When to use what
Use Lusha when…
- You need to reveal a specific contact you've already found on LinkedIn
- Your market is well-covered by standard databases (US/EU tech companies)
- You want intent signals + job-change alerts on accounts you already track
- Your team is small and a per-seat Chrome extension is the right shape
Use Kuration when…
- You don't yet have the list — you have a brief, and you need the prospects
- Your targets aren't in standard contact databases (events, offline markets, emerging regions)
- You need data from live sources (event pages, PDFs, Google Maps, registries)
- You work in markets where Lusha has weak coverage (MENA, SEA, Africa, LATAM)
- You need multi-language extraction (Chinese, Arabic, French, etc.)
Key differences
Lookup vs discovery
Lusha helps you find contact info for people you already know about. Kuration discovers prospects you didn't know existed — from event pages, Maps, PDFs, and registries.
Shared vs proprietary
Lusha sells the same profile to every seat using the extension. Kuration builds databases unique to your brief — your competitors literally cannot reveal the same list.
Lookup vs a list
Lusha starts from a person you have already found. Kuration starts from a source — an event, a registry, a directory — and returns the companies in it.
Coverage depth
Lusha covers well-indexed professionals globally. Kuration covers sources that aren't indexed at all: trade-show exhibitor pages, PDF directories, government registries, offline businesses.
“We 2×'d our qualified calls in 60 days. The event data alone was worth it.”
