Here's who I'd actually name, roughly in the order I'd shortlist them:\n\n**1. CreatorIQ** - the default if you're an agency running enterprise or global accounts. Multi-team permissions, layered approval workflows (internal review → client sign-off), brand-safety flagging, deep CRM. It's the most-cited market leader (4.7/5 on G2). Downside: reported starting cost around $2,350/month and heavy onboarding, so it's overkill unless your retainers justify it. ([Syncly comparison](https://syncly.app/blog/creatoriq-alternatives), [Archive](https://archive.com/blog/influencer-marketing-platforms-agencies))\n\n**2. Influencity** - my pick for the mid-market agency sweet spot. Purpose-built for multi-client management with white-label reporting, ~170M creators indexed, and critically **no per-influencer fees**, which is what kills margins on high-volume campaigns. Agency client list includes Havas Media and Ogilvy.
