Kitly
A media kit that updates itself
Kitly connects your accounts and builds the media kit from live numbers, so the deck you send a brand is not three months out of date. Campaign deliverables and reporting sit alongside it, which is the half of a brand deal that happens after the money is agreed. Creators are also listed in a network brands search. Both plans are billed by the year and the monthly equivalent is what the page quotes.
Our note
Two linked accounts on Starter is the limit worth checking against how you actually work, because a creator on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube is already past it. At under $200 a year Premium is cheap against a single brand deal, and the argument for it is the live numbers rather than the network listing.

Trend
UGC videos priced per video, not per seat
Trend sells creator content in credit packages and charges nothing for the software around it, which suits a brand that needs a batch of videos twice a year rather than a running programme. Per-video cost falls as the package grows. The smallest package is $550, so it is not a way to test the idea cheaply.
