Traditional Influencers
Traditional influencers are real people or celebrities with a large audience.
They are useful when a brand wants attention from an existing community.

UGC Creators

Their value is in creating content that feels natural, relatable, and platform-native.
You are producing content.
You are not building a reusable media asset.
AI Influencers
AI influencers are digital personalities designed to appear in content and represent a specific identity, niche, or brand direction.
You are not just creating content.
You are building a scalable, brand-owned media asset.
