely deep audience reporting. It's also the one most likely to already be in your client's stack, which matters when they want to own the data. Downside: enterprise pricing and a real onboarding lift - overkill if you're running five clients.
> 
> **2. Influencity** - My recommendation for small-to-mid agencies, and the best value on this list. Multi-client campaign management with white-label reporting, ~170M creator index, and no per-influencer fees - that last part is the big one, because per-creator pricing punishes exactly the workflow an agency has (vetting 200 people to hire 12).
> 
> **3. Sprout Social Influencer Marketing (formerly Tagger)** - Worth it specifically if you alrea
