Head to head

Apollo vs LeadFuze

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Apollo

$49/mo Free tier Free trial

All-in-one B2B database plus sequencer, with a free tier and paid plans from around $49/mo.

Where Apollo fits

  • Outbound recruiting and sales on one database
  • Teams that want free-tier access to start
  • Desks that need sequences next to the data
  • Consumers of the Apollo graph via MCP or API

LeadFuze

$1500/mo

LeadFuze now sells a Full Data License rather than classic self-serve seats. Vendor checkout lists $1,500 to $2,000 per month depending on term, with monthly file updates.

Where LeadFuze fits

  • RevOps teams that want a full-file B2B dataset
  • Data buyers replacing a $10k-$20k/mo enrichment vendor
  • Companies that will load monthly updates into their own warehouse
  • Marketing teams using the visitor-ID pixel on top of the file

Where they pull apart

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

LeadFuze

Stands out: The license is a bulk professional dataset: hundreds of millions of profiles, personal and business emails, 150 million-plus mobiles, and a visitor-ID pixel, refreshed monthly.

Watch out: Direct software access for the old list-builder UI has been shut down in favor of the data license. There is no free plan. Term length changes the monthly number between $1,500 and $2,000.

Not the right fit for

  • SDRs who wanted the old $147 list-builder login
  • Teams that need a 25-lead self-serve trial of a web app

Pros and cons

Apollo

  • Free tier, then a roughly $49/mo paid start
  • Database plus sequences in one login
  • MCP and Chrome extension
  • Data quality varies by segment
  • Less depth on intent than enterprise vendors
  • Credit model needs watching

LeadFuze

  • Published floor of $1,500/month on the vendor license page
  • Monthly refreshes on hundreds of millions of profiles
  • Capterra 4.6 from 97 reviews
  • Old self-serve list-builder access is shut down
  • $1,500/month is steep versus a $49 finder
  • No free plan on the license
