How To Choose Email Finder Tool: 20+ Apps Guide

You’ve got a great product, the perfect pitch, and you know your buyer persona to the very last detail. Now all that’s left is for you to actually reach out and let your ideal customer know how you can make their life better. 

Except, it’s not that simple. To reach out, you need their contact details, but people are more cautious about giving out their email addresses today than ever before. To get in your ideal prospect’s inbox it’s likely you’ll have to do some research. 

The good news is you don’t have to do that research all by yourself. There are plenty of tools out there that’ll help you find the email addresses you need to make your next sales campaign a success. In fact, there are so many tools out there that it can be a little overwhelming trying to work out which one’s the right one for you. So, rather than having to download and try all the different email search tools out there, we decided to do the hard work for you. 

Here are 22 of the best email finders out there, along with all the features you need to know about:

Reply Email Finder

As part of Reply’s sales engagement platform, we’ve launched a Chrome extension to help you find email addresses as you look for prospects and then add them instantly to your next sales campaign. 

How it works

As you browse through LinkedIn, Gmail, or your CRM, the extension automatically collects all the contact information on the people you’ve looked up to. You can search for your contacts one by one as you visit the prospects’ profiles. 

The addresses are then verified in real time using our advanced algorithm, so you can be confident your emails won’t bounce. Finally, you can push contacts to a new or existing multichannel sequence in Reply or add them to a specific list with one click. In the end, you get a pipeline ready for outreach full of verified contacts.

The Email Finder is included in Reply, available to all new and existing customers for free with 200 email search credits per month.

• Free Credits/Requests: 200/month
• Pricing: Freemium (monthly plans start from $49)
• Finds by Name/Domain: No (by profile URL)
• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes/No
• Bulk Search on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: No
• Email Sending: Yes

Hunter.io

Another option to consider, Hunter has an email database with over 100 million addresses indexed. With their Domain Search feature, you can access a list of all the names and addresses for a specific company. For each result, it gives you a confidence level, confirms whether or not the email is verified, and lists all of the sources where it’s seen the address online. 

You have the choice between displaying personal name-based addresses (joe@reply.io) and/or role-based addresses (department@reply.io), depending on your requirements. Another nice touch is how it identifies the most common patterns for the chosen domain, based on the addresses they’ve confirmed. That way, even if Hunter doesn’t uncover the specific email you’re looking for, you still have a good chance of working it out from the pattern. 

Hunter has a free plan available, which gives you 50 requests/mo. If you’re looking for more requests and premium features, paid plans start at $49/mo.

• Free Credits/Requests: 50
• Pricing: Starts from $49 billed monthly or $408 if billed yearly
• Finds by Name/Domain: Yes
• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: No
• Bulk Search on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: No
• Email Sending: Yes

RocketReach

As databases go, RocketReach has data for more than 430 million professionals across 17 million companies. In addition to the standard professional business email addresses provided by most other solutions, you also get access to personal addresses along with their direct phone numbers. It then integrates with your CRM, so you have access to the information where you need it most. 

The search function lets you narrow down your targets with over 100 filters, then enriches those contacts with all the information you could need for your campaign, including job history.

You can try it out with five free credits. If you like what you see, the ‘Essentials’ plan works out at $59/mo with 125 credits each month, with more plans available for bigger demands.

• Free Credits/Requests: 5
• Pricing: Starts from $59 billed monthly or $468 if billed annually
• Finds by Name/Domain: Yes
• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes
• Bulk Search on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes

Snov.io

As well as an email finder, Snov.io is a complete cold outreach automation platform, allowing you to find, validate, and email prospects all in one place. When it comes to finding emails, you can search by domain to discover names together with email addresses and job positions, either individually or in bulk. 

You can then verify the addresses, filtering out any old, invalid results and reducing the chance of your emails bouncing. You can then send emails to the addresses you’ve discovered, with tracking to see when your emails are opened. 

Snovio has a free plan, which comes with 50 monthly credits which you can use for 100 drip campaign recipients. If you need more, paid plans start at $39/mo and allow for unlimited team members.

• Free Credits/Requests: 50
• Pricing: Starts from $39 billed monthly or $396 if billed annually
• Finds by Name/Domain: Yes
• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes
• Bulk Search on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes

Lusha

Lusha’s Chrome extension scans the social network profile pages you’re browsing for B2B contact information, revealing your prospect’s email address and phone numbers. You can then use those details to create new contacts in your CRM or to update existing entries with the latest information, ready to be verified. 

The Basic plan is free and gives you 5 credits/user/mo. All plans are priced on a per user per month basis, so you’ll need to buy a license for every user on your team. Paid plans start at $39/user/mo, but if you want some of the extra features, such as data export and CRM integration, you’ll need the Professional plan at $49/user/mo. For CRM enrichment, you’ll need the Enterprise plan at $69/user/mo.

• Free Credits/Requests: 5
• Pricing: Starts from $39 billed monthly or $348 billed yearly

• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes
• Bulk Search on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: No, single profiles only

Clearbit Connect

If you spend most of your time working from your Gmail inbox, then you might want to check out Clearbit Connect. The extension resides in your inbox, helping you literally as you compose your email with the contact information you need. You can search by company, revealing all the available contacts for that domain, then narrow the results further by searching for a name and/or job title. 

It’s also a great way to not only find a prospect’s email address but also to confirm they are the right prospect and that they match your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). Clearbit reveals your prospect’s location, job title, social profiles, and email address. You can also learn more about the company they work for, with details such as its size and funding. 

There’s a free community plan, with 100 free lookups per month per user. However, it’s important to note the plan operates on a ‘give-to-get’ basis and requires read-only access to your contacts, which might make some people uncomfortable. Essentially, your contacts’ details are added to the database in exchange for access to the database.

• Free Credits/Requests: 100
• Pricing: premium service is available at $6,000 a year for 1000 look-ups per month
• Finds by Name/Domain: Yes
• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: No

Skrapp

Skrapp uses a data-matching algorithm to find verified B2B email addresses, either as you browse Linkedin/Sales Navigator or company websites with the Chrome extension, or with a direct search using Skrapp’s Email Finder tool.

After searching publicly available web pages and creating pattern-based addresses, Skrapp then checks the address validity with the email servers and verifies it. You can also use the Bulk Email Finder tool to discover emails in your existing databases, which is ideal for completing your prospect list. 

The free plan offers a generous 150 credits each month. However, if you need more than one user and want access to the extra features, you’ll need a paid plan. This opens up the options to download your lists in CSV/XLSX format or remove duplicates from your lists. 

• Free Credits/Requests: 150
• Pricing: Starts from $49 billed monthly
• Finds by Name/Domain: Yes
• Works on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes
• Bulk Search on LinkedIn/Sales Navigator: Yes
• Email Sending: No

Adapt Prospector

Adapt is a sales acceleration platform, made up of three distinct products covering different parts of the process: Lead Builder, Prospector and Engage. The Lead Builder product is a database of over 100 million business contacts, allowing you to search for leads that match your criteria before exporting them – and all their contact information – to your CRM.  

When it comes to finding emails for specific prospects as you browse the web, you’ll want to check out Prospector. Using the Chrome extension, you can find contact details for your prospects on both LinkedIn/Sales Navigator and company websites. With just one click, you’ll be able to see email addresses, phone numbers, and company details.

To keep costs down, Leadleaper remembers all your searches and will not charge you for duplicates results with leads you’ve already uncovered.

With this tool, you can find contact details from social URLs, including Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. You can also use the Prospector tool to build a list of prospects based on key criteria, such as location, industry, job title, and more.

One nice touch that you’ll likely find useful is the ability to download all your Linkedin connections, along with their contact details. You can also extract the contact details you need directly from LinkedIn search results. 

The free plan comes with 100 free credits each month that you can use to find personal and business emails. However, going for the paid plans (which start at $39/mo) unlocks personal and business phone numbers, as well as integrations and the ability to export the results to a CSV or Excel file for later use.

You can find contact details by using the Chrome extension and visiting your prospect’s social network pages. Currently, they support searches on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, GitHub, MeetUp, and apparently even Google+ (although good luck finding a Google+ profile, as it was shut down for consumer accounts last year). The site promises that you’ll soon be able to search on more sites including Dribbble, Gmail, Xing, and Quora.

You can try it out with a free trial account, which will give you five email credits. From the paid plans, you can choose between an email-only plan, just phone numbers, or both. Whichever plan you pick will cost you $99/mo (billed monthly).

Rather than using scraped public data or pattern-based guesses, Findthat relies on reliable data sources for its results.

The free plan comes with 50 ‘Find’ credits and 100 ‘Verify’ credits (to verify any new or existing addresses) each month. You can choose between Find, Verify, or Bundled paid plans, all of which start at $29/mo.

Once you have your list of prospects, you can either manage them and create lists using the Kendo dashboard, or you can export them to your CRM. When using the verification engine, each address will have multiple validation rules applied to make sure it’s correct and won’t bounce.

Anymail Finder’s big appeal is that they only charge for server-validated emails. That means that if they’ve scraped an address off the web or matched an address pattern (based on 70% of the known emails for a company), but for any reason aren’t able to validate the email with the server, you get the address without paying a cent. 

They also offer a bulk email search of up to 50,000 names or job titles. In another twist, you can try before you buy; upload your list, then see how many email addresses are returned (along with a sample of the results using your free credits), before deciding if it’s worth paying for. 

You get 90 verified emails with your free trial. Paid plans start at $49 for 1,000 verified emails.

• Free Credits/Requests: 90
• Pricing: Starts from $49 billed monthly 
• Finds by Name/Domain: Yes
