Fished is an enterprise-focused phishing simulation and security awareness training platform. Its core goal is not to directly block emails, but to test employee responses through simulated attacks and, after an employee clicks, redirect them to training content or a custom link. The site emphasizes that a first simulation can be set up βwithin 5 minutes,β making it suitable for organizations that want to launch a security awareness program quickly.
In terms of protection focus, Fished centers on employee-level anti-phishing training: adding employees, editing email templates, configuring senders, scheduling campaigns, and monitoring results in real time. Reports show what employees interacted with in the simulated attack, when and how they interacted, and also include User Agent and IP address information. The template library is updated continuously, and new simulations are sent each month to reinforce learning. Deployment is lightweight and handled entirely through the browser, with no client installation required; employees can be imported via form or CSV bulk upload. The Enterprise plan also mentions support for single sign-on and API access.
Pricing is straightforward: Trial is $0/month, requires no credit card, but supports only up to 1 employee, mainly for evaluation and sending test emails. Standard is $129/month for up to 100 employees, including unlimited phishing simulations, multi-scenario testing, and training access. Enterprise is custom-priced based on usage, supporting unlimited employees, SSO, and API access. The page also states that plans can be canceled or changed at any time, and that current pricing is an early-bird launch discount.
The advantages are simple onboarding, no installation required, real-time reporting, unlimited simulations on the Standard plan, and support for unlimited administrators and bulk imports. For small and midsize businesses, the feature scope is clear and can help build a complete training-and-assessment loop quickly. The drawbacks are also clear: public materials do not disclose details on compliance certifications, data residency, audit mechanisms, payment methods, or customer support SLA; user groups and SMS attacks are still marked as coming soon; and the free trial is quite limited, with upgrades required to actually send emails to employees or access training.
Fished is better suited to small and midsize businesses that need a low-barrier way to run phishing drills, as well as larger organizations that want SSO/API integration through the Enterprise plan. If an organization has strict compliance, data localization, or audit requirements, it should confirm these details with the vendor. Access from mainland China is not stated in the available text and is therefore unknown; payment methods are also not disclosed. Comparable options include KnowBe4, Proofpoint Security Awareness, Cofense, or self-hosted alternatives such as GoPhish.
