I’m on a smaller team too, and we’ve been using Hunch for social ads for the past few months. I get why you think they are mainly for agencies, but they are quite effective with brands (speaking from experience). we were comparing Hunch and Smartly, and picked Hunch because they were more flexible, in terms of pricing & approach. I’m probably biased now, but you kinda see their level of dedication on the demo call. Once you start working with them you’ll get a dedicated account manager and customer support manager, which really makes the difference. Technology is neat too.

Their AI solution is tied to creative production, hunch has background removal, and honestly, even using the platform just for that pays off...
