Lusha alternatives for finding B2B emails and phone numbers

Lusha reveals verified emails and phone numbers through a browser extension, an API and an MCP server, with 515M+ contacts, published prices and a free plan of 40 credits a month.

Reasons to look further include more phone numbers per dollar (a Lusha phone reveal costs 5 credits), European mobile data, a market where its contact counts are thin, or needing whole company lists rather than one-by-one lookups.

How we chose

Same job as Lusha

Each tool finds contact details for decision-makers, or builds the list those contacts belong to.

A clear reason to switch

Different regional strength, different pricing model, outreach included, or company lists instead of single lookups.

1.Kuration AI

Custom B2B database

Best for: Building the company list and the contacts together, in any country

Builds your own list of the companies that buy, distribute or import a physical product, in any country, from the places they actually show up (licence registers, trade-show exhibitor lists, dealer locators, maps, PDFs and directories), then finds the person who decides at each one.

Lusha starts from a person or company you already have. Kuration starts from the market: it builds the list of companies from registers, exhibitor lists, dealer locators and maps, then finds the decision-maker at each one.

What it does well
