The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Dovetale before its acquisition by Shopify (now sold as Shopify Collabs), Dovetale's Starter plan was $99 USD per month for only 3 users, and jumping to 10 users required the Pro plan at $499 USD per month, a five-fold price increase for roughly triple the seats (archived pricing page, 7 August 2020); Influencity influencity discloses no plan names or prices on its pricing page; access is gated behind a 7 day free trial after which buyers must book a call or request a demo, with plan selection itself handled through a sales consultation rather than a self-serve comparison chart
  • They diverge on capability: Dovetale covers Creator discovery, Influencity covers AI-powered discovery.
