Cleanlist People Search finds B2B people by title, seniority, management level, department, job function, skills, languages, school, company, industry, headcount and location, seventeen keys in total. A search costs 0 credits on every plan including Free, and there is no limit on how many you run. You pay only for what you keep: 1 credit for a verified work email, 10 for a direct dial, 11 for both, and a miss costs nothing.
The query, the five keys and the count above are one live run, 2026-08-22. The eight people are illustrated personas, not the people the search returned.

Cut everyone your CRM already owns. Then get specific.
Connect Salesforce or HubSpot and the search reads both, so current customers, open opportunities and anything a teammate already owns drop out of the list before you spend a credit.

Eighteen searches. The keys that made them.
Each one ran on our own index, and under it are the keys it took, in the exact strings the search accepts. A large number proves a database. A small number proves a filter, and it is the reason you can get to sixty-six people instead of six hundred thousand.

Six live runs, 2026-08-22. Values are Title Case, exactly as the search takes them, and a value in the wrong case returns zero rather than an error.
No intent data
We do not buy or resell bid-stream intent, and there is no intent key on this surface.
No org charts
You can filter on a title, a department and a management level. You cannot ask who reports to whom.
No account technographics
Skills are what a person lists on their own profile. A company's stack is a different claim and we do not make it.
Free to find. One credit to reach.
Search until the list is right, then choose what you need on it. A verified work email is 1 credit no matter how many of the 25+ providers it took to find one. 98% verified work email and 85% direct dial on a stratified 500-lead benchmark.

Questions people ask before they run one.
How does Cleanlist's People Search work?
You describe the people you want in plain English, or set the filters yourself, and Cleanlist turns that into a structured search across seventeen keys covering title, seniority, management level, department, job function, skills, languages, school, company, industry, headcount and location. Running it costs 0 credits on every plan. Enrichment afterwards returns a verified work email at 98% and a direct dial at 85%, on a stratified 500-lead benchmark.
Does Cleanlist own a contact database?
No. Cleanlist does not own or sell a contact database. People Search queries licensed upstream providers live at query time, so there is no Cleanlist-owned record count to quote. Search itself costs 0 credits, and you pay only when a result is enriched. Every email address is verified through the enrichment waterfall before export.
What filters are available for People Search?
Seventeen keys: titles, seniority, management_levels, departments, job_functions, skills, languages, school_names, company_names, company_domains, company_industries, company_headcount, company_locations, location_country, location_state, location_city and locations. They combine freely, and the combination is what produces a list of sixty-six people rather than six hundred thousand. Company Search carries the firmographic side.
Can I export People Search results to my CRM?
Yes. Cleanlist syncs two ways with HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive, and one way out to Outreach, Salesloft and Lemlist. You can also export to CSV or JSON, or add results to a Cleanlist lead list for further enrichment. Cleanlist does not send email.
What is B2B people search?
B2B people search finds business decision-makers by professional attributes, not personal details. In Cleanlist you search by job title, seniority, department, skills, school, company, industry, headcount and location, then get each prospect's verified work email and direct-dial phone. Unlike consumer people-lookup sites, B2B people search is built for sales prospecting, TAM building and account-based outreach.
How is B2B people search different from a static contact database?
A static contact database sells a fixed list that decays as people change jobs. Cleanlist People Search runs live discovery, then verifies every work email and phone through a 25+ provider waterfall at export time, at 98% and 85% on a 500-lead benchmark. Cleanlist owns no stale database, so results reflect current roles, and an AI column can research any extra field you need on each contact.
What is the best people search tool for B2B sales?
For B2B sales, the best people search tool finds decision-makers by role and firmographic filters and returns contact data you can actually reach. Cleanlist does this with natural-language search at 0 credits, a 25+ provider waterfall delivering 98% verified work email and 85% direct dial on a 500-lead benchmark, AI columns to research any field, and CRM export. Every new workspace starts on Scale for 14 days: 250 credits, 3 seats, no card.
Is there a people search API?
Yes. The same search runs over the REST API v2 and over the MCP server, with the same seventeen keys and the same 0 credit cost. The public API is on Pro and up, MCP is on Starter and up, and neither is included in the 14-day Scale trial.
Gain full access for 14 days.
