If your goal is a polished media kit that makes an influencer look established and credible to brand-partnership teams, I’d narrow it to three approaches:
| Option | Best for | My take |
|---|---|---|
| Canva | Beautiful, customizable PDF | 🥇 Best overall |

| More editorial/luxury design |
| 🥈 Best for fashion/beauty |
| Framekit | Modern media kit + website + PDF | 🥇 Best if you want something more sophisticated than a PDF |
For most influencers, Canva is still the safest choice. It has a large collection of purpose-built influencer/media-kit templates, easy brand customization, and clean PDF export.
The important part is not to simply fill in a generic template. I'd make it look like a miniature agency-designed brand deck:
I'd keep it to 4–7 pages rather than creating a giant presentation.
I'd consider Adobe Express if the influencer is in fashion, beauty, luxury, travel, photography, or another visually driven category. Adobe's brand-kit tools give you tighter control over fonts, colors and brand assets, and its templates can produce a more editorial feel.
A traditional PDF becomes outdated whenever follower counts and engagement numbers change. Newer creator platforms such as Framekit, MediaData, and Kitevo can provide a shareable online media kit, with some offering automatically updated social statistics.
My ideal setup would therefore be:
Beautiful Canva PDF + live online media-kit link
The PDF is excellent when a brand manager asks you to "send your media kit," while the live version gives you a current link you can put in your email signature, Instagram bio, or pitch emails.
If you're asking for a service where you hand someone your photos/stats and they design the entire thing for you, rather than a DIY platform, that's a different recommendation. There are specialist designers on Fiverr and similar marketplaces—for example, current influencer-focused offerings range from roughly $50–$110 for a custom media kit.
For a serious influencer trying to land higher-value brand deals, I'd personally spend the money on a custom-designed kit rather than using an untouched template.
If you tell me the influencer's niche (fashion, beauty, fitness, travel, lifestyle, food, etc.), approximate follower count, and whether you want DIY or done-for-you, I can find 3–5 specific services/designers and compare their current prices, portfolios, and quality.
When it comes to putting together a sleek, high-converting media kit for brand partnerships, a few platforms stand out depending on your design skills, budget, and how interactive you want the kit to be.
Here are the top services and platforms used by top-tier influencers:

I can help you outline the exact sections you need to include!
A professional influencer media kit should make it easy for a brand to answer three questions: Who is your audience? What results can you deliver? Why are you a good fit for our brand?
You don't need an expensive designer or a complicated website to get started. The best approach is to combine a polished template, verified audience statistics, strong portfolio examples, and a clear way for brands to contact you.

Creator-focused media kit tool
Worth exploring if you prefer a dedicated creator media kit rather than designing every page yourself. Creator-specific tools can be more convenient for presenting your profile and metrics in a shareable format. Check which social platforms and analytics integrations are supported before choosing a plan.
Best for: Creators who want a purpose-built media kit.
Creator website and business tools
Consider this if you want more than a PDF: a creator landing page, links to your content, and a central place for your creator business. Check the current plan features for the specific media kit functionality you need.
Best for: Creators who want one shareable online presence.
My recommendation: Start with Canva unless you specifically need a dedicated creator analytics tool. A well-designed two- or three-page PDF is enough for most brand pitches. If you pitch regularly, consider adding a shareable online version and a way to keep your metrics updated.
Aim for two or three pages, with a visual style that matches your content niche.
Page 1 — Your creator profile
Page 2 — Your stats and audience
Page 3 — Your portfolio and offers
These sections align with the information brands commonly look for when evaluating creators.
| Your situation | Best option |
|---|---|
| You want a beautiful, downloadable portfolio | Canva PDF |
| You want stats to update automatically | CreatorsJet or Beacons |
| You want a portfolio and link-in-bio page together | Beacons |
| You're pitching brands for the first time | Canva's free templates |
For live media kits, see CreatorsJet and Beacons Media Kit. Their features and plan limits differ, so check supported integrations and pricing before committing.
