Where they pull apart

6sense

Stands out: Predictive account scores plus a Sales Copilot that recommends actions, summarizes accounts and drafts messages.

Watch out: No public price. Emails, phones and exports need separate data credits, and predictive AI is a separate package.

Not the right fit for

  • SMBs that need a published per-seat checkout
  • Recruiters looking for a candidate sourcing database

Ocean.io

Stands out: It learns your ICP from won deals, then ranks every company in the market against that segment.

Watch out: There is no public paid rate card. Paid plans are a sales conversation after you start free.

Not the right fit for

  • Buyers who need a printed monthly credit pack
  • Teams with no won-deal history to seed a search

  • Built for enterprise GTM, not recruiting

Ocean.io

  • Ranks lookalikes from your won deals
  • Pushes to Salesforce, HubSpot, Clay
  • Free start, SOC 2 Type II named
  • No public paid prices
  • Needs won-deal history to shine
  • Not a cold-email sender
