Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd shortlist them for an agency.\n\n## The main contenders\n\n**1. CreatorIQ** - The default if you're an agency of any real size. It's the only one with genuinely good multi-client architecture: separate workspaces per brand, role-based permissions, and an actual agency licensing tier (it's what most holdco agencies - Publicis, Dentsu, Omnicom shops - run on). Deepest API integrations and the most defensible measurement. Downside: enterprise pricing and annual contracts, realistically five figures a year minimum.\n\n**2. Aspire** (formerly AspireIQ) - Best mid-market pick and probably the best value-per-dollar for agencies running 5-20 client programs. Strong creator marketplace with inbound applications (saves enormous outreach time), good campaign briefs/contracts/payments workflow, excellent Shopify and ecommerce integration. Agency plan exists and is negotiable.\n\n**3. Upfluence** - Pick this if your clients are DTC/ecommerce. Its differentiator is matching a client's own customer list against so", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
