An API-to-API comparison
CreatorDB API vs
Influencers.club API
A side-by-side comparison of the CreatorDB API and the Influencers.club API: published pricing, documented credit costs, endpoint coverage and the data each one returns per creator. No dashboard features, no campaign suites — just what you can call from code.
Updated August 2026
CreatorDB API vs Influencers.club API: the short answer
Access is the fork. Influencers.club is self-serve: a trial key on signup with 10 free credits and no card, published per-endpoint credit prices, and paid plans from $208/month on the Pro plan as published. CreatorDB’s API v3 is in closed beta — access is by enterprise application through sales, there is no self-serve signup or sandbox, and while per-call credit costs are documented (a full profile is 2.0 credits), the price of a credit is not published anywhere.
Breadth against depth-on-three. Influencers.club runs 21 endpoint groups off a single credit pool across six full-profile platforms and 47 via linked identities: discovery with 90+ documented filters, enrichment by handle or by email in either direction, batch jobs, connected accounts as a social graph, and campaign monitoring with webhooks and aggregated EMV. CreatorDB documents roughly 45 endpoints on three platforms — 14 for YouTube, 11 for Instagram, 10 for TikTok, plus natural-language search, a usage endpoint and a dedicated sponsor family — and returns up to 245 data points per creator with fields-only fractional billing, so a two-field call costs 0.2 credits instead of 2.0.
The honest trade. CreatorDB wins sponsor and brand intelligence outright — dedicated /sponsor endpoints across a 14.8K-brand index plus per-creator sponsorship history on YouTube and Instagram — along with content search inside videos with subtitle download, per-field billing granularity, a freshness stamp on every response with a self-described near-daily refresh on active creators, and a 45-tool MCP server listed on the official registry. Everything else — access terms, published pricing, platform breadth, audience analytics depth, the contact and identity layer, and campaign tracking — favours Influencers.club.
On commercials: Influencers.club is from $208/month on the Pro plan as published, cancel anytime, 10 free credits to test with no card. CreatorDB publishes per-call credit costs but no plan or credit prices; access is by application, with evaluation keys for selected clients, conditions apply.
Access, audience depth and the identity layer
Live in minutes, priced in public: trial key on signup, published credit prices, from $208/month on the Pro plan as published. Audience analytics go past demographics into engaged-audience interests across a 32-interest, 413-sub-interest taxonomy, credibility as a score with a class label, and reachability. Then the identity layer CreatorDB doesn’t document: reverse lookup from an email at 0.05 credits, connected accounts across 47 platforms as a social graph, batch enrichment, and campaign monitoring with webhooks.
Sponsor intelligence and content search
A dedicated sponsor family no one else in this comparison set documents: brand list, brand information, summary and performance endpoints across a 14.8K-brand index, plus per-creator sponsorship history on YouTube and Instagram. Content search runs against the videos themselves, with subtitle download on YouTube. Fields-only billing prices each call by the fields you request, and every response carries a freshness stamp. Its 45-tool MCP server is listed on the official MCP registry.
Choose by what your pipeline calls
If the job is brand and sponsorship intelligence on YouTube and Instagram, or searching inside video content, CreatorDB has endpoints built for exactly that — if your use case clears its enterprise application. If the job is finding creators, enriching them with audience analytics and a validated contact record, and tracking campaigns — across more than three platforms, starting today, at published prices — that is the Influencers.club shape.
The CreatorDB and Influencers.club APIs at a glance
This page compares APIs only. CreatorDB is operated by East West International Marketing Group, which also runs agency services on the same dataset; agency work is out of scope here, as are any dashboard features on either side. What is compared is what each vendor documents as callable from code, as published in August 2026.
What does the CreatorDB API cost?
CreatorDB publishes no API prices. API v3 is in closed beta, accepting applications from enterprise users through sales; evaluation keys are offered to selected clients, conditions apply. What it does publish is per-call credit costs — a full profile is 2.0 credits, and fields-only billing prices smaller calls fractionally — but the price of a credit itself appears nowhere in the public docs or site, so a first-year cost cannot be computed from published material.
Influencers.club: from $208/month on the Pro plan, as published. Cancel monthly, and 10 free credits with no card before you pay anything.

What endpoints do the CreatorDB and Influencers.club APIs offer?
Influencers.club documents 21 endpoint groups from one key and one credit pool. CreatorDB documents roughly 45 endpoints organised by platform — 14 for YouTube, 11 for Instagram, 10 for TikTok — plus natural-language search, a usage endpoint and a dedicated sponsor family. The structural difference: Influencers.club is cross-platform per call, while CreatorDB is one platform per call with the profile, audience, contact and sponsorship reads split into separate endpoints you compose yourself.

What data does each API return per creator?
Both APIs return a deep creator record. CreatorDB’s pitch is depth per creator on its three platforms — up to 245 data points, 4+ years of time-series, and a freshness stamp on every response. It is also the only competitor in this comparison set that documents email verification: a triple pass through ZeroBounce, NeverBounce and MillionVerifier, with a 99.8% rate claimed across 1M+ verified addresses. Where the record thins out is classification and identity: no niche taxonomy of comparable depth is documented, and there is no reverse lookup from an email or cross-platform identity graph.
| Detail | Influencers.club API | CreatorDB API |
|---|---|---|
| Identity & metrics | ||
| Core profile & metrics | Yes | Yes — up to 245 data points per creator, self-reported |
| Historical time-series | Growth and posting-frequency metrics | 4+ years of historical time-series |
| Per-response freshness stamp | Not returned | lastDbUpdateTime on every response; near-daily refresh on active creators, self-described |
| Classification | ||
| Creator niche classification | 32 niches → 413 sub-niches, on every profile | Category and topic fields; no niche taxonomy of comparable depth documented |
| Contact layer | ||

| Reverse lookup from an email | 0.05 cr | Not documented |
| Cross-platform identity graph | Connected accounts across 47 platforms Unique | Not documented |
Does the CreatorDB API include audience demographics?
Yes — and that is where it stops. CreatorDB’s audience endpoints return country, gender and age on its three platforms. Interests, credibility scoring and reachability are not documented anywhere in its public schemas. Influencers.club returns the demographic block plus engaged-audience interests resolved across a 32-interest, 413-sub-interest taxonomy, credibility as a score with a class label and histograms, and reachability — on six platforms.
| Detail | Influencers.club API | CreatorDB API |
|---|---|---|
| Audience gender & age | Yes, + gender cross-tab | Yes — on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok |
| Audience location | To city level | Country level |
| Audience interests | 32 interests → 413 sub-interests | Not documented |
| Audience credibility / fake-follower signal | Score, class label and histograms | Not documented |
| Reachability | Yes | Not documented |
| Lookalike audiences | Yes | Similar-channel endpoints; creator-level, not audience-level |
CreatorDB API vs Influencers.club: campaign tracking and monitoring
CreatorDB documents no campaign or monitoring endpoints — no campaign object, no webhooks, no event delivery. Its 4-plus years of time-series are the raw material for building tracking yourself, on a polling loop you run. Influencers.club ships campaign monitoring as a first-class API family: campaigns as objects, creators added programmatically, webhook delivery for new posts and profile changes, and per-creator metrics with aggregated EMV.
| Detail | Influencers.club API | CreatorDB API |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign as an API object | Create, update, pause, archive Unique | Not documented |
| Delivery model | Webhook push | No webhooks documented — poll the time-series endpoints yourself |
| Add creators programmatically | Yes | Not documented |
| Per-creator campaign metrics | Posts, views, ER, EMV, trend | Build it yourself from the time-series endpoints |
| New-post / bio-change events | Webhooks for new posts, bio and link-in-bio changes, follower milestones | Not documented |
How many creators does each API cover?
CreatorDB cites 30M+ creators across YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, with up to 245 data points per creator and a stated strength in Asian-market coverage. Influencers.club cites 340M+ profiles across 47 platforms, with full profiles on six. The two numbers describe different strategies: CreatorDB indexes fewer creators more deeply on three platforms; Influencers.club indexes an order of magnitude more creators, every one carrying contact data, across a wider platform set. Both figures are self-reported, not audited.

Which API is better: CreatorDB or Influencers.club?
Scored on API capability only, out of 5 per category. Dashboard features and agency services are excluded from both sides.
Influencers.clubCreatorDBPick CreatorDB if your pipeline is built around sponsor and brand intelligence on YouTube and Instagram, searching inside video content, or squeezing per-field economics out of deep three-platform records — and your use case clears its enterprise application. Its sponsor endpoint family has no equivalent on this page.
Pick Influencers.club for everything else: self-serve access today at published prices, six full-profile platforms plus a 47-platform identity graph, audience analytics past demographics, a validated contact layer with reverse lookup and batch, and campaign monitoring with webhooks. On the scores above it wins 40 to 25 — but the two wins CreatorDB takes, it takes outright.

How this comparison was put together
Every credit cost and endpoint on this page comes from each vendor’s published pages and API documentation, re-verified against the live specs in August 2026. Scope is deliberately narrow: API capability only. CreatorDB’s agency services and any dashboard features on either side are out of scope. Where CreatorDB publishes no figure — credit prices, plan prices, rate limits, per-platform counts — the page says so rather than estimating.
Database figures, data-point counts and refresh cadences are self-reported by each vendor and are not independently audited. Treat them as vendor claims. Audience demographics from any vendor in this category, including Influencers.club’s, are statistical estimates rather than platform-verified analytics.
This page is published by Influencers.club, so read the scoring with that in mind. CreatorDB wins sponsor and brand intelligence and content-level search outright, and it is the only vendor here documenting triple email verification. If something here is out of date or wrong, send a correction and it will be logged with a date.
