Centripe is building an AI growth engine for marketing agencies. CRM, AI social agents, content generation, cross-selling tools — all designed to make agencies more efficient at managing their client portfolios. This is the right tool for the wrong entity. The question you should be asking is not "does my agency use AI?" It is "why do I need an agency at all when AI can do the work directly?"
TL;DR
Centripe arms agencies with AI tools. The Webevo platform arms service businesses directly. The difference is who the platform is optimized for. Our lane: get them found, get them leads, get them booked, get them retained. We don't manage patient charts, billable hours, or inventory — we fill your calendar. No agency required.
An AI Platform Built for Agencies, Not for You
Centripe's feature set reveals who the customer is:
- Multi-client dashboard — manages dozens of client accounts from one view (agency feature)
- Cross-selling tools — identifies upsell opportunities across the client base (agency feature)
- AI social agent — generates social content for multiple brands simultaneously (agency feature)
- CRM — tracks leads and client relationships across the portfolio (agency feature)
Every feature is designed to help the agency manage more clients with fewer people. This is a genuine business problem for agencies. But it is not your problem.
Your problem is: is my phone ringing? Are patients booking? Are reviews growing? Is my website ranking? Agency efficiency tools do not directly address these questions.
The Diminishing Returns of the Agency Middleman
The traditional agency model worked when marketing required specialized expertise that could not be automated. In 2026, AI can:
- Generate industry-specific content at expert quality
- Manage ad campaigns with real-time optimization
- Respond to reviews with contextual, on-brand replies
- Answer phone calls with complete CRM context
- Run SEO audits and fixes continuously
The agency added value by doing these things. Now AI does them. The agency's role shrinks to "operating the AI tool on your behalf" — a $3,000-$5,000/month middleman between you and the technology.
Centripe makes the agency more efficient at this middleman role. The Webevo platform eliminates the middleman role entirely by giving the Swipe-to-Approve control directly to the business owner.
| Model | Agency + Centripe | Webevo Platform (Direct) |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $3,000-5,000 (agency retainer) | Platform pricing only |
| Who operates the AI | Agency team | AI operates autonomously |
| Approval workflow | You → Agency → Centripe | You → Swipe-to-Approve |
| Response time | 24-72 hours (agency queue) | Real-time AI execution |
| Data ownership | Agency controls | You own everything |
| Vertical expertise | Agency's best guess | Pre-configured industry presets |
CRM Without Lead Generation Organizes an Empty Pipeline: CRM platforms manage customer relationships — contacts, pipelines, follow-up automation. But a perfectly organized empty pipeline is still empty. The Webevo platform fills the pipeline through SEO, voice AI, and reputation, then manages it through AI-powered CRM. Generation first. Management second.
The Verdict: Skip the Middleman
Centripe is solving the right problem for the wrong customer. Agencies need AI to stay competitive. But service businesses need AI to replace the agency model entirely.
