Where they pull apart

AeroLeads

Stands out: A credit database with a $49 Take Off rung: list building, not a sequencer.

Watch out: Confirm current Take Off / Climb / Cruise pricing on a quote before you budget. Free credits are not a timed trial.

Not the right fit for

EU GDPR-first enrichment
People who need a sequencer
Buyers who need a published price grid

Apollo

Stands out: A large people database plus email sequences in one login, with MCP and a Chrome extension.

Watch out: Data quality varies by segment, and it does not match enterprise tools for intent data and org charts.

Not the right fit for

Buyers who need enterprise-class intent and org charts
Teams that want an ATS
