ContactOut review
A LinkedIn-focused contact database with lookup, enrichment, campaigns, and exports.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ContactOut is a B2B contact-data and enrichment platform for recruiters, sales teams, and marketers. Its searchable database covers professional profiles, company information, job data, work and personal email addresses, and mobile or direct-dial details. Teams can search people by job, company, location, seniority, and other filters, while company search adds firmographic, revenue, funding, industry, and technology criteria. The web portal, Chrome extension, and API support different prospecting and data workflows.
Its ecosystem is a central strength for teams that already work across sales and recruiting systems. ContactOut supports CRM and ATS exports to Salesforce, HubSpot, Lever, and Greenhouse, along with Zapier-connected systems. Additional integrations include Bullhorn, Outreach, and Salesloft. The Chrome extension supports LinkedIn and company-website prospecting, while bulk profile saving and list building help organize research. API access extends the product into people, company, and contact-data enrichment workflows rather than limiting it to manual lookup.
The pricing model combines a free plan with a monthly starting price of $29. Beyond contact discovery, the platform adds automated multi-stage email campaigns, AI-generated email personalization, enrichment, and API access. That breadth suits teams looking to connect sourcing, prospecting, data operations, and outreach in one product. It may be less suitable for buyers seeking only a narrow contact-search utility or a prospecting workflow centered outside LinkedIn and company websites. Overall, ContactOut is a strong fit for LinkedIn-led sales and recruiting teams that need contact details, structured search, exports, and follow-up capabilities.
