Apify
Stands out: Hosted MCP at mcp.apify.com plus a Store of ready-made Actors, on a prepaid usage meter with overage billed on paid plans.
Watch out: Unused prepaid usage expires each cycle. Usage beyond Starter's $19 is billed on the next invoice, and residential proxy costs extra per GB.
Not the right fit for
Openmart
Stands out: Owner-level contacts for businesses the big B2B databases barely cover. Its database holds 50M+ local businesses in 500+ categories across 16 markets, each with 40+ fields including Google ratings, number of locations and hiring signals, so you can filter to dental practices with two or more locations in one city and pull each owner's phone.
Watch out: It is built for selling to local businesses, not for recruiting: there are no candidate profiles and no ATS or recruiting CRM sync, only Clay. Owner phones cost 8 credits each, so Starter's 5,000 credits cover roughly 625 phones a month, and team seats need Pro at $299/mo.
