Introduction
inBeat and Goldfish are both managed influencer agencies, so this comparison is about focus and region rather than software you log into. inBeat is a performance agency in Montreal, with a reported second base in Los Angeles, built around micro-influencers, UGC and paid social. Goldfish is an influencer agency reported out of Bogota, Colombia that runs campaigns across Latin America. Both deliver campaigns for you rather than hand you a tool.
A quick note on identity. Goldfish is an ambiguous name that also attaches to a London digital agency, so the entity here is the Bogota-based influencer shop and is worth confirming. Neither agency publishes a creator database size or a rate card, since both sell done-for-you services. Every figure here is reported and worth checking directly. At the end we cover where Flinque fits as the self-serve software alternative to both.

What inBeat is
inBeat is a performance-focused influencer agency reported to run out of Montreal, with a further presence in Los Angeles. It works mainly in micro-influencers, user-generated content and paid social, pairing creator content with performance media rather than one-off brand posts. Its publicly stated clients include Nordstrom, New Balance and 7-Eleven, established names that suit its content-and-performance model.
Public detail does not go much further. inBeat does not disclose a creator database size or any pricing, so you scope the work directly and pay agency fees rather than a subscription. The micro-influencer and UGC approach fits brands that need authentic content at volume for paid channels. It is not built for a team that wants to search and vet creators for itself.

What Goldfish is
Goldfish is an influencer marketing agency reported to be based in Bogota, Colombia, with a focus on campaigns across Latin America. Its publicly stated clients include Procter and Gamble, Samsung, Coca-Cola and Uber, a roster of large multinationals investing in the region. As a managed agency it takes on strategy, creator selection and delivery so your own team does not run any software.
One caveat matters up front. Goldfish is a generic name that also maps to a London digital agency, so the entity here is the Bogota influencer shop and should be confirmed. Beyond its client list the agency publishes little, with no creator database size, feature set or pricing in public. It fits a brand that wants Latin American influencer reach delivered for it, though the specifics arrive only in a sales conversation.

Head to head
The choice here is about region and content model. inBeat is the pick when you want micro-influencer content and paid social run from a North American base. Goldfish is the stronger option when your priority is influencer reach across Latin America from a partner that works those markets. Both are managed services though, so neither hands your team software to run discovery and vetting without an agency in the loop. Confirm Goldfish's identity too, given the shared name.
Where each one leaves a gap
The trade-offs are clear.
- inBeat keeps its numbers private, so there is no public database size, feature list or pricing to weigh before a conversation. You are judging it on its client list and its UGC pitch, not a spec sheet.
- Its focus on micro-influencers and paid social means a brand after large-scale reach or celebrity creators may find it narrow. The angle that makes it effective also limits it.
- As a managed service it means fees and a scoping process rather than a login, so a team that wants to operate discovery itself gets a service instead of software.
- Goldfish shares its name with at least one unrelated agency, so simply confirming you have the right company takes effort before any campaign talk. That ambiguity is a real friction point.
- Beyond a client list it publishes very little, with no database size, feature set or pricing to compare. The detail only surfaces once you are in a pitch.
- Goldfish runs campaigns for you, so it does not give an in-house team a tool to find and vet creators directly. Teams wanting that control need software rather than an agency.
Where Flinque fits
Flinque is the self-serve software alternative to both. Instead of hiring a team to run campaigns, you search and vet creators yourself in a platform with a reported 10 million-plus verified creators across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and X, spanning a reported 25-plus countries. Every profile carries a reported 200 data points and a fake-follower check, with 12 filters across creator and audience data.
If you want a partner to own delivery, inBeat and Goldfish are both managed options depending on whether you lead with UGC and paid social or Latin American reach. But if you would rather find verified creators yourself on four platforms with a price you can see and no demo or annual lock-in, that is what Flinque offers at a flat Free of $0, Starter at $49 a month or Enterprise at $150 a month.
