The pitch

What walked into the Den

Massago ran an app out of Thornhill, Ontario that sent registered massage therapists to a customer's home or office on demand.

Allan Skok and Melissa Bennett pitched in season 15, asking $500,000 for a 12.5 percent stake, which valued the company at $4 million.

After the show

What happened next

There was no deal. In a LinkedIn article about the experience, co-founder Allan Skok wrote plainly that Massago received no offer from any Dragon, even after a warm on-air comment from Michele Romanow that she was already a client.

The business appears to have wound down since. By July 2026 the massago.ca domain redirected to an expired-listing auction page and the company's iOS app returned a not-found error on every storefront we tried, two independent signals pointing to closure.

Our read

The Hub verdict

A $500,000 ask for 12.5 percent implies a $4 million valuation on an on-demand massage app, and no Dragon made an offer, a point the founder set down himself afterwards. On-demand services live or die on the density of supply: every booking needs a registered therapist willing to travel to it, which caps how fast the model can grow and how much margin survives the journey. Massago has since wound down, its domain sitting on an expired-listing auction page and its app pulled from the store.

No offer from any Dragon, and the service has since shut down

Worth knowing: A dead domain and a pulled app listing both point to a closed business.
