## Ways to pay less

- **25% off with annual billing** (Annual discount): Annual plans are billed once a year ($351 Basic, $711 Professional, $1,071 Premium) with all of the year's credits granted upfront. Source: https://salesql.com/pricing

## Key features

- **LinkedIn extension:** The Chrome extension reveals emails and phone numbers from LinkedIn profiles and search results, including Sales Navigator, Recruiter and Recruiter Professional Services.
- **Contact database:** A Prospector searches a database the site puts at 185 million professional profiles by title, company, industry and location, then reveals or exports many contacts at once.
- **CSV enrichment:** Upload a spreadsheet of names, companies or LinkedIn URLs and get verified emails, phone numbers and company data back, with file size limits that depend on the plan.
- **Campaigns:** Email sequences go out from your own inbox with opens and clicks tracked per step. Each plan has a monthly recipient quota, and sending does not use credits.
- **API and MCP:** A REST API comes with Professional and Premium. An MCP server lets assistants such as Claude or Cursor search and enrich contacts, using plan credits.

## Good for

- Recruiters and sales reps who prospect on LinkedIn
- Small teams that want a low-cost plan with phone numbers included
- Anyone who wants to query contacts from an AI assistant over MCP

- Basic has no API access; the REST API starts on Professional.
- Daily API limits are marked as proposed and pending final validation on the pricing page.
- Extra seats cost $5 per seat per month ($45 per year on annual) and share the plan's credit pool.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace SalesQL you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 34 of the 49 other lead and email finders we grade. It costs $351 a year.

- You could make: Web clipper: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, HubSpot, Zoho and Mailchimp among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
