Collabstr alternative
Collabstr is a marketplace: you hire the creators who listed themselves there and pay a fee on every deal. Trovaso finds creators anywhere on TikTok and Instagram, in any country, and takes nothing from what you pay them.
Your first list of vetted creators is free. No credit card.
The short version
Collabstr is an influencer and UGC marketplace: creators list priced packages, brands buy them or post a brief, and payment sits in escrow until the content is approved. Brands pay a 10% (or 5%) fee per hire and creators pay 15%.

FAQ
It depends on how much you spend on creators. Collabstr is free to browse but takes 10% of every hire (5% on Premium), and the plans with campaigns and tracking are $299 to $399 a month. Trovaso is $59, $129 or $299 a month and takes no fee on what you pay creators.
Yes, that's how Trovaso works: it searches TikTok and Instagram for your brief and the AI vets every profile it finds, so the creators don't need to have signed up anywhere.
You pay them directly, the way you agreed. Trovaso keeps track of what each creator is owed, what's paid and what's due, and spots payment details in their messages so they're ready to copy.
Trovaso finds creators who post on TikTok and Instagram, including UGC creators, and its contracts cover reposting and paid-ads use of their videos.
