Fill Your SDR Lists With Verified Contacts, Not Bounces
Cleanlist AI gives SDRs verified emails and phone numbers from 25+ providers, with the whole team spending from one credit wallet. A rep can build and enrich a list before the first call block.
A sales rep's morning in Cleanlist AI. Clu posts in Slack that 12 new people matched the ICP overnight and 9 have a verified phone number. The call list fills in, sorts by fit score, and the research agent writes talking points for the first call, to Naomi Osei.

The short answer
Build the list in People Search or upload a CSV, and Cleanlist AI runs every contact through 25+ providers in sequence. On our 500-lead benchmark that found 98% verified work emails and 85% phone numbers. Every seat brings its credits into one wallet the whole SDR team spends from: 750 a seat on Starter at $49 a month, 1,500 on Pro at $89.
SDRs: what gets in the way.
An SDR's list often takes a morning to build and still comes back with bounces.
- 01
List building eats the selling day
SDRs are measured on activity, and manual research (LinkedIn, then Google, then guessing the email format) can eat the morning before the first call.
- 02
One database means no fallback
Apollo, ZoomInfo and similar tools pull from one database, so a stale or missing record stays that way. When bounces climb, mailbox providers throttle the team's shared domain, good addresses included.
- 03
One rep runs dry while another sits on credits
When every rep has a separate credit allowance, the busiest SDR runs out mid-week while a teammate's allowance goes unused.
- 04
No phone numbers, no call block
Email-first tools return few verified phone numbers. SDRs running a call-and-email cadence end up calling switchboards and dead lines.
The Cleanlist AI waterfall looking for a phone number. For Ines Delacroix it tries providers in order and stops at attempt 5, the first deliverable result, which costs 10 credits. For Ben Trask all 7 attempts miss, and the charge is 0 credits.
VP of Sales · DecagonHow Cleanlist AI fits.
People Search builds the list and the waterfall fills in emails and phone numbers.
- 01
Build the list in People Search
Describe your ICP in plain language and People Search returns matching contacts, ready to enrich with verified emails and phone numbers. No boolean strings and no tab-hopping between LinkedIn and a spreadsheet.
- 02
25+ providers behind every contact
Each record runs through 25+ providers in sequence, so when one misses, the next one gets a try. Every email is then checked for syntax, domain and mailbox. On our 500-lead benchmark that found 98% verified work emails.
- 03
Bulk-enrich the cadence list
Upload a CSV of names and companies and download it with verified emails, phone numbers and company data. Push it to Outreach, Salesloft or Lemlist, or import it wherever your sequences run.
- 04
One wallet for the whole pod
Every seat's credits go into one wallet, and every rep spends from it. Starter is $49 a seat a month for 750 credits ($37 billed annually), and unused credits roll over.

How the alternatives compare.
Apollo, ZoomInfo and Seamless.ai all sell to SDR teams. Their data is where they differ.
| Option | Where it fits | Where it stops |
|---|---|---|
| Apollo Compare | A popular SDR tool with a prospecting database and sequences built in | One database with no fallback for a missing or stale record, and per-seat pricing that grows with every rep |
| ZoomInfo Compare | Deep database and intent signals for enterprise SDR teams | $15K+ yearly minimums and per-seat contracts sized for 20+ reps; more than a small SDR pod needs |
| Seamless.ai Compare | Real-time email search through a Chrome extension made for SDRs | Coverage and accuracy vary a lot from lookup to lookup, and the per-seat plans push upsells |

What are the best prospecting tools for SDRs?
It depends on your motion, but an SDR tool has to build lists fast, return emails that don't bounce and include phone numbers for the call block. Cleanlist AI does all three with People Search and a 25+ provider waterfall that found 98% verified work emails and 85% phone numbers on our 500-lead benchmark. Apollo and ZoomInfo each run on one database. Our roundup of the best sales prospecting tools compares the rest.
How does Cleanlist AI cut SDR bounce rates?
Every email comes out of a 25+ provider waterfall and is then checked for syntax, domain and mailbox before you see it. Catch-all and risky addresses are flagged, so they stay out of the sequence and off the domain your team shares.
How does Cleanlist AI's per-seat price compare for an SDR team?
Cleanlist AI is per seat too: $49 a seat on Starter and $89 on Pro, and every seat's credits (750 or 1,500) go into one wallet the team shares. Apollo is $49-119 a seat. Per verified email the rates are close: 6.53 cents on Starter against 5.2 on Apollo Basic, and 5.93 on Pro against 4.95 on Apollo Professional. Sequences come with every paid Cleanlist AI plan, a phone number costs 10 credits and a miss costs nothing, so price both against your real team and list.
Can SDRs build lists without leaving Cleanlist AI?
Yes. Describe your ICP in plain language in People Search, pull the matching contacts and enrich them with verified emails and phone numbers. You can also bulk-enrich a CSV exported from Sales Navigator or your CRM.
Does Cleanlist AI give SDRs phone numbers for cold calling?
Yes. The waterfall checks 25+ providers and found a phone number for 85% of leads on our 500-lead benchmark, at 10 credits each. That's enough to run a call-and-email cadence without a separate phone data subscription.
