"One of our clients is using Grin, which they've onboarded us onto, but we have internal concerns and strongly prefer sticking with MightyScout… for us, it is the best platform."

If you're reading this...
You've probably run into some frustrations with Grin.

Maybe you're evaluating Grin or already using it, but something isn't quite working. Your reports are missing content, the interface feels overwhelming, you're lacking any support when you need it most, or the price tag is hard to justify.

The bottom line? You know there has to be a better way to work with creators. And you're right.

"We've had lots of problems with our current platform, Grin. I've disliked it since I started. With organic and earned conversations happening everywhere, tracking every single profile can be overwhelming, but I've found MightyScout to be a game-changer."

"Before MightyScout, we had to spend 1-2 days every week gathering information about Stories between 1-2 people. Now, we can gather the information for reports in 2 minutes: the time it takes to download and send MightyScout's report to my clients. I think we would have had to hire 5 or 6 people to do what MightyScout is doing."

"MightyScout has allowed us to really automate the tracking part of campaigns. Before this, Excel spreadsheets and manual work was very time consuming. It's gotta be saving us something like 40 hours a month. That's a lot of man hours, if you add up all those costs from an employee point of view, that's a lot of money, so MightyScout is very cost-efficient."

Best in class for tracking & reporting

We don't do it all – and that's a good thing

MightyScout is really good at discovering, tracking, managing, and reporting for creator campaigns. If you need more features, the good news is you can always add and remove other creator marketing tools as you see fit. Some of our most successful customers even use MightyScout in addition to all-in-ones.


That means you can build the perfect creator management system for your business, without paying for expensive features you won't ever use.


Whatever you choose,

please don’t keep doing this all manually

You have better things to do on Sunday than checking Instagram stories for work. Plus, manually tracking and reporting still costs your company upwards of $18,000 a year (15 hours per week multiplied by an average marketer rate of $25/hr).

There’s a better way, we promise. Automated tracking and pain-free reporting gives you time back so you can bring real value to your company. If you’re managing 15+ influencers, MightyScout is about to save you tons of people-hours (and money). Give it a try.
