Where they pull apart

RocketReach

Stands out: Search by person rather than by profile URL, with a hosted MCP.

Watch out: Credit-based rather than unlimited, and phones sit on the higher tiers.

Not the right fit for

Agencies that want unlimited flat-fee dials
Desks that only want a cheap browser extension

SignalBase

Stands out: Funding, hiring, job-change, and M&A signals with the source URL attached, plus MCP for agents.

Watch out: Prices are in euros. There is no USD rate card. Custom starts above 3 seats or for white-label.

Not the right fit for

SDR teams buying emails and mobiles for cold email
Buyers who need a US-dollar rate card
