You don't recommend enough influencers in the United States when I hit the button for you to generate a list for me, being that I'm located in the United States and you don't respond to emails or questions on Instagram at all. Communication is key in business relationships. And I selected "over a week" because "never" wasn't an option.

There’s an issue with my account and I have reached out to support multiple times and have not received any response back. It is affecting my brand collaborations and success on the platform and I am very unhappy.

It is really difficult to communicate and negotiate with brands using Social Cat. I also haven't been able to find a "help" button to get assistance from the site or a way to change what brands and what types of campaigns contact me.

I apply to gigs everyday and do not hear back from any brand. Social Cat went from being a great way make make an income to not working one bit. I suggest you remove all of the unserious brands that are on there. Also, some brands make $20-$50. Is that forreal??? Come on now. I provide high quality and professional videos and there are brands on here that pay $20-$50. That’s an absolute NO for me.

Out of the two products I sent out, one influencer completed and posted a review. That one review showed for about a day at most. No impact on sales.

Here’s a short, professional version that still makes the point clearly: Review Draft Social Cat is an easy platform for creators to discover brand collaborations, and the interface is straightforward to use. However, the standard creator contract is concerning. The clause granting brands rights to both the edited deliverable and all raw footage is overly broad and does not reflect common industry practice. Raw footage is typically a separate, paid deliverable. For a platform that positions itself as creator-forward, I would strongly encourage Social Cat to revisit these terms and create a more balanced agreement that better respects creators’ work and licensing rights.

The platform is easy to use, but the quality of creator deliverables was inconsistent. Two of the three videos did not meet basic brand promotion standards (missing business name, links, or clear presentation). One creator delivered usable content, but overall the results did not justify the investment. Stronger quality control and clearer expectations for creators would improve the experience.

I have cancelled membership. The quality of influencers is primarily trashy.

The platform dos help in connecting. There two problems: one some profiles we approached, when we didn’t hear from them at all and pointed out that we have sent them an email through the social cats - were unaware of what is socialcats and why they have been approached. Second: most of the ones we managed to - had their social accounts bumped up through fake following. As a result, we didn’t get even the bare minimum traction from their accounts.

please do you vet your creators? I sent products to 17 creators, only a few of them actually did the work, most of are unprofessional, i have sent 4products to 17 people making 68products. As it is, about only 7-8of them are accounted for. some creators don't respond, don't follow contract rules , they just do want they want after receive the products. For me this process is frustrating to me at the moment. Most these ladies just took my product plus shipment and no results. I have not had a single order through these creators and i have to pay them anf social cat.This is a lost for me.

I was able to work with a few really good creators. I do feel like there was a lack of opportunities to work with creators in my niche. The monthly fee was also expensive for limited access to creators. Some creators use this app as it means to get free items which hurts us small business owners.

The fact that we paying $200 a month for subscription and there is 0 protection from fraudulent and unreliable creators is quite disturbing.

Hey Yovi, If you recall, we've added a discount for your next subscription as well as two free matches to make up for the one you lost. We also removed the creator, as we do with any that are brought to our attention for violating contracts. Whilst we can't be responsible for every creators' behaviour on the platform- we do take pride in having discussions like we had with you to come to resolutions- which you accepted at the time. If you're still not happy, feel free to email us to discuss, we're here to help!

As further using the platform I found that the influencers don’t respond after receiving products and etc. social kat doesn’t have any form of protection for the brands. So if an influencer received their product and doesn’t follow through social kat won’t reimburse you for products or time waisted. This is my last time using the platform.

Thank you for your review, Ayanna. I'm sorry to hear that your experience on the platform didn't meet your expectations. We understand how frustrating it is when influencers do not follow through. While we strive to connect brands with responsible creators, we acknowledge that issues can arise. We do remove any creators who do not post content as soon as they are reported to us. As we are a platform, rather than a management agency, we do not have oversight over each step of the process so you will need to email us to report this. It's important to set expectations accordingly and decide whether you need a more full service option. Unfortunately that just simply isn't possible at our price point. Having said that - we do not accept this behaviour and will always remove creators and replace matches for you in these cases (as long as you can let us know when this occurs) If you’d like to discuss this further, please reach out to us directly on hello@thesocialcat.com We're here to help!

Unfortunately, this campaign turned out to be a waste of both time and money. Out of the three creators we engaged: • One still has not delivered any content, even after receiving the product. • The second went significantly off-script, resulting in material that is not usable for the brand. • The third creator, while providing quality content, has not generated any sales. Additionally, there is no effective mechanism to hold these creators accountable to the original agreement. Moving forward, we’ll need to rethink how we structure and enforce our creator partnerships.

The trial period was too short, and I found the platform confusing—especially if you need support. I appreciated the contract feature, but many influencers didn’t match how they presented themselves on their pages. I had plans to run additional campaigns using the subscription, but couldn’t figure out how, even after reaching out to support. Ultimately, I’ve decided to cancel.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Dominique. I’m sorry to hear that you found the trial period too short , however please bear in mind- the trial is not designed to be a period for you to get content back, 7 days simply isn't enough time for this. Usually a creator won't have even received the product in this time. Having said that- you can still (even when you've canceled) access the content once the creators have published this on the platform and it's yours for life to use as you wish. The free trial is a valuable opportunity for your brand to determine if Social Cat aligns with your needs. While you can fully use the platform and collaborate with creators, receiving content within this timeframe is not the standard, so it's important to set expectations accordingly.

I engaged 3 influencers as a test to see if it would help my sales. One did a nice and thorough package opening and used the product. One just posted a picture that was hard to see the product and I don't know what the 3rd one did. Collectively they had some 60,000 followeres but I didn't see any sales increase in the weeks following my test. Maybe my product isn't right for the 25-40 fashion hungry followers or maybe it is.

Thank you for your review, Craig! 🌟 The 7 day free trial is a valuable opportunity for your brand to determine if Social Cat aligns with your needs. While you can fully use the platform and collaborate with creators, receiving content within this timeframe is not the standard, so I'm very happy you've had some great results already! Don't forget- you own the usage rights to the video you liked so can use this for your own marketing, socials etc in future too. Also don't forget you can always log back in (even without a subscription) and see what that third creator has come up for you in the meantime! (Might be some absolutely amazing content waiting in your inbox!)

They are looking for cheap ugc creators who would do it for less. They actually force you to lower your price by trying to convince you that others charge less.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Seda. I understand your concerns, I'm entirely not sure who you're referring to with anyone dictating pricing though? We don't set compensation and definitely do not communicate around this to you at all. We encourage you to do different things (such as Meta verify and be quick to respond etc) in order to RAISE your collaboration amount, we would never advise to lower this. We appreciate your insights and will continue to work on improving the experience for both creators and brands alike. If you have any further suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out!
