Do my creators need to sign up?

No. You add their handle or paste a link, and we follow the public numbers from there. There is nothing for them to install, approve or log in to. Asking creators to sign up is the step that kills most tools like this, so there isn't one.

Which apps does it work with?

TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. Those three cover almost all the short video that brings people to an app.

What if my creators do not tag me?

That is the normal case, and it still works. We watch the accounts on your list instead of watching for mentions of your brand. Posts with no tag, and accounts with no face, are covered the same way.

Why not just use a spreadsheet?

A spreadsheet cannot check view counts every day, cannot tell you a creator is two posts short, and cannot compare 400 posts by hook type in one click.

$39 a month if you are on your own, $99 once you run a full list of creators, and $249 for agencies handling a few brands. No sales call and no yearly contract.

How does the free trial work?

Seven days on any plan, and you do not need a card. The trial covers one campaign and 500 posts, and exports unlock when you subscribe. The fair test is to load a campaign you already ran and see what it tells you about posts you already know.

UGC Trackr is a back office for creator programs. PostRadar is the lightweight tracker for founders.

UGC Trackr is built for teams running structured tech UGC programs: briefs, a creator portal, review flows, leaderboards and automated payouts. If you have a creator manager and dozens of creators on contract, it's a strong pick.

PostRadar starts from a different place. Most app and SaaS founders running UGC are one person with a list of creators and a spreadsheet. They don't need a portal. They need to know who hasn't posted, what the real view counts are, and which videos are worth copying.

The decision comes down to how you want creators involved

Onboarding

UGC Trackr asks creators to sign up and link their TikTok, Instagram, YouTube or Facebook accounts. That gives you a portal and cleaner submissions, but every creator who doesn't finish sign-up is a gap in your data.

PostRadar has no creator step. You add their handle and we follow the public numbers. Nothing to install, approve or log in to.

Reviewing vs. learning

UGC Trackr gives you a review manager to approve videos before they go live. PostRadar doesn't do pre-approval. It focuses on what happens after posting: tag each post by hook, format, length and CTA, then compare which kind got the most views. Groups with fewer than five posts are hidden so you don't act on a fluke.

Payouts

UGC Trackr calculates and sends payouts, with tax forms handled. PostRadar calculates what you owe (flat fee, per post, or per 1,000 views) and locks the view count on a date. You pay creators the way you already do.

Choose UGC Trackr if...

You run a large, structured program and want creators to log in, receive briefs, submit for review and get paid inside one system. You need 1099s handled for you, or Facebook coverage, or an API.

Choose PostRadar if...

Your creators won't sign up for yet another tool, or you work with faceless accounts and creators who forget to tag you. You want to see which hooks and formats bring views so you can write a better brief. And you want to start at $39 instead of $150.
