What is Hypefy?
Hypefy runs influencer marketing campaigns for brands and agencies. You describe your product in a chat, an AI agent writes the campaign brief, and Hypefy proposes Instagram and TikTok creators from its own pool of more than 3,000 vetted influencers and an external database of more than 12 million. It then handles outreach, contracts, messages and payment to creators; you approve each piece of content before it goes up, and a dashboard tracks reach, engagement, clicks and conversions through personal codes or links.
There is no subscription. You set one campaign budget, starting at €2,500, and that exact sum is invoiced once when you launch; Hypefy's fee comes out of it. Everything before launch, the brief, the matched creators and the outreach drafts, is free.
Hypefy is run by Hypefy World d.o.o. in Zagreb, Croatia, with a US company, Hypefy Inc., in Delaware. Its terms are governed by Croatian law.
Is Hypefy worth it?
Influencer marketing is easy to start and tiring to finish. You find creators, many never answer, the ones who do quote different rates, and someone has to chase the posts and the invoices.
Hypefy takes the whole chase off your desk. An AI agent turns a chat about your product into a brief, the platform suggests creators from Instagram and TikTok, and Hypefy does the outreach, contracts and payments. You approve each piece of content before it is posted. The price is a single number: pick a budget from €2,500, and that is the invoice, once, at launch. Nothing before launch costs anything, so you can see the matched creators and walk away.
The sample estimate on the pricing page shows what a campaign might look like, 11 to 28 creators and 667K to 1.6M people reached, but does not say which budget it is for. Creator rates come from Hypefy's own pricing model and are not negotiable.
The catch: Hypefy says the majority of your budget goes to creators and a smaller share to its work, without giving the share, so you cannot compare it with a marketplace's 5 to 10% fee, a figure from Hypefy's own comparison table. Its terms say it does not vet or control the businesses or influencers on the platform, which sits awkwardly next to a homepage promising carefully vetted creators and bot checks. Fees are generally non-refundable, disputes go to arbitration in Croatia, and you give up class actions. The privacy policy does not mention AI, the public social data it collects about creators, or where data is stored. And the homepage claim that it cuts management time by 90% comes with no method.
Our take: for a brand that has never run creators and wants one invoice instead of one per creator, Hypefy is a reasonable first campaign, especially since the planning is free. Before you launch, ask in writing what share of the budget reaches creators.
Where it earns its place
The marketing lead at a 15-person skincare brand
Run a first TikTok creator campaign for a new serum
Describe the product in the chat, review the matched creators for free, then launch at the €2,500 minimum; you approve each video, and personal discount codes show which creators drove sales.
A small agency managing three consumer clients
Avoid a monthly platform subscription for occasional creator campaigns
Plan each client's campaign without paying, and launch only the ones the client signs off; each is a single invoice in euros with no retainer underneath.
Before you commit
- Setup
- Sign up on the web app, describe your product and edit the brief the agent writes; Hypefy says a first campaign can launch in under 30 minutes.
- Integrations
- Instagram and TikTok for creators; a web dashboard with reports. The site does not mention an API.
- Data and privacy
- Hypefy World d.o.o. in Croatia is named throughout the GDPR-based privacy policy, which lists one processor, the UK marketing agency Sopro. It gives no retention periods and does not cover AI providers, training use or international transfers.

- A campaign costs exactly the budget you set, from €2,500 to €100,000 or more; how much reaches creators is not published.
- Limits
