“Forager's great for accuracy, the numbers we get from them are consistently the highest grade for accuracy and confidence. They've earned our trust when connect rates matter most.”
Find verified practitioners (radiologists, tax attorneys, actuaries) to write and grade data for AI labs instead of generic labelers. Direct mobile numbers for a person, from a LinkedIn URL or a Forager person ID, validated before they reach you. This page walks through 2 workflows with the exact steps.
Mobile numbers: 15 credits per mobile number found, and a mobile number lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits. That is $0.20 per mobile number on Starter month to month and $0.15 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices
Build people search without maintaining scrapers. Products like yours are judged on freshness and fields, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what mobile numbers returns for your users before you build on it.
Query people_feed or POST /person_role_search/ for credentialed titles and experience length. Filter by location and current employment for availability.
You send cohort size, expert profile spec and mandate profile. You get back acquirer list, contact fields, corp-dev contacts and credentials, from POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/, as JSON.
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.
No. A mobile number lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits, so you pay for mobile numbers we find. Search, enrichment and reverse lookups are the exception: they are charged per request.
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.

Forager ranked #1 of 10 in Clay's 2026 test of mobile data providers, by quality score: Clay's measure of how likely a dialled number reaches the right person. 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.
A contact database sells access to a list, often by seat or by export. A lookup API answers one person at a time inside your product or workflow: you send the LinkedIn URL or email you already hold and get back a mobile number in one JSON response. With Forager a mobile number lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits, so you pay for numbers, not for searches.
