SignalHire

Credit-based email and telephone discovery for recruiters, sales teams and business prospecting.

Research-based score
3.8
Tested
Features and capabilities4.1

Vendor provides person search, social extensions, successful-reveal contact credits, bulk CSV enrichment, ATS/CRM export and three published API families; actual contact depth depends on record coverage.

Usability and implementation3.5

G2 matched SignalHire feedback credits fast prospect discovery but documents uneven missing/outdated data, limited trial credits and support/billing complaints; no Toollers validation sample exists.

Pricing and value transparency3.9

Official current selector shows $69 month-to-month versus $57 monthly equivalent annually for Emails, Phones or bundled plans, but the 1,000 versus 435 monthly credit differences matter greatly.

Integrations, security and trust3.6

Official APIs and named ATS/CRM connectors are documented; personal contact-data processing, platform policies, privacy law and individual record accuracy remain unverified by Toollers.

About SignalHire

SignalHire combines a professional contact search database, email and phone lookup, social-profile browser extension, CRM/ATS exports and APIs for person or company enrichment. The current price selector distinguishes Emails, Phones and Emails & Phones subscriptions, each with individual usage-credit allocations. Free sign-up provides five initial contact credits, with ten free monthly credits advertised when the extension is installed. Its credit limits and whether an identified phone or email is actually useful vary by buyer segment; contact-data privacy and platform acceptable-use requirements should be checked before outreach.

Best for

Recruiters and B2B sales development teams that need quick email or mobile lookup and have a process for quality-checking, consent and suppression lists.

SignalHire pros and cons

Pros

  • Official Free signup allows five no-card contact lookups; the browser extension advertises ten free credits a month for low-volume research.
  • The vendor uses one successful reveal credit for all available contact details attached to a profile rather than charging for unsuccessful contact search.
  • The pricing matrix explicitly separates email-only, phone-only and combined contact use, making allowances easier to align with outreach work.
  • An extension runs on major browsers and eligible social sites and includes direct export paths for documented CRM and ATS platforms.
  • An API covers person identification, professional search and on-request company data, with team access available without separate seat charges.

Cons

  • −Reveal accuracy and availability are not guaranteed; G2 product-matched criticism includes missing, outdated or incorrect contact records.
  • −Phone/combined plans provide far fewer contact credits than email-only at the same listed monthly price.
  • −Monthly credit quotas reset, cancellation must occur before renewal and unused amounts may expire with the billing period.
  • −The platform processes contact data that could involve personal privacy, outreach consent and social-network terms; customers need their own lawful-use assessment.
  • −Visible Capterra regional ratings and a current US directory snapshot conflict, so the Capterra numeric average is intentionally withheld pending a direct confirmed current listing.
