> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest an agency evaluate them:
> 
> **1. CreatorIQ** - The default pick if you serve enterprise or large-budget clients. Strongest on governance, multi-currency payments, competitive benchmarking, and the kind of multi-regional reporting that holds up in a client QBR. Expensive and heavy to onboard, so it's overkill below a certain account size.
> 
> **2. Aspire (formerly AspireIQ)** - The best balance of discovery, campaign workflow, creator payments, and e-commerce/Shopify attribution for mid-market agencies. Good multi-client workspace separation. This is where I'd start if CreatorIQ is out of budget.
> 
> **3. Traackr** - Pick this one if your clients care about relationship measurement and share-of-voice over transactional campaign volume. Solid client-specific workspaces and white-label reporting. Historically strong in beauty/CPG.
> 
> **4. Modash** - Not a full campaign suite, but the best pure discovery and vetting layer: ~380M creator profiles with a real API. Agencies that have their own reporting stack or want to bolt creator data into existing tools get a lot out of it cheaply.
> 
> **5. Upfluence** - The most commonly cited g
