Insense Reviews & Product Details

I really appreciate that Insense offers payouts without additional fees, which makes the collaboration process more creator-friendly. I also love that payments are handled through the platform even if the brand becomes unresponsive, so I always feel protected and confident that my work will be compensated. The interface is easy to navigate, and it’s simple to find campaign opportunities that match my niche. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the pitch process for campaigns feels a bit too long and repetitive. It can take extra time to provide detailed answers for each opportunity, even when the project requirements are similar. I wish the application process was more streamlined, so creators could apply more quickly without sacrificing quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Insense gives me consistent access to real, paid UGC projects. The briefs are clear, the brands are responsive, and the workflow is easy to follow. Payments have been smooth, and I’ve booked a good mix of quick projects and higher-value campaigns. It’s been one of the more reliable platforms for keeping my creator workload steady, even while living abroad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some projects fill fast, so you need to check the app often. A few brands take longer to review content, which can slow down payouts. Nothing major, but those delays can add friction when I’m trying to keep a tight schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love connecting with new brands and learning about new products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Insense, so I hate to say this, but it’s wayyyy easier when I get to work with the brands directly, than it is when the brands hire the Insense team to do the work for them. Whenever I have to work with the Insense team, the collabs take over a month (sometimes two!) to close out, and the briefs always sound like they’re made by ChatGPT. In addition, the Insense team doesn’t do product research before sending the brief, so the briefs don’t always make sense. For example, one of my briefs asked me make the tin foil of a chocolate bar reflect the sunlight… but the chocolate bar wasn’t wrapped in tinfoil - it was wrapped in paper.

I like that I am recommended to campaigns by the insense team. I like that I can apply it decline campaigns as I see fit for my business and niche. I like that insense is easy to communicate with and gives timely responses. I like that I can negotiate and speak to the brand directly but if there are any issues with the campaign that the brand isn't able to resolve, insense can step in to help. It's an easy and fun way to work in ugc creation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dont like the brands can change scripts, products or expected content after hiring. I think the contact should be open fair and honest before the hiring process. It looks bad to cancel after you've been hired simply because the brand changed something on you last minute. This happens when 3rd parties are posting campaigns for multiple brands or products for the same quarter. I would like this to be more controlled or regulated by insense itself.

I’ve been using Insense for over a year and it has become one of my favorite platforms for UGC collaborations. I love how intuitive and easy the interface is to navigate, even when managing multiple campaigns at once. There is always a wide variety of brand campaigns across different niches, which makes it easy to find opportunities that truly match my style and content. The platform feels very creator friendly, and the overall workflow from application to content delivery is smooth and well thought out. I always recommend Insense to my fellow UGC creators because it genuinely helps streamline the collaboration process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn’t much to dislike, but occasionally communication with some brands can take longer than expected. It would be great to have even more tools that help creators stay updated on campaign progress or receive quicker responses. Otherwise, the platform works very well for my needs.

I love how they have really streamlined working with brands. From being able to match with brands, to timelines, payment and communication are all at the drop of a hat right there in the app! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There seems to be some issues the last few months where I would upload content for various brands, and then the content somehow never gets to the brand. I’ve thankfully found a way to get around that but it seems to just be an issue with the regular upload. When you upload content under “other content” it goes through fine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I truly love Insense; it has had a significant impact on my life. Since becoming a mom, I’ve been able to spend much more time with my daughter, largely because of the collaborations I’ve found through Insense. The payment process is simple and usually quite fast, and the partners I’ve worked with have been excellent. It’s really a fantastic app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really wish brands would communicate when they decide not to move forward with your application, rather than just leaving it pending for an extended period. It would be much better to receive a response, even if it's a rejection, instead of waiting without any update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like that Insense matches up your interests and lets us know if we're a match and highly likely to get hired. I like that there's a lot of variety and that I can choose what kind of work I want to do. Taking jobs I'm interested in helps me do a better job, especially with products, so I can give authentic reviews and do authentic work. It's great that Insense has everything together for me, so I don't have to go hunting for sources. The initial setup was fairly easy, and I got work almost immediately.

There are two things I wish could be improved with Insense. One is the response time. Sometimes you get a response from someone on the other side of the planet, and it's 3:00 AM where you are, which can mess up your timing. I wish there could be some allowance for that based on time zone differences. The other thing is about having a filter option. It would be great if you could choose whether you want raw footage only, raw footage plus ready-to-use ads, or ready-to-use ads only. I don't like doing editing and most of the time, I only take raw footage jobs. If there was a way to filter jobs based on this preference, that would be ideal.

I like Insense for its consistency in offering jobs, which helps me provide a steady income for my family. It's also helpful in securing brand deals all in one place and building relationships with brands. The initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel like there could be more transparency from brands when they are presenting the jobs. Oftentimes, they suggest that they will send the scripts after you're hired, and then it ends up being a lengthy job that exceeds the amount you were hired for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lots of opportunities and good products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pay scale, which ranges from $80 to $200, appears to be fairly consistent. However, I’ve noticed that the amount of work requested doesn’t always align with the compensation offered. For example, when a company asks for 20 b-roll clips in addition to a fully edited piece but only offers $150, it doesn’t match the pay standards I’ve seen on other platforms or among other creators. It feels like some companies are taking advantage of the lower pay rates to obtain more content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
