Kolsquare vs Lefty: which influencer marketing platform is right for you?

Working with nano creators means you don’t always have structured data available, so Kolsquare was really useful to centralise profiles, analyse their audience and engagement data, and validate our choices.

When you're working with a brand like Neutrogena, the stakes are high. You need to be able to show the client exactly why you've chosen each profile and what the data says about their audience. Kolsquare gives us that confidence.

We obviously rely on Kolsquare's KPIs, especially the credibility score. It's a non-negotiable for us. Having that quality guarantee matters. It's one of the first things we look at.

Kolsquare gives me access to the data I need to make smarter calls on creator selection. I can see who's already active in our space, how often they post, which brands they work with. It takes a lot of the guesswork out of discovery.

The Kolsquare widget in Chrome is awesome. You go into the profile’s Instagram grid and the data appears on the right side. It’s a quick look, but for us it’s essential. If it says 35% following in Brazil, we can straight away say no.
