The problem

Prospecting databases / lead finders tools are judged on connect rate and cost per valid result

A contact that reaches the wrong person, or nobody, is a failure your users see in your product, not ours.

  1. Does it connect? A number that is dead or disconnected wastes the call.
  2. Does the name match? A live number for someone else is worse than none.
  3. Is it the profile you asked about? Not a namesake, not a former owner of the number.

FAQ

Questions lead databases teams ask

What data does Forager provide for lead databases?

Forager is a B2B data API and data feed for people, companies and jobs, covering 800M+ people and 65M+ companies. Lead databases use people search, mobile numbers, work emails and person enrichment most, by API or data feed. Products like yours are judged on connect rate and cost per valid result, so every result is about reaching the right person.

How do I find small business owner cell phone numbers?

Resolve the owner from the business record (name + domain) with POST /person_role_search/ (role_title owner/founder, organization_domains). Get the owner's mobile from POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/ (Silver for maximum reach).

How much does Forager cost for lead databases?

Every product draws on one credit balance. People search: people search 1 credit per request and people search: role details 1 credit per request, charged whether or not data comes back. Mobile numbers: 15 credits per mobile number found, and a mobile number lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits. Growth's 8,250 monthly credits cover 550 mobiles, 1,650 emails or 8,250 search requests, or a mix. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices

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.

What is signal-based selling and which signals work best?

Reach new leaders in their first 90 days and teams that are growing while budgets are being set. Reps reach champions in new roles and growing teams while decisions are open.

Can lead databases test people search 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.

Which Forager products do lead databases use most?

People search (5 recipes), mobile numbers (3 recipes), work emails (3 recipes) and person enrichment (2 recipes), counted across the recipes on this page. Every product draws on one credit balance, so you can mix them on one plan.

How do I know the data is right?

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.

Which tools does Forager work with for lead databases?

Native in Clay and Zapier, partner-built in Deepline and Cargo, delivered as a data share to Snowflake, Databricks and Amazon S3 and called through the API from your own code, Make, n8n and Google BigQuery. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.

How do I search contacts by company domain and job title?

Call POST /person_role_search/ with organization_domains, role_title boolean and person_locations. Check volume first with /person_role_search/totals/.

Do I need a subscription?

Not to test: a free account comes with $5 in credits. To keep using Forager, choose a monthly or yearly plan. Monthly plans cancel anytime and unused credits roll over; yearly plans grant all credits upfront and cost 10% less. Larger volumes are agreed with our team.

Should lead databases call the API or license a data feed?

Call the API when your product needs one person or company at a time, when a user opens a record or an agent asks. License a feed when you need whole layers (people, companies or job postings) in your own warehouse or index. Contact fields (mobiles and emails) stay in the API, paid per result found.
