Mofos was created by Brazzers in 2008, acquired by Manwin in 2010, and is now owned by Aylo (formerly MindGeek). Aylo was acquired by Ethical Capital Partners in March 2023 and rebranded from MindGeek to Aylo in August 2023.

Is Mofos part of Pornhub's network?

Yes. Mofos is an Aylo sister brand alongside Pornhub, Brazzers, Reality Kings, Digital Playground, RedTube, YouPorn, and others. Content published on Mofos distributes through the full Aylo network.

Why do new performers get booked for Mofos?

Mofos was designed by Brazzers specifically to feature 'lesser-known pornographic actors' in reality-style scenarios, which in practice makes it a common entry point for newer performers into the Aylo network. The content reaches the full Aylo distribution chain the same as a Brazzers release.

If you’ve been offered a Mofos booking, it’s worth understanding that Mofos was specifically designed as the Aylo network’s entry tier for newer performers. The production is by Brazzers’s creators. The distribution is the full Aylo network — Pornhub, Brazzers, Reality Kings, Digital Playground, tube syndication. For the full parent-network record including the 2023 $1.8M federal DPA and ongoing class-action litigation, see the Brazzers entry.

What it is

Mofos is an Aylo-owned reality-porn brand that launched in 2008, originally created by Brazzers. The stated goal of the brand was to produce reality-style scenarios with simpler storylines featuring lesser-known performers than the Brazzers flagship roster. Over time, Mofos became a common entry-tier brand within the Aylo network — a first-time or early-career booking before moving up to Brazzers or other premium Aylo properties.

Ownership traces through the Aylo conglomerate: Brazzers created Mofos in 2008, Manwin acquired it in 2010, Manwin rebranded to MindGeek in October 2013, and MindGeek rebranded to Aylo in August 2023 following its acquisition by Ethical Capital Partners.

Content production happens within the Aylo/Brazzers production infrastructure. Distribution spans the full Aylo network.

How it operates

Booking for Mofos typically comes through the same agency and talent-relationship channels as the larger Aylo network. Because Mofos targets newer performers, an agent may offer a Mofos booking as an entry point before negotiating Brazzers bookings at higher rates.

Shoot production follows the Aylo/Brazzers model: paperwork first (2257, model release, W-9), PASS-compliant testing, professional crews, industry-standard shoot flow. Content is produced in the Aylo production facilities.

Distribution is the critical fact for any Aylo-network release. A Mofos scene distributes through Mofos.com first, then syndicates across sister Aylo sites and aggregators. One release into Mofos is a release into the full Aylo chain.

Publicly documented issues

Parent network · Mofos inherits the full Aylo-network documented record. See the Brazzers entry for the full list including: December 2023 US federal DPA ($1.845M fine for profiting from Girls Do Porn trafficked content), September 2025 FTC/Utah CSAM settlement, and the Fleites v. MindGeek class action certified in 2025. Before Your Scene
Corporate history · Mofos has been owned by three corporate entities in its existence: Brazzers (2008-2010), Manwin/MindGeek (2010-2023), and Aylo (2023-present). Each ownership change transfers the release obligations; contracts typically include successor-entity language. Wikipedia

Rate structure

Public pay figures specific to Mofos are not disclosed. Industry reporting places Mofos rates at the entry-tier of Aylo-network pay — typically below what Brazzers pays the same performer, reflecting the brand’s positioning as a starting-point booking rather than premium production.

Same-day pay at wrap is the Aylo-network norm. Rate differences between Mofos, Brazzers, and Reality Kings are individually negotiated per booking. A performer with an agent should understand why a specific booking is going to Mofos rather than a higher-paying sister brand.

Contract patterns

Mofos releases grant distribution rights across the Aylo network identically to Brazzers or Reality Kings releases. The release binds the current Aylo entity and typically extends to successor entities, which matters because Aylo is private-equity owned and ownership has already changed twice (Manwin → MindGeek → Aylo).

The sub-brand designation matters for scene-title tagging — a Mofos scene is filed under Mofos branding in search indexes, which reads differently from a Brazzers tag. Performers weighing the booking should know which sub-brand the scene is labeled under before signing.

Before signing, verify

Distribution scope across the Aylo network — which specific sister sites (Pornhub, Brazzers, Reality Kings, Digital Playground, tube syndication) your Mofos scene is authorized for
Why a booking is going to Mofos specifically rather than Brazzers or Reality Kings — rate difference, release-scope difference, or positioning for future bookings
Whether the release binds successor entities (the Aylo network's ownership has changed twice; it can change again)
Current age-verification and content-handling practices in writing — the parent network's documented record around CSAM distribution is material context
PASS testing for every participant, current within industry window, documented in advance
Rate and payment terms in writing before travel is booked
Any content-removal or takedown mechanism — at Aylo-network distribution scale, realistic answer is effectively none

How we do it differently

Mofos is specifically the Aylo network’s newer-performer onramp. It’s designed to be a first booking. But a Mofos release is still an Aylo-network release, and the permanent implications (full-network distribution, PE-owned parent that has been sold twice, documented federal settlement) apply the same as a Brazzers release. My First Scene is built for first scenes too — without committing your content to a global distribution conglomerate.

No network syndication. Our paysite only. Not Pornhub, not a tube chain, not a portfolio of sister brands.
One corporate entity, not a PE-rollup. We don’t change ownership under you.
Same-day pay direct to her. No agency or Aylo intermediary on the money.
No successor-assignment ambiguity. The release lives with the entity you signed with.
Written content-removal path. Process in the contract, not a policy buried in a corporate compliance program.
