UpLead

UpLead is a U.S.-based B2B lead intelligence and prospecting platform founded in 2017. It gives sales and marketing teams access to a database of 155M+ contacts and 16M+ companies, searchable via 50+ filters, with real-time email verification at the point of export, mobile direct dials, buyer intent data, and CRM data enrichment.

UpLead holds a 95%+ data accuracy guarantee and refunds credits for contacts that bounce — making it one of the most accountability-driven B2B data providers in its price range.

• Real-Time Email Verification — Every email is verified at the exact moment you export or unlock a contact using UpLead's proprietary verification engine; credits are refunded for any address that bounces, backed by a 95%+ accuracy guarantee.

• 155M+ Contact Database with 50+ Filters — Search by job title, management level, industry, location, company revenue, employee count, company technologies, and more to build laser-targeted prospecting lists in minutes.

• Mobile Direct Dials — Access non-HQ mobile and direct-dial phone numbers that connect you straight to the decision-maker — not a receptionist or general company line.

• Buyer Intent Data — Identify companies actively researching solutions in your product category right now; surface in-market buyers before competitors do (Professional plan).

• Technographics (16,000+ Technologies) — Filter prospects by the exact software stack they use, from CRMs to marketing tools to cloud infrastructure, and use technology signals as a conversation opener.

• Data Enrichment — Automatically update existing CRM records with current contact and company data on a rolling basis, preventing your pipeline from going stale.

• Chrome Extension — Capture verified contact and company data while you browse LinkedIn or any business website without leaving the page.

• CRM & Outreach Integrations — Push leads directly to Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Outreach, SalesLoft, Lemlist, Woodpecker, Mailshake, and 1,500+ apps via Zapier.

UpLead is built for sales and marketing professionals who need clean, verified B2B contact data they can trust before plugging it into their outreach tools.

• SDRs and outbound sales reps — Real-time verification means near-zero bounce rates on cold email campaigns; one G2 reviewer reports an 80% reply rate using UpLead contacts because every address is genuinely active.

• Marketing teams running ABM campaigns — Intent data and technographic filters let marketers identify exactly which companies are in an active buying cycle and what tools they use, enabling hyper-targeted account-based campaigns.

• Founders and consultants on lean budgets — The Essentials plan at $99/mo provides 170 verified contacts per month with full CRM integration and mobile direct dials — enough for a consistent personal outbound pipeline without enterprise pricing.

• Revenue operations and CRM admins — The Data Enrichment feature automatically refreshes existing CRM records in real time, removing the manual work of auditing and cleaning contact databases.

• Enterprise sales teams and developers — The Professional plan's full API access, custom credit quotas, and competitor intelligence layer support programmatic lead enrichment, custom CRM integrations, and high-scale prospecting across large sales organizations.

UpLead's clearest differentiator is its accountability-first data model — built around verification, not just volume.

• Credit refund guarantee for bad data — UpLead is one of the only B2B database providers in its price tier that actively refunds credits when an email bounces. This aligns UpLead's incentives with yours: they only keep your credit when the contact actually works.

• Real-time verification at export, not batch — Most competitors verify emails in bulk during overnight database refreshes. UpLead re-verifies each address at the precise moment you click export, using live SMTP and DNS checks. A contact that was valid six months ago is re-checked right now before you download it.

• CTO-invented email verification engine — UpLead's founding team includes the inventor of email verification-as-a-service, meaning the core technology is proprietary and field-tested — not a licensed third-party tool bolted on after the fact.

• Friendly Credits policy — UpLead's “Friendly Credits” program refunds you automatically for poor data records below their quality threshold, without requiring you to manually file a support ticket or dispute a charge — an unusual level of proactive data accountability in the B2B database space.

UpLead integrates natively with the most widely used CRMs, sales engagement platforms, and outreach tools in the B2B stack.

• CRM Platforms — Direct native integration with Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho CRM, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Copper, Nimble, Close, and Insightly; push enriched contacts from search results to any connected CRM in one click.

• Sales Engagement Tools — Native connections to Outreach, SalesLoft, Reply.io, Woodpecker, Mailshake, and Lemlist allow you to export verified leads directly into active email sequences or cadences without manual copy-paste.

• Zapier — Zapier integration connects UpLead to 1,500+ additional apps, enabling automated workflows for lead routing, Slack notifications, Google Sheets logging, and CRM record creation when contacts are exported.

• UpLead Chrome Extension — Available on all paid plans; captures verified contact and company data — including email, phone number, job title, and technographics — directly from LinkedIn profiles and business websites without leaving your browser.

• UpLead API — Partial API access on Essentials and Plus for real-time enrichment and search queries; full API access on Professional for programmatic prospecting, custom CRM pipelines, and white-label integrations built on UpLead's data infrastructure.

UpLead is the most accountability-focused B2B database tool in the sub-$200/mo market — its 95% accuracy guarantee, credit refund policy, and real-time export verification set a data quality standard that ZoomInfo charges 5× more to match. It's the right fit for SDRs, marketers, and founders who need clean, export-ready contact data they can plug directly into their outreach tools without cleaning first.

The credit-based model limits high-volume teams on lower tiers, and you'll still need a separate email sequencing tool to run campaigns — but as a pure data provider, UpLead consistently earns its #1 G2 ranking for lead intelligence ROI.
