What does Influencity cost?
Influencity publishes pricing, but blocked our automated check — the figures below are third-party reported. Influencity's own pricing page renders client-side and blocked our automated read. Socialrails reports four tiers metered by monthly analyses and search results: Basic $168–198/mo, Professional $348–398/mo, Business $698–998/mo, Enterprise custom. Flinque separately reports an entry point nearer $318/mo — treat the exact figure as directional until confirmed against the live page.
Professional — reported $348–398/mo, unlimited analyses, up to 600 influencers per campaign
Business — reported $698–998/mo, 25,000 monthly search results, 500 analyses, priority support
Enterprise — custom, unlimited usage, SSO, API access
Take the lowest figure anyone reports — $168/mo — and a year still comes to $2,016, against $264 for Sway9 Starter. The true number is likely higher, and only a sales call would tell you what yours is.

What stands out about Influencity
Why do teams look for an Influencity alternative?
Influencity is a creator discovery and audience-analytics platform with usage-metered search and analysis limits, aimed at brands and agencies vetting influencers before outreach. Every new creator is a step closer to the next tier. What sends teams looking:
You have stopped needing to discover new creators and just need your existing roster tracked
You want a flat bill instead of one that climbs with search volume
You want continuous view tracking, which Influencity does not do at all
5 alternatives to Influencity
1
Sway9
Track your own roster, pay per view
Free plan, then $22/mo
Where Influencity caps how many creators each tier lets you track, Sway9 charges on how many creator accounts you track and nothing else. It picks up every TikTok and Instagram post from creators you already work with, refreshes them automatically, and computes spend and effective CPM as the views arrive — the reconciliation Influencity leaves you to do by hand.
It runs on a negotiated quote rather than per-tier creator caps, though you will need a sales call to get a number, which Influencity no longer requires.

Where Influencity is still the better choice
Tiering by roster size is honest about what drives cost, and Influencity is the stronger pick when the job is one of these:
A discovery database reported at 200M+ profiles across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Twitch
Audience-demographic analysis bundled into every tier
Month-to-month billing available with no forced annual commitment
API access and SSO at the Enterprise tier for teams building it into other tools
If that is the software you are actually shopping for, Influencity is the better buy and nothing on this page should talk you out of it.
