Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Stayfluence · creators, brands, data, and ethics.
Yes — directory access and direct contact are free today. No commission on your deals, no hidden paywall. We earn from optional sponsorship and brand partnerships. If we ever introduce a premium plan (advanced analytics, integrated outreach), it will stay additional and the base directory will remain accessible.
Two profiles: (1) creators of every niche who want a public referenced profile and a free media kit; (2) brands, hotels, restaurants, agencies looking for the right influencers for their campaigns.
Once your free brand account is created, you access the directory with extracted emails, stats, niche/audience filters. Export to CSV and send your emails from your usual tool (Mailchimp, Lemlist, HubSpot, Brevo, your Gmail). Stayfluence stays out of the loop.
Only from public bios that creators have themselves displayed on Instagram, YouTube, or Linktree to make collaborations easier. No illegal scraping, no purchased lists.
Yes. You can request removal of your profile or edit what's public from your dashboard at any time. We respect GDPR.
Travel, food, fashion, beauty, fitness, decor, tech, gaming, music, art, comedy, business, sport, automotive, family, lifestyle. Automatic detection runs on the bio + YouTube topics + keywords.
A few reasons: private Instagram account (we only show public ones), audience too low for your niche's qualification threshold, or bio too short to qualify. Sign up for free so we push your profile.
We scan niche-relevant hashtags on Instagram and TikTok, we parse qualified YouTube channels, and we analyze 'top X creators' articles around the world. Everything is done from public data. If we've listed you without a request, you can always claim your profile or ask for its deletion from your dashboard.
Never. You negotiate directly with the brand (or creator). The deal is yours. That's the entire point of difference vs platforms like Modash or Lefty that take 10–30% and force their funnel.
No — Instagram, TikTok and YouTube ban cold automated DMs. It ends in account bans for the brand. We provide public emails + you'll be able to open a manual DM with a pre-filled template once we ship that feature.
For now, it's free for everyone. Eventually we'll add premium features for brands that want to automate their campaigns (pitch templates, e-signature, pipeline tracking). The base directory will stay free.
Yes — write to hello@stayfluence.com (or via social). We read everything and ship fast.
