- Pages do not list phone numbers or a public API.
- Team discounts are by email request; the page shows no annual plan.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Lead Gibbon you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 44 of the 72 other lead and email finders grade higher. It costs $468 a year.

- You could make: Sales pipeline: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: Checking that an address exists without writing to it.
