HypeAuditor tells you who’s real. Acurrate tells you who’s profitable.

Not to HypeAuditor’s depth — audience forensics is genuinely their strength, and a per-creator fake-follower percentage is something we don’t publish. What Acurrate does carry on every profile is engagement authenticity — flagging engagement that doesn’t fit a creator’s size and niche benchmarks — plus a ranking by Real Reach (median views of recent posts), a metric bought followers can’t inflate: bots pad the follower count, not sustained real views. Their audit goes deeper on whether the audience is real; ours goes further on what that audience is worth to your store.

Open any creator in Acurrate and you get engagement vs niche benchmarks, Real Reach, brand-fit and pricing context — plus the piece a report can’t give you, the profit forecast against your own store economics. Audience demographics and geography are shown where we’ve actually measured them and marked as unmeasured where we haven’t, rather than estimated onto every profile. And because the plan is unlimited, you check as many creators as you want without per-report charges.

Really. Self-serve signup, 14-day free trial, no credit card, $99/month after — published, flat, everything included. The only other line item is $29/month per team seat beyond the 2 included — published right here, not buried behind a quote. If you want a walkthrough we’re happy to give one, but it’s never a gate to seeing the product or the price.

Honestly, no — polished exportable audit reports for third parties are HypeAuditor’s territory. Acurrate is the brand-side operating tool: it’s built for the team choosing and running creators for their own store, not for selling reports onward. If your business is producing audits for clients, HypeAuditor fits that better.

Keep trusting it — the switch isn’t about their data being wrong. It’s that an audience report is one input to a money decision the report never makes. Acurrate closes the loop: real reach, real store economics, a profit number per creator before you commit, and the workflow to run the deal after. Most teams that switch were paying $299–499+ a month for diligence and still making the actual money decision in a spreadsheet.

Yes. Shopify connects in one click and imports your AOV, conversion rate and returning-customer rate automatically, but every number can be entered manually — the forecasts and the rest of the platform work the same either way.
