FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do CRM add-ons use Forager work emails?

Fill contact records with email and mobile inside the CRM or browser extension reps already use. Verified work email addresses for a person at their current employer. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.

What do work emails cost for CRM add-ons?

Work emails: 5 credits per work email found, and a work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits. That is $0.07 per work email on Starter month to month and $0.05 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices

Why do CRM add-ons add work emails?

Fill CRM records with contacts that connect. Products like yours are judged on connect rate and cost per valid result, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what work emails returns for your users before you build on it.

How do I enrich HubSpot contacts with mobile numbers?

Extension sends linkedin_public_identifier or email to the platform's waterfall. Return work email and mobile from /work_emails/ and POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/.

What inputs does it take and what does it return?

You send persona titles, LinkedIn URL and account domain. You get back work_email, phone_number, role_title and person name, from POST /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/, as JSON.

Can our users see Forager data in our product?

Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager contacts to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.

Am I charged when no work email is found?

No. A work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits, so you pay for work emails we find. Search, enrichment and reverse lookups are the exception: they are charged per request.

Can CRM add-ons test work emails for free?

Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.

How can a CRM pre-populate a new customer's target accounts and contacts?

Enrich new accounts with POST /organization_search/ and fetch work_email only for contacts the agent will work. Keep the TAM fresh on each feed delivery and alert on new accounts that match.

How do I know the data is right?

The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.

How is a work email finder different from guessing the email pattern?

A pattern guess (first.last@company.com) gives you an address that may not exist or may belong to someone who left. A work email lookup returns the address for that person at their current employer, and with Forager a work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits.

Where can I use Forager work emails?

Native in Clay and Zapier, partner-built in Deepline and Cargo and called through the API from Make, n8n and your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
