Is Modash worth the price?
6.5/10
Modash starts at $199/month (Essentials) with a 14-day free trial — reasonable for mid-size influencer programs managing up to 100 creators.
Performance at $499/month unlocks creator payments, content downloads, and affiliate tracking but adds a 5% payout fee that can quietly eat into budgets. Enterprise starts at $14,700/year with 0% payout fees, making it the only tier where payments are truly cost-neutral.

Which Plan Do You Need?
D2C brands running 50-100 creator campaigns→ Essentials ($199/mo)
300 profile views and 150 email unlocks per month cover moderate discovery needs without overpaying for payment features
Agencies managing influencer payments→ Performance ($499/mo)
Built-in payments and affiliate tracking, plus $10K in fee-free payouts annually — but watch the 5% fee beyond that
Enterprise brands with 250+ creators→ Enterprise ($14,700+/yr)
0% payout fees, SSO, dedicated success manager, and custom limits justify the price at scale
Our Recommendation
Worth it if...
You primarily need a massive creator database (350M+ profiles) for discovery and basic campaign tracking. The Essentials plan at $199/mo is one of the most affordable entry points with serious discovery power.
Skip if...
You need end-to-end campaign management with contracts, content approvals, and built-in licensing. Modash focuses on discovery and tracking, not full workflow orchestration.
Negotiation tips
Annual billing saves 33% on Essentials ($199 vs $299/mo). Push for higher profile view and email unlock quotas — these are the real usage bottlenecks. On Enterprise, negotiate the $14,700/year starting price down if your creator count is under 500.
