UGC videos from creators, briefed and paid for
Influee is a marketplace for commissioned user-generated video: post a brief, pick from applicants, ship the product, get files back. The subscription caps how many collaborations run at once rather than how much footage arrives. Creator fees are separate from the plan, and the marketplace takes a percentage of them on the way through.
Gifted collaborations with small creators
Social Cat matches small brands with creators who will work for product rather than a fee, and handles the invitations, the contracts and the content rights in between. The creators are the size a new brand can actually book. Paid collaborations are supported too, but the gifted side is what the platform is shaped around.
Our note
Social Cat is the cheapest way to run gifted collaborations properly, with the rights and the contract already sorted. Collabstr is the better fit when you want to pay creators outright rather than send product.
