Kindling is web software for operating an advocate program across LinkedIn, X and YouTube activities. It includes program analytics and integrations with Salesforce and HubSpot. The product has three paid plans and no free plan. Self serve costs $299 a month, with unlimited advocate enrollment, plus 15% on creator payouts and $1.49 per accepted advocate per month while enrolled. Managed service costs $10,000 a month and has a six-month minimum. Enterprise costs $30,000 a month and requires a twelve-month minimum. These options cover self-service operation and two higher-priced service arrangements, each with its stated commitment. Teams can use the listed social activities to run advocacy work, review program analytics, and connect campaign information with either of the listed CRM systems. Kindling is available through the web, so the supplied platform information describes browser access rather than native desktop or mobile applications. The lowest listed monthly price is the Self serve plan, but its additional payout and enrolled-advocate charges remain part of the plan terms.
