How to pick a UGC agency for an app
Ask what they are judged on. Views are easy to buy. Installs, trials and day-30 retention are what an app needs, and few agencies publish them.
Decide who runs the work. A marketplace like Billo or Insense is cheap per video but needs someone on your side writing briefs and buying ads. A managed agency costs more and runs the whole loop.
Check who owns the creators and the content when you leave. Some agencies keep creators under their own contract for the partnership; others hand everything over.
