Built-in Instagram Amplification. No other platform has this.
When you publish an Instagram post as a dog brand, Dogfluence automatically matches it with dog creators who are likely to engage with it on Instagram. Their real comments, co-authoring, and storytelling dramatically boost your Instagram post performance — and compound your account health with every post you boost.
Traditional influencer platforms
- Your Instagram post reaches existing followers only — zero new reach
- Flat IG engagement — Instagram's algorithm sees no momentum
- No creator matching for your Instagram content
- Your Instagram account health stagnates between campaigns
With Dogfluence
- Your Instagram post is matched with suitable dog creators
- Creators comment and co-author on Instagram — real IG engagement from relevant profiles
- Every boost dramatically improves your Instagram post performance
- Continuous amplification compounds your Instagram account health over time
