Where they pull apart

Datagma

Stands out: You pay only for a verified match, catch-all emails are not billed, and unused credits roll over for 12 months.

Watch out: Regular includes 3,000 credits a month on one seat. Extra seats are $5/user/mo, and the interface is lighter than a full sales tool.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need sequencing in the same tool
  • Users who never touch an API or spreadsheet

Hunter

Stands out: The default finder API, with MCP and a widely used free Chrome extension.

Watch out: Built around work email, so it is not a mobile-number product.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need mobiles as the core product
  • Buyers who want a sequencer in the same login
