Modash alternatives worth considering

Modash is one of the best-known influencer discovery tools, and for good reason: a very large creator database, solid analytics and built-in campaign tools. It's also priced for teams running sizable programs. If you're looking at Modash alternatives because of price, contact data or outreach, this guide covers what Modash costs today, what to compare, and six alternatives with prices checked on each vendor's own site.

Modash pricing and plans today

According to Modash's pricing page:

Modash offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card, limited to 20 profile views, 6 email unlocks and 10 tracked creators. It describes its database as 380M+ creators with over 1,000 followers on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Annual billing is available; check the page for the current terms.

What to look for in an alternative

• Price for your volume. Count how many creator profiles and contact emails you'll need each month, then compare plan limits, not just headline prices.
• Contact data. How many verified emails you can unlock, and whether that's capped.
• Platforms. Instagram, TikTok and YouTube are standard; LinkedIn, X, Twitch and newsletters are not.
• Discovery signals. Can you search by what creators have promoted, not just categories and follower counts?
• Outreach and CRM. Whether you can email creators from the tool, follow up automatically and track deals.
• Payments and affiliate tools, if you pay many creators or run commission programs.
• Contracts. Month-to-month, annual minimums, trials.

The alternatives

1. topYappers

Best for: small teams that want creator search, contact emails and outreach in one place at a low price.

topYappers covers 44M+ creators across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Twitch and newsletters. Its standout feature is promotion history: every profile lists the brands and products the creator has promoted, so you can find creators who already sell products like yours, or see who works with your competitors. It includes contact emails, an Outreach Agent that writes and sends personalized emails with follow-ups from your own inbox, a creator CRM, post tracking, and an API and MCP server.

Price: $59 per month or $299 per year. You can start free: paste your website to get a brand brief and 10 matched creators. See pricing.

Trade-off: the database is smaller than Modash's, and there's no built-in creator payments product.

2. HypeAuditor

Best for: teams that prioritize audience analytics and fraud checks.

HypeAuditor describes a 227M+ creator database with 35+ filters. It says its Basic plan starts at $299 per month billed annually, with about 1,000 contact emails per month; higher tiers are quoted by sales, with discounts for annual and two-year agreements. Free trials are available through sales. See our HypeAuditor alternatives guide.

Best for: larger ecommerce brands that want an all-in-one suite with payments and affiliate tools.

Its entry plan includes a 14M+ creator database, search, lookalikes and mass outreach; higher plans add a creator marketplace, ecommerce integrations, affiliate tools and creator payments.

Comparison table

When Modash is still the better pick

• You need the biggest possible database of Instagram, TikTok and YouTube creators, including small ones.
• You pay many creators and want payments and affiliate management built in (Performance plan and up).
• You run Shopify gifting at scale and want it in the same tool as discovery.
• Budget isn't the constraint, and your team will use the profile and email allowances each month.

If those describe you, Modash is a strong choice. If you mainly need to find relevant creators, get their emails and reach out without a big monthly bill, a lighter tool will likely serve you better. Our guide on how to find influencers for your brand covers the process whichever tool you pick.
