What Is Prospeo and How Does It Fit in a GTM Stack?

Prospeo is not a traditional lead database. It is an extraction and verification engine that enriches leads you have already identified, primarily through LinkedIn Sales Navigator and allows you to find and verify email addresses and phone numbers of prospects, within the company, based on full name and company domain or personal LinkedIn URL.

The most important thing is that Prospeo optimizes for data freshness and bounce prevention validating catch-all emails. From our tests on email finding and validation Prospeo had lower % of emails found than other tools but after checking deliverability of these emails Prospeo had highest % of emails valid meaning that they are not pushing you trash but actually high quality data.

Who Should Use Prospeo?

Prospeo is built for teams that rely on outbound via email, cold calling and linkedin and care deeply about sender reputation.

Typical users include:

• RevOps and Growth teams managing data quality
• SDR leaders running Sales Navigator-based prospecting
• Founders executing targeted outbound themselves

It is less suitable for teams looking to browse a massive internal lead database or generate leads without predefined targeting. Think of Prospeo as a data extractor and email finder.

What are Prospeo’s key features?

How Does the Sales Navigator Export Engine Work?

Prospeo’s core feature is direct export from LinkedIn Sales Navigator. Users can extract filtered lead lists without manual copying.

Key fact: Prospeo supports exports of up to 2,500 contacts per list and can extract up to 45 data points per record = person + company.

In live usage, verified email retrieval rates typically range from 40% to 70%, depending on industry and role seniority.

How Does Prospeo Handle Email Verification and Catch-All Domains?

Prospeo uses a conservative verification model designed to flag risky and catch-all emails aggressively.

The most important thing is that Prospeo prefers false negatives over false positives. This means fewer bounces, but potentially fewer total usable emails. Which is a better approach in our opinion in comparison to other data providers.

What Can You Do with the Prospeo API?

Prospeo offers a stable API for email finding, mobile number retrieval, and email verification. It can be easily connected to data orchestrators such as Clay.

Responses are lightweight JSON objects containing validity status and domain metadata, making Prospeo suitable for real-time CRM enrichment.

Mobile Number Enrichment: When Does It Make Sense?

Prospeo can retrieve mobile numbers directly from LinkedIn profiles. This feature is significantly (10x) more expensive than email enrichment but still costs the same amount as other mobile number providers.

One mobile number costs 10 credits, compared to 1 credit for a verified email.

This makes mobile enrichment viable mainly for high-value ABM or enterprise accounts.

How much does Prospeo cost?

Prospeo uses a credit-based subscription model with plans ranging from approximately $49 to $369 per month.

You are not charged for duplicates within the same billing cycle, and credits are only spent on verified results.

Key limitation: Credits do not roll over month to month, requiring careful usage planning.
