DealVibe vs an influencer agency
An agency usually sits between brands and a roster of creators, sourcing and packaging deals. DealVibe is a tool a creator runs from their own link. Which fits depends on whether you want deals brought to you or a faster way to handle the ones already arriving.
| The alternative | DealVibe | |
|---|---|---|
| Where deals come from | Often sourced by the agency from its brand relationships. | Brands who reach your link and send an inquiry. |
| Who negotiates | Agency staff. | An AI negotiator within your floors. It is an AI, and says so when asked. |
| What it costs | Set by the agency's agreement, sometimes a share of the deal or of the brand's fee. Ask. | Free: 10% of a deal only if it closes, capped at $1,500 (1 negotiated deal a month). Pro: $49/month or $490/year, 0% fee. As of 2026-09-28. |
| Your say | Set by your agreement. | By default it replies within your floors; approval mode holds every reply for your OK. You always approve content before it goes to the brand. |
| Roster or exclusivity | Some agencies ask for it. Read the terms. | None. |
The alternative fits if…
You want an agency to find and bring you brand work, and you are comfortable with its terms.
DealVibe fits if…
You already get, or want to get, brand inquiries through your bio and want them answered and negotiated within your own floors.
Questions worth asking anyone
- Do you find the deals, or do I?
- What is your cut and how is it calculated?
- Am I exclusive to you?
- Can I decline a deal?
