How we rank

What the ranking is built on

Every provider here has a company search endpoint in the looot catalog, billed per company returned.
We rank by the price per company of that endpoint, read live from the catalog. A cheaper company ranks higher.
Search endpoints billed per call are left out, because a call can return one company or a hundred, so the units do not compare.
Search endpoints with no looot price are left out, because a zero price says nothing about the data.
The catalog does not publish a measured success rate for these endpoints, so this page does not rank by one and quotes none.
Providers outside the looot catalog are not ranked.

Build a company list, step by step

Company search API or company data by domain

A company search API answers "which companies match". You send filters and get a list back. Company enrichment answers "tell me about this company". You send one domain and get one record.

If you already have the domains, the B2B data API list ranks company enrichment by price per call.

Every company data job in one place

A B2B data API in our other list enriches one company you already know, from its domain. A company database API finds companies you do not know yet, from filters. Most lead lists use search first, then enrichment.

ZoomInfo is not in the looot catalog, so this page does not rank it. The providers above return company lists from filters, and your agent can call any of them with one key.

Yes. TheirStack filters by technology stack and hiring signals, and Lusha takes technologies as a filter. For the tech stack of companies you already have, use a technographics endpoint instead.
