Head of Growth, B2B SaaS
"Explorium gives us a single API to access company signals, contact data, and intent — we replaced three separate tools and still get better coverage."
Head of Growth
"CompanyEnrich is incredibly easy to use and the data quality is noticeably better than other tools I've tried. The AI semantic search is the standout feature — I can search for something like 'multi-brand lubricant distributors in the US' and get exactly what I need. The lookalike search is also spot-on."
Sales Development Representative, B2B Software
"What I like most about Snov.io is how simple and effective it is for finding and verifying email leads. The email finder, verifier, and drip campaign features are all in one place, which makes outreach much easier. It has streamlined our entire outbound workflow — from finding leads to automating follow-ups — in a way that's both intuitive and effective."

Yes. Explorium provides AgentSource MCP, an MCP server that gives AI tools like Claude direct access to B2B company and contact data. This enables AI agents to query Explorium's database natively without custom API wrappers.
Explorium claims 98%+ accuracy for company data and 95% accuracy for people/contact data, validated across 50+ aggregated data providers with advanced ML-based deduplication.
The default rate limit is 200 requests per minute per API key. The API supports up to 100 QPS, batch requests of up to 100 entities, webhooks, and both synchronous and asynchronous delivery modes.
Yes. Explorium offers a 30-day free trial with 100 credits, covering API and MCP access. Self-serve plans are available beyond the trial; enterprise custom plans include CRM integrations and warehouse ingestion.
High-velocity signals (intent, events, hiring) refresh daily. Semi-dynamic attributes refresh weekly. Stable firmographic fields refresh monthly or quarterly.
Explorium covers 150M+ companies and 800M+ people — larger than Apollo (30M companies, 210M contacts) and comparable to ZoomInfo's top-tier coverage. Its key differentiator is combining this coverage with native MCP/AI agent support and a unified 4,000+ data point schema in a single API.
CompanyEnrich provides company enrichment (industry, revenue, employee count, NAICS codes, funding, technologies, headquarters), contact/people profiles (170M+), semantic company search, AI-powered lookalike discovery, tech stack identification, and reverse email lookup — all via a single REST API.

Yes. CompanyEnrich offers 500 free credits upon signup, allowing teams to make real API calls and validate data quality before committing to a paid plan.
Pricing starts at $49/month with full API access on every plan. Annual plans are available at a discounted rate. Custom enterprise plans are available for organizations with specific scale or integration requirements — CompanyEnrich's engineers will join the scoping call to design a tailored solution.
Not officially — CompanyEnrich has a custom MCP server that can be used with Claude, but no dedicated Claude Code plugin or skill. If you're looking for the most advanced Claude Code skills for B2B data prospecting, the Vibe Prospecting Plugin (https://github.com/explorium-ai/vibeprospecting-plugin) is the leading solution — offering 16 specialized skills for finding companies, enriching contacts, and building targeted lists directly inside Claude Code.
Snov.io's verification pipeline goes beyond basic syntax and MX record checks. The 7 tiers include syntax validation, domain existence check, MX record verification, SMTP server ping, greylisting bypass (which prevents false negatives from servers that temporarily reject unknown senders), role-based email detection (like info@ or support@), and catch-all domain identification. This multi-step approach achieves a claimed 1.72% bounce rate on emails marked as 'valid', which is significantly lower than simpler verification tools that skip SMTP-level checks.
No. LinkedIn automation is a separate paid add-on at $69/month per LinkedIn slot (one LinkedIn account). It is not included in any of the base Starter or Pro plans. This add-on enables automated LinkedIn connection requests, messages, and InMails as part of multi-channel sequences. Teams evaluating Snov.io for multi-channel outreach should factor this additional cost into their total budget.
Snov.io includes a built-in email warm-up feature that automatically sends low-volume emails from your account to a network of real inboxes to establish domain reputation before high-volume cold outreach. Without warm-up, new or cold domains frequently land in spam folders. Each plan tier includes a number of warm-up slots — the free Trial includes 1 slot, Starter includes 3, and higher tiers include more. Warm-up typically runs for 2-4 weeks before a full campaign launch.
Snov.io plans have two separate limits: credits (used for finding and verifying emails) and recipients (the number of contacts you can add to email campaigns). The Starter plan allows 5,000 recipients per month; the Pro S plan allows 25,000 recipients. If your outreach volume requires sending to more contacts than your plan's recipient limit, you either need to upgrade or spread campaigns across multiple months. This is a common limitation that users hit as their outreach programs scale.
Both Snov.io and Apollo.io offer email finding, verification, and outreach automation. Apollo has a significantly larger contact database (270M+ vs. Snov.io's undisclosed size) and more advanced filtering and intent data features. Snov.io is generally considered more affordable at entry-level pricing and has a simpler interface for teams that just need the core workflow. Apollo is better for teams that need database discovery (finding net-new prospects) while Snov.io is stronger for teams that already know their target list and need to find/verify emails plus run campaigns.
