Comparison · All-in-one platforms
Kolsquare combines discovery, campaign management, reporting and social listening in one platform. The software still needs a team to run it. See when the platform fits and when an agency running the channel adds more.
Kolsquare is a European all-in-one platform for brands, agencies, corporations and NGOs, covering Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, among others. As of October 2026.
Millions of creator profiles, filterable by niche, demographics and credibility, among others.
Briefs, approvals, communication and payments in one place.
AI-powered reports with live dashboards.
Competitors and trends in view; Storyclash is now part of Kolsquare too.
Kolsquare brings the work into one place. Someone still has to do it. Before buying a licence, take an honest look at three requirements.
The platform suggests creators and organises briefs, approvals and payments. Your team decides whom to book, at what price and with which brief.
What should a placement cost, and what CAC is realistic? Without benchmarks, a new team learns the lessons we've learned over seven years using its own budget.
Individual campaigns don't create a learning curve. New-customer costs improve when each booking is analysed and informs the next selection.
A platform of this size only pays off with a team that uses it every day. On top of the licence come the salaries and onboarding of the people who select, negotiate, brief and analyse.

Details according to the provider's website, as of October 2026. The three to six months for an in-house build-up reflect our experience. Whether it pays off for you is something we clarify upfront in the potential analysis.
300+ stores successfully scaled
by turning creators into a reliable acquisition channel
Kolsquare organises creator collaboration and collects post results. IDA focuses on which creators bring you new customers and at what cost.
Views per post
Sorted by reach: whoever was seen most comes first.
Cost per new customer by creator
The same creators, sorted by cost per new customer. The creator with the most reach brings the most expensive new customers here.
The biggest difference is who acts on the data:
IDA brings your data together, updated daily. Every booking recommendation we make is backed by evidence—giving you a solid foundation for profitable, scalable influencer marketing.
See every booked campaign: creator, status, audience, vertical, launch date, expected views and cost. Once it goes live, conversions, CAC and ROAS appear in the same row.
If that team still needs to be built, the entire build-up comes on top of the licence.
It manages many creators in parallel and needs shared infrastructure.
Kolsquare is available in German, English, French, Spanish and Italian, among others.
That is exactly what the social listening module is for.
Agencies use platforms like this too.
From creator proposals and tracking to analysis: see how IDA works day to day.
Yes. Your team can continue using Kolsquare for its own research and analysis. You don't need a separate licence for campaigns we run: we handle scouting, negotiation, briefing, booking and reporting, with measurement in IDA.
There is no universal figure; we assess every case individually. A typical starting point is €5,000–€10,000 in monthly creator spend plus our retainer. We assess the potential before any budget goes to creators.
After four weeks, you receive the potential analysis: response rates, suitable verticals and a budget recommendation. The testing roadmap typically identifies the first top performers within three months. From month four, we scale what works.
With IDA, our own analytics software. It combines codes, UTM links, store data and platform reports, breaking each placement down into CAC, ROI and CLV at creator level. That tells us who deserves more budget.
