Upfluence is an all-in-one influencer and creator marketing platform that helps ecommerce and D2C brands find, contact, manage, and pay content creators while tying campaigns directly to sales. Built around a searchable database of millions of creator profiles across seven social networks and deep integrations with platforms like Shopify, Upfluence positions influencer marketing as a measurable revenue channel rather than a branding expense. Its distinctive Live Capture technology surfaces influential creators from a brand's own customer base, and its Jaice AI co-pilot automates campaign briefs, creator matching, and outreach.
ProductWind is a Seattle-based retail influencer marketing platform that helps enterprise brands ramp new product launches in days instead of months. Founded in 2020 by former Amazon product lead Jason Kowalski and ex-Uber engineer Tom Hirschfeld, the company mobilizes thousands of retail-native creators to drive social content, reviews, SEO and sales velocity on marketplaces like Amazon and Walmart. Its core idea - 'marketing to the algorithm' - treats retailer AI systems as a second customer alongside human shoppers, coordinating waves of creator activity to push products from page five to page one.
