Finder plus verifier on one credit meter, with MCP and a real free allowance. Paid plans start at $37/mo billed yearly, or $49 monthly.

  • Desks using MCP or the REST API
  • Teams that need catch-all resolution
  • Buyers who want a no-card free allowance

ZoomInfo

Sales-quoted

Enterprise B2B contact graph with direct dials, org charts, technographics and intent. Quote-based, and overkill if you only need emails.

  • Account-based recruiting with intent data
  • Enterprise processes that already include the graph

Where they pull apart

Tomba

Stands out: Finder, verifier, and catch-all on one credit meter, plus hosted MCP.

Watch out: Phone lookups cost five credits each, so phone-heavy work burns the meter fast.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that only want LinkedIn mobiles
  • High-volume phone lookup (phones cost more credits)

ZoomInfo

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.

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiter-only buyers signing a new enterprise contract
  • Teams that only need email and mobile lookup

Pros and cons

Tomba

  • Finder and verifier share one credit meter
  • 25 free searches each month, no card
  • Hosted MCP plus REST and a Chrome extension
  • Phone lookups cost five credits each
  • Catch-all lift figures come from the vendor
  • No sequencer, so outreach needs a second tool

ZoomInfo

  • Org charts and intent, not only emails
  • MCP available
  • Strong value when sales already funds the seat
  • No public price
  • Enterprise contract and sales cycle
  • Overkill as a recruiter-only finder
