2026 pricing at a glance.
Entry price is the cheapest paid plan each vendor publishes. Read the included column beside it: a per-seat tool multiplies that price by every rep, while a flat-rate pool covers the whole team.

Cost per contact=plan price÷credits or lookups the plan includes
We take each plan’s monthly price and divide it by the volume it actually includes, which gives a like-for-like rate across tools that count in credits, lookups and exports. Then we flag the two multipliers the sticker price hides.
- OverageWhat you pay once the pool runs out: a top-up rate, or a forced upgrade to the next tier.
- Seat minimumsA per-user tool multiplies the entry price by headcount, so a $49/user plan is $245 a month across five reps.
- AccuracyA cheap credit that returns a bouncing address costs more than a dearer one that lands, so we weight for verified deliverability wherever a guide reports it.
A search costs nothing.
Cleanlist bills for results, not for seats and not for looking. One shared team wallet, one rate card, and a lookup that comes back empty is never charged.
- 0 creditsSearch, unlimited on every plan
- 1 creditA verified work email, however many of the 25+ providers it took
- 10 creditsA direct dial. Email and phone together is 11
- 0 creditsA miss. Validation is 0.5, AI qualification is 5
Starter is $79 a month for 1,500 credits, Pro $229 for 5,000, Scale $599 for 15,000, and annual billing takes 25% off. The Free plan stays at 30 credits a month. See Cleanlist pricing.
Every guide, in full.
Each one carries the whole tier ladder, the credit arithmetic, the renewal and contract terms, and what the entry plan quietly leaves out.
