Why people look past NinjaPear

Every monthly and annual plan carries a 12-month commitment, and cancelling early still bills the remaining months. Subscription credits expire each cycle.

What we noted

  • All subscriptions lock you in for 12 months
  • Subscription credits expire each billing cycle
  • Work email lookups cost 0.5 credits on a miss

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need month-to-month with no lock-in
  • Recruiters who want a Chrome extension, not an API

Worth keeping in mind: Hosted MCP server plus REST endpoints, with a 3-day trial that includes 10 credits.

What each one does differently

People Data Labs

$98/mo Free tier API

Why it comes up: People API with a free tier if you cannot take a 12-month commitment.

Stands out: A free API sandbox, then self-serve Pro with contact data, premium fields and CSV enrichment on monthly or annual terms.

Watch out: Free hides email, phone and address. Annual saves 20% but is paid up front. Bulk data licenses are Enterprise and custom priced.

Best for

  • Developers enriching person records via API
  • Products that may later license a bulk feed
  • RevOps running CSV enrichment

CompanyEnrich

$49/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Company APIs with MCP and no 12-month commitment on the $49 Starter.

Stands out: Every paid plan includes the REST APIs and a hosted MCP server, billed on the same credits.

Watch out: Find Email costs 10 credits and Find Mobile 30, so contact lookups use Starter credits quickly. Credit rollover starts on Pro. Annual pricing is set by sales.

Best for

  • Builders embedding firmographic APIs in a product
  • GTM tools that need lookalikes and semantic company search
  • AI agents that call MCP instead of REST

Coresignal

$49/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Workforce dataset if you want bulk profiles more than live endpoint calls.

Stands out: A real data API plus MCP at $49 Mini: this is enrichment infrastructure, not a Chrome overlay.

Watch out: Mini is 2,500 credits. Starter is $199 and Pro $499. Treating $49 as production volume will fail in week two.

Best for

  • Builders wiring company/employee/jobs data into agents
  • Clay and n8n shops
  • Sourcing teams that want APIs, not a UI database

Crustdata

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: People and company data if hiring and funding signals are the job.

Stands out: Real-time hiring, funding and company-event signals via API, plus a hosted MCP server for AI agents.

Watch out: No public dollar prices; API access and flat-file datasets are arranged with sales. Built for data and product teams, not recruiters clicking through a UI.

Best for

  • Product and data teams embedding people and company APIs
  • GTM tools that need live hiring and funding signals
  • Analysts who want a monthly CSV or JSON dataset
