Apollo vs Vente AI

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

Starting price

Apollo

$49/user/mo Free tier Free trial

All-in-one B2B database plus sequencer, with a free plan and paid plans from $49 per seat a month billed annually.

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

Vente AI

£149/mo

Vente AI sells recruiter job leads with hiring-manager contacts. Solo starts at £149/month for 100 lead credits and Lite is 250 leads at £199, billed in GBP on a 12-month minimum term.

Where Vente AI fits

  • UK and EU agency BD teams hunting direct-employer job leads
  • Desks already on Bullhorn, Loxo, or JobAdder that want clickless lead push
  • Recruiters who want hiring-manager contacts, not another CV inbox
  • Teams that can commit to a 12-month lead volume rather than month-to-month

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

Vente AI

Stands out: Leads include hiring-manager email, phone, and LinkedIn, plus a Hiring Stress Score, and can push clicklessly into Bullhorn, Loxo, JobAdder, Vincere, Sourcewhale, or Mercury.

Watch out: Plans run a minimum of 12 months and there is no free trial. Unused credits do not roll on monthly billing. Agency listings are stripped, so this is employer-side BD, not a candidate database.

Not the right fit for

  • US buyers who need a USD rate card and a cancel-anytime seat
  • Sourcing teams that want candidate profiles instead of job-lead BD

Pros and cons

Apollo

  • Free plan, then Basic at $49 per seat a month billed annually

Vente AI

  • Solo publishes 100 leads/month at £149/month, with Lite at £199 for 250
  • Hiring-manager email, phone, and LinkedIn plus stress scoring
  • Clickless CRM push to Bullhorn, Loxo, JobAdder, Vincere, Sourcewhale, Mercury
  • GBP only, with a 12-month minimum on each plan
  • Monthly unused credits do not roll
  • Not a candidate sourcing database
