Influencity alternative: same job, modern tool

At Story Story, we chose to build a modern, simple and effective product. It works on mobile and desktop, because we know social media managers spend as much time on their phones as on their computers.

In a nutshell, here's what Story Story does:

• Influencer search, live, on any public profile.
• Profile selection: shortlist, vetting, export, outreach.
• Campaign tracking: seeding, events, big or small influencer campaigns.
• Monitoring of your competitors, clients, prospects and talent.

Let's walk you through it.

At Influencity, the entry plan (Discover) starts at $158/month, billed yearly. And it doesn't even include content tracking: for that, you need the Professional plan, at $318/month. All in all, Influencity costs about three times as much as Story Story.

With us:

• Story Story starts at €49/month with the Starter plan.
• If you're serious, the Pro plan at €99/month should be more than enough.
• For bigger needs, we have dedicated plans to support you as you grow.

Pay monthly and cancel whenever you want. Or pay yearly and get two months free.

Influencity has you search inside its database. The problem is that a database ages: accounts disappear, others blow up, and small profiles often never made it in to begin with.

At Story Story, we went the other way: no database, just live profile search.

Meaning what?
You can look up any profile, from the one with 100 followers in Colombia to the one with 3M followers in the US. The data is up to date the moment you look. Metrics, score, media, audience demographics (age, gender, country): it's all on one super visual screen.

Everyone ends up in Instagram's "Suggested for you" section, because the suggestions are spot on. So we automated it.
→ In one click, you get every suggestion linked to a profile, which you can then filter, vet or remove.

Chain a few similarity searches and you'll see the profiles that keep coming up again and again. That's the network effect: a dozen creators who share roughly the same community, and your target feels like everyone is talking about you.

Nano, micro or macro: for finding influencers, Story Story is ridiculously effective. And no re-re-clicking.

Once your searches are done, you shortlist the profiles you like, then export the data to reach out to them.

Creator emails are available: you can contact them easily, without getting stuck.

At Influencity, to track posts you have to create a tracking, select the profiles, then set content rules (hashtags, mentions, keywords). At Story Story, you add a public account and that's it: stories, posts and reels on Instagram, stories and reels on TikTok are saved automatically.

We're the only platform that tracks TikTok stories. And it's a format that's taking off fast.

For reporting, you get the metrics that matter in the industry:

• EMV (earned media value)
• engagement
• tracking of requested posts
• ROI

You export your reports in whatever format suits you: Excel, PowerPoint or PDF.

Since you can track any public profile, Story Story isn't just for campaigns. Keep an eye on your competitors, clients, prospects or future talent. You know what's going on without spending 3 hours a day on Instagram.

Some of our customers work in media: they use it to watch the accounts most likely to break a story. Others use it to follow their talent or spot future collaborations.

If 2010 interfaces and endless clicking don't scare you, Influencity will get the job done. But if you want to find up-to-date profiles, track your campaigns and keep an eye on the competition with a tool you can pick up in five minutes, on desktop or mobile, give Story Story a try.
