The Best Modash Alternative for Influencer Marketing
From discovery to results, all in one platform
Modash is great for finding influencers and analysing their audiences. But it stops there. You still need to contact creators, negotiate rates, manage content, and handle payments separately. Burst handles the entire workflow.

Why Discovery Alone Is Not Enough
Modash helps you find influencers. Burst helps you work with them and get results.
Discovery vs Execution
Modash shows you 350M+ creators but you need to contact them, negotiate, and manage everything yourself. With Burst, creators apply to your campaigns, you approve content before it goes live, and payments are handled automatically.
Analytics vs Results
Modash gives you audience demographics and fake follower detection before you reach out. Useful research. But Burst shows you what actually matters: which creators and content drive views and sales for your brand.
Subscription vs Performance
With Modash you pay £160-400/mo for search access, then pay creators separately through your own negotiation. With Burst, creators earn based on performance. They are motivated to drive results because that is how they get paid.
What's great about Burst is that it drives sales twice. First from the creator's post, then again when I run it as an ad

What is Modash? How Does It Work?
Modash is an influencer discovery and analytics platform. It helps brands find creators by searching a database of 350M+ profiles across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. The platform provides audience demographics, engagement metrics, and fake follower detection.
The key thing to understand: Modash is a research tool, not a campaign management platform. You use it to find influencers, but everything else happens outside the platform. Outreach, negotiation, contracts, content approval, payments, and posting are all handled separately through email, spreadsheets, or other tools.
How Modash typically works
What is Burst? An All-in-One Platform
Burst is a complete influencer marketing platform. It handles everything from finding creators to managing campaigns, approving content, processing payments, and tracking results. The subscription is £97/mo, which includes access to 32,000+ pre-vetted creators.
The main difference from discovery tools: creators apply to your campaigns, you approve content before it goes live on their channels, and you only pay based on actual views or sales generated. No separate outreach, no negotiating rates, no chasing invoices.
