Our review

Grade B

A clear workflow with a credit warning, but only useful to Apollo users.

Safety check: No scripts. Calls only Apollo's own connector and states the credit cost before enrichment.

Questions

Is the Apollo Prospect skill free?

The skill file is published openly by Apollo.io under the Apache-2.0 license. It needs: Apollo account and Apollo's connector (uses Apollo credits).

Does Apollo Prospect work in Gemini?

Yes. Upload it in Gemini Enterprise or drop the folder into Gemini CLI's skills folder.

Can I trust it with my data?

It has no scripts and sends nothing anywhere. Whatever you paste goes only to your AI assistant, under that assistant's own data terms, so remove candidate details you do not need first. It can still steer how the assistant answers, so read it before you use it.
