About MicroRate

Empowering micro-influencers with transparent pricing information and tools to build sustainable influencer careers.

Our Story

Founded in 2024, MicroRate was born from a simple observation: micro-influencers were consistently undervaluing their work, while brands were unsure about fair compensation rates.

As former influencers and marketing professionals, we saw a significant information gap in the industry. Many talented creators with 10K-100K followers were accepting rates far below market value because they lacked access to transparent pricing data.

We created MicroRate to bridge this gap. Our calculator uses real-time data from hundreds of actual brand deals across different platforms, niches, and engagement levels to provide accurate rate estimates.
