Compare/Head to head

Datamagnet vs Superagnt

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

Starting price

Datamagnet

$39/mo

Developer API that pulls public professional profiles and company pages live at request time, so titles and headcounts are current rather than last quarter's, with email and phone included where they are publicly available. Plans start at $39/mo for 1,000 credits, a basic profile costs 1 credit, and a hosted MCP server lets Claude or ChatGPT call it directly. Best for teams that can wire an API, not recruiters who want a point and click search screen.

Where Datamagnet fits

  • Recruiting tech teams building sourcing or enrichment into their own product or ATS
  • Ops people running Clay or n8n workflows that need current titles, job changes and contact details
  • Recruiters who want to query profiles and ICP searches from inside Claude or ChatGPT
  • Agencies tracking past placements and hiring managers for job moves

Superagnt

$49/mo 7 day free trial

MCP toolkit that gives the AI agent you already run, such as Claude, ChatGPT, Grok or Cursor, live LinkedIn profile, people, company and job data, plus email finding and verification, a Postgres database, schedules and an inbox, all on one key. LinkedIn calls cost $0.009 each, plans start at $49/mo with $20 of data credits, and a 7 day trial needs no card. Best for recruiters who work through an AI assistant, not those who want a point and click search screen.

Where Superagnt fits

  • Recruiters who source in Claude, ChatGPT or Grok and want live LinkedIn profiles and people search there
  • Sourcers building candidate lists from job postings and the hiring teams behind them
  • Agencies running hiring signal prospecting to find companies with open roles
  • Ops people who want enriched lists saved to a database instead of spreadsheets

Where they pull apart

Datamagnet

Stands out: Data is fetched from the live profile at the moment you ask rather than from a stored snapshot, and the credit price per call is published endpoint by endpoint, down to 1 credit for a basic person or company profile. The MCP server is unusually complete for a data vendor: 17 tools, OAuth sign in so no key is pasted into the AI app, and every tool states its credit cost before it runs.

Watch out: This is an API, not an app: there is no search interface or sourcing workflow, so someone has to build on it or use it through Clay, n8n or an AI assistant. Rate limits are low on self serve plans (10 to 30 requests a minute), and the richer calls such as post engagement, activity and ICP search pages cost 10 credits each, so a search heavy month burns credits ten times faster than plain enrichment. Emails and phone numbers come back only where they are publicly available, and the vendor does not describe a deliverability check.

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiters who want a ready made search screen and sequencing
  • Teams that need a verified, deliverability checked email on every contact
  • High volume bulk jobs on a self serve plan capped at 30 requests a minute

Superagnt

Stands out: 52 LinkedIn tools on one endpoint cover full profiles with skills and recommendations, people search by title, company, school and location, job search, and the hiring team behind a posting, at a flat $0.009 a call. Results can land straight in the workspace database, and long lists run as background data jobs, so an agent can work through thousands of profiles without holding a chat open.

Watch out: There is no app to search in: everything happens through an AI agent or the REST API, so someone has to be comfortable working that way. The LinkedIn tools read data only, and none of them send connection requests or messages. Every plan cap is hard, including the included data credits, and AI tokens for agents deployed on the platform are billed separately. There is no free plan after the trial.

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiters who want a search screen and sequencing without an AI assistant
  • Teams that need automated LinkedIn connection requests and messages
  • Light users who need only a handful of lookups a month, since there is no free plan
