Actions and credits

ColdIQ data runs first, at 0.31 credits per email found, and 0 on a ColdIQ Unlimited plan with emails. After it, the winner changes with the input. A name and a domain lands on Findymail or LeadMagic; a LinkedIn URL lands on Prospeo and returns the full profile, employment history, company firmographics and a masked mobile for the same price. Pass the LinkedIn URL whenever you have one. A verification hop is included when the provider does not verify its own result.

BounceBan leads because it is the only one that returns a verdict on catch-all and risky addresses, the ones every other verifier hands back as unknown. It is charged only on a conclusive verdict, so an inconclusive check costs nothing before the chain falls through.

ColdIQ data runs first, at 0.15 credits per person, and 0 on ColdIQ Unlimited. AI Ark runs when the search needs a filter ColdIQ data cannot apply, such as skills, keyword sources or lookalikes, at 0.31 credits per person. Apollo obfuscates last names and hides emails unless you pay a reveal, which is why it sits behind.

ColdIQ data runs first, at 0.03 credits per company, and 0 on ColdIQ Unlimited. AI Ark runs when the search needs a filter ColdIQ data cannot apply, such as products and services or lookalikes, at 0.06 credits per company. Put formal categories in the industry field and keep the keyword field for themes no taxonomy covers.

ColdIQ data runs first, at 0.03 credits per company found, and 0 on ColdIQ Unlimited. Name the fields you want. A bare domain with no field list routes to technology detection and returns a very large stack payload rather than firmographics. A domain reaches more providers than a LinkedIn company URL does. Set a per-record cap when you run this at scale.

ColdIQ data runs first, at 0.15 credits per person found, and 0 on ColdIQ Unlimited. On a reverse email lookup, read the confidence the response returns before trusting the match: a record whose email sits on a different domain than the one you queried is a wrong person, not a weak match. The email finder often returns the same profile for less.

A spread of 77 to 1 across the pool. ColdIQ data runs first, at 1.54 credits per number found, and 0 on ColdIQ Unlimited Enterprise. A thousand lookups cost 20 dollars at one end of the pool and 1,580 at the other. Put a per-record cap on every bulk run: a provider that holds the number but costs more than the cap is skipped, and you are charged nothing rather than surprised.

The filter picks the source rather than a fallback order. ATS names and company domains reach 175,000 company career sites across 54 platforms; LinkedIn-only filters like seniority or employee count reach LinkedIn.

One library per network, because they hold different inventory. Adyntel covers all four in a single call when you do not know where the company advertises.

Four different answers rather than four attempts at the same one. DataForSEO reads what the site exposes, PredictLeads gives dated detections so you see a change rather than a state, BuiltWith the deep stack, TheirStack the company-level record.
