Our take — AppsFlyer for short drama

AppsFlyer is the attribution layer most paid-UA teams reach for first: it maps every install and in-app purchase back to the campaign and creative that drove it, across mobile, web, and CTV. For short drama, where a studio may run hundreds of creatives per series on TikTok and Meta, our read is that this granularity is the difference between scaling winners and burning budget.

The classic tradeoff is AppsFlyer versus Adjust. AppsFlyer is the bigger ecosystem — the site cites 15,000 brands — with broad integrations, built-in fraud protection, and an emerging agentic-AI suite; Adjust counters with iOS SKAN depth. Our take: default to AppsFlyer for channel coverage, but shortlist both if iOS is your primary short-drama market and privacy-era measurement keeps stinging.

Best for

Short-drama studios running multi-channel paid UA that need creative-level install and revenue attribution.

Watch out

Free sign-up exists, but full pricing isn't public — model costs against your install volume with sales first.
