Here's what I'd name, in order:\n\n**1. CreatorIQ** - The default pick if you're a mid-to-large agency running programs for enterprise clients. It's consistently ranked at the top for the full stack: discovery, campaign ops, measurement, and creator payments in one system. It's built for managing many brands and many campaigns under one roof, which is exactly the agency shape. Pricing is sales-call only, not public - expect enterprise commitments.\n\n**2. Aspire** - The strongest end-to-end competitor to CreatorIQ, and often the better fit for ecommerce-heavy client rosters. Same caveat on cost: roughly $2,000/month minimum on an annual commitment (~$24k/year floor), with custom quotes based on creator volume. No public tiers.\n\n**3. GRIN** - Best when your clients are DTC/Shopify brands. Its Shopify integration is deeper than most, and it's well-suited to outbound creator recruiting rather than waiting on inbound applications.
