What each one does differently

Kendo

$14/mo Free tier

Why it comes up: Cheaper LinkedIn-to-email browser finder.

Stands out: Cheap and deliberately simple: credit packs and a browser button, nothing else.

Watch out: Single-source rather than a waterfall, so coverage is thinner than paid platforms.

Best for

  • Individual recruiters working LinkedIn
  • Desks that want a cheap browser finder
  • Buyers paying with credits rather than a seat

4.7 on Capterra from 148 reviews

Kaspr

€49/mo Free tier API

Why it comes up: European browser enrichment with a free plan.

Stands out: A free plan plus a European data posture, which most US finders cannot offer.

Watch out: No MCP, and coverage is strongest in Europe rather than the US.

Best for

  • European recruiters working LinkedIn
  • Desks that want a free plan before committing
  • Teams on HubSpot or Salesforce

RocketReach

$33/mo Free tier MCP API

Why it comes up: People search plus phones if you are not starting from LinkedIn.

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.

Best for

  • Recruiters who search for people, not just LinkedIn profiles
  • Desks that need phone numbers as well as email
  • Teams connecting Bullhorn or Salesforce

4.1 on Capterra from 140 reviews

Findymail

$99/mo MCP API

Why it comes up: Catch-all-aware finder with a hosted MCP.

Stands out: Catch-all handling is the product, which protects sending reputation.

Watch out: Higher entry price than plain finders, and email only.

Best for

  • Outbound desks damaged by catch-all addresses
  • Clay users who need a named finder
  • Teams sending through Instantly, Smartlead or Lemlist
