Bottom line

Waterfall contact enrichment API. Starter is $15/mo; Pro is $49/mo.

Stands out for: A $15 waterfall across 10-plus sources: the anti-ZoomInfo for operators who care about hit-rate, not a branded graph.

Watch out for: Starter is a toe-dip. Real volume is Pro $49 or Enterprise from $799. Free 50 credits are not a timed trial.

Overview

BetterContact aggregates enrichment providers into a waterfall for emails and mobiles. You pay for the hit, not for 15 vendor seats. HubSpot and Make are named on the integrations page; Clay and Apollo appear in pricing comparisons.

Pricing: Starter $15/mo; Pro $49/mo; Enterprise from $799/mo, plus 50 free credits. That grant is not a 14-day trial.
