The short answer

Clay : Spreadsheet orchestration if you want more providers and AI columns. From $185/mo
FullEnrich : Cheaper waterfall email and mobile if you do not need list building. From $55/mo
Bitscale : Credit tables if your input is a CSV and you want another enrich grid. From $349/mo
Apollo : Native B2B graph if you do not want a multi-provider marketplace. From $49/user/mo

Why people look past Airscale

Airscale has no native contact database; credits pay for lookups across partner providers. A verified email costs 2 credits, and mobiles cost more.

What we noted

No native database; you buy provider hits
Mobile can run $0.15 each on Scale rates
Growth credit steps are easy to outgrow

Not the right fit for

Buyers who want one native contact graph, not a marketplace
Desks that will not watch per-provider credit costs

Worth keeping in mind: Unused credits roll over while you stay subscribed, with unlimited users, an MCP server, and a public API.

What each one does differently

Clay

$185/mo Free tier 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Spreadsheet orchestration if you want more providers and AI columns.

Stands out: 150+ provider waterfall plus Claygent on every row, with MCP and API.

Watch out: Not a sender. Paid plans start at $185/mo on Launch, CRM sync needs Growth from $495/mo, and credit burn adds up.

Best for

Sourcers building enriched spreadsheets
Teams chaining many data vendors
Desks that want Claygent research columns

FullEnrich

$55/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Cheaper waterfall email and mobile if you do not need list building.

Stands out: Work email, mobile, personal email and reverse lookup on one credit meter, with MCP, API and unlimited users on Pro.

Watch out: A mobile costs 10 credits against 1 for a work email. $55 is the 1,000-credit stop; price rises with volume. Enterprise SSO is an add-on.

Best for

GTM teams waterfalling emails and mobiles
Builders using the API, Zapier, Make, Clay or n8n
Agencies that want unlimited users on one plan

Bitscale

$349/mo API

Why it comes up: Credit tables if your input is a CSV and you want another enrich grid.

Stands out: A spreadsheet-style workspace with waterfalls, signals and AI agents, and credits spent only on valid provider results.

Watch out: The jump from Free to Growth at $349/mo is steep. Salesforce sync starts on Booster, and SSO and Snowflake pipelines are Enterprise.

Best for

GTM teams enriching CRM rows in a grid
RevOps building data waterfalls
HubSpot teams that need two-way sync

Apollo

$49/user/mo Free tier Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Native B2B graph if you do not want a multi-provider marketplace.

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.

Best for

Outbound recruiting and sales on one database
Teams that want free-tier access to start
Desks that need sequences next to the data
