The short answer

  • Agency Leads : Daily verified staffing-agency job leads from $486/mo. Mantiks is employer hiring intent on a lower-priced seat. From $486/mo
  • Apollo : USD contact database plus sequencer with a free tier. Not a job-posting intent firehose. From $49/user/mo
  • Clay : Row-level enrichment. You bring the companies. Mantiks starts from the job post. From $185/mo
  • ZoomInfo : Enterprise B2B data, sales-quoted. Broader GTM, weaker on staffing-specific hiring alerts. From Sales-quoted

Why people look past Mantiks

Displayed prices assume a 12-month commitment (about 20% off). A 3-month Discovery term is available, then you move to annual. Extra Starter seats are $37/mo.

What we noted

  • Prices exclude tax and the headline rate needs a 12-month commitment
  • A 12-month commitment is how the $108 price is framed
  • Credits and seats both meter. Quiet months still bill the seat

Not the right fit for

  • Buyers who need a cancel-anytime month rather than a 12-month commitment
  • Sourcers hunting passive GitHub talent rather than companies that just posted

Worth keeping in mind: Built for job-posting intelligence, not LinkedIn passive sourcing. Agency listings can be excluded so you pitch the employer. Growth ($207/mo) adds bulk exports, recurring reports, CRM/ATS workflows, API, and webhooks.

What each one does differently

Agency Leads

$486/mo

Why it comes up: Daily verified staffing-agency job leads from $486/mo. Mantiks is employer hiring intent on a lower-priced seat.

Stands out: The ICP is staffing-agency supply (who is hiring contractors through agencies), the opposite of Vente AI's employer hiring-manager contacts.

Watch out: $486/mo is a lead subscription, not an ATS. Unused-lead and territory rules sit on the vendor page. This will not source candidates.

Best for

  • Staffing BD teams that sell into other agencies or MSP supply chains
  • Owners comparing a $486/mo verified feed with Recruit Signals at €99/mo
  • Desks already in Bullhorn or Vincere that need daily job-lead fuel

Apollo

$49/user/mo Free tier Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: USD contact database plus sequencer with a free tier. Not a job-posting intent firehose.

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.

Best for

  • Outbound recruiting and sales on one database
  • Teams that want free-tier access to start
  • Desks that need sequences next to the data

Clay

$185/mo Free tier 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Row-level enrichment. You bring the companies. Mantiks starts from the job post.

Stands out: 150+ provider waterfall plus Claygent on every row, with MCP and API.

Watch out: Not a sender. Paid plans start at $185/mo on Launch, CRM sync needs Growth from $495/mo, and credit burn adds up.

Best for

  • Sourcers building enriched spreadsheets
  • Teams chaining many data vendors
  • Desks that want Claygent research columns

ZoomInfo

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: Enterprise B2B data, sales-quoted. Broader GTM, weaker on staffing-specific hiring alerts.

Stands out: The buying-committee graph and intent data, not just email lookup.

Watch out: Recruiter-only desks should price Wiza, ContactOut or Tomba first. This is an enterprise contract.

Best for

  • Talent teams where sales already pays for ZoomInfo
  • Desks that need reports-to lines and org charts
  • Account-based recruiting with intent data
