Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Skeptic

Weighted verdict

Has read "98% accuracy" and "GDPR-compliant data" on every homepage in the category. Reads instead for the refresh cadence, the credit-back rule for a bounced email, what a mobile number costs in credits, and the source the privacy notice admits to.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Scored by The Skeptic

Coverage, accuracy & freshness

How this is scored

How much of the target market the database actually covers — judged on DACH and EU coverage as much as North American — and what the vendor documents about verification and refresh, because accuracy claims cannot be checked from outside.

0 — No stated coverage, no refresh cadence, no verification method; accuracy asserted as a percentage with nothing behind it.

3 — Headline record counts for the whole database, thin or unstated European coverage, and no description of how often records are re-verified.

5 — Coverage stated per country or region including DACH, email verification described, a stated refresh cadence, and firmographics beyond name and domain.

8 — Coverage broken down by country, industry and data type (email, direct dial, mobile), verification method and refresh cadence documented, company data drawn from official registers where available, and a bounce or credit-back guarantee with stated terms.

10 — The vendor is accountable for its data: per-country coverage and accuracy methodology published, every field carrying a last-verified date visible to the user, register-sourced company data, and credit-back terms that make inaccuracy the vendor's cost rather than the buyer's.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Everything here is a homepage counter — 220M companies, a database with +300M decision makers, 195 countries, 45 datapoints — with no per-country or DACH breakdown, no verification method and no refresh cadence; the only method statement on the pages is an own database built on IP addresses for profiling visitors. We found no public information on how often records are re-verified, or any guarantee that makes inaccurate contact data the vendor's cost rather than the buyer's. 1 2 3

Data sources & lawful basis

How this is scored

Where the personal data in the database comes from and on what legal basis it is processed — as evidenced on the vendor's own pages. Covers Art. 6(1)(f) legitimate interest, the Art. 14 notice to the people in the database, and whether they can find, object to and remove their record.

0 — No statement of where contact data comes from or on what legal basis; "GDPR-compliant" asserted without explanation, and no way for a listed person to object.

3 — Sources described in general terms ("public sources", "partners"), legitimate interest named without any balancing, and an opt-out request form as the only route for data subjects.

5 — Source categories named (registers, company websites, contributory networks, licensed partners), legitimate interest stated as the basis for EU records, a dedicated privacy notice for the people in the database, and a self-service opt-out or removal process.

8 — The above plus an Art. 14 notification practice described (people informed when added), contributory or browser-extension collection disclosed as such, a legitimate-interest assessment summarised publicly, and EU records handled differently from US records where the law differs.

10 — Provenance is traceable per record: the source and collection date available for each contact, Art. 14 notices sent and documented, the balancing test published, objections honoured across the whole dataset and suppressed permanently, and no data sourced by scraping behind logins or from contributors' address books without their contacts' knowledge.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The privacy notice names its basis — 'own legitimate interest' under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR — and admits only to an own IP-address database and 'publicly accessible corporate data', with no balancing test, no notification practice for the people added, and no word on where the +300M decision-maker records came from. Data subjects get the full rights catalogue, a one-month response window, and an objection that triggers deletion with no recollection — a real commitment, but request-based rather than self-service. 2 3

Visitor identification & intent signals

How this is scored

Identifying companies behind website visits and surfacing buying intent — scored on what is identified (company or person), how the tracking works, and whether the vendor states that its script needs consent under §25 TDDDG and how it behaves without it.

0 — No visitor identification or intent data, or person-level identification of EU visitors with no statement of legal basis.

3 — Reverse-IP company identification with a cookie-setting script, no statement about consent, and match rates claimed without method.

5 — Company-level identification with filters, visit history per company, a stated position that the script requires consent where it sets cookies, and a consent-mode or cookieless option.

8 — Company-level only for EU traffic by design, cookieless operation documented, integration with common consent management platforms, intent topics or page-level signals with the source of third-party intent data named, and alerts routed to owners.

10 — Identification that survives a DPO review: no personal data of visitors stored, the TDDDG and GDPR position published and specific, third-party intent data sourced from a named co-op or panel with its consent basis stated, and scoring on intent that the user can trace back to the underlying visits.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The core product is built the right way round: company profiles from an own IP database, suspected-consumer IPs removed without a profile being built, IP addresses not saved, and users see company details plus the pages visited in real time. What a DPO will ask for next is absent — no stated position that the tracking script requires consent, no consent-mode or cookieless option (recording via cookies or browser/device fingerprinting is offered as a plain choice), and the 'typically around 30% of your total traffic' match claim comes with no method. 1 2 3

Prospecting workflow & outreach rules

How this is scored

Search, list building and outreach — and whether the product helps the buyer stay within UWG §7 and the GDPR once the list exists, rather than leaving the legal risk entirely with the customer.

0 — A search box and an export button; nothing on the pages about what the buyer may lawfully do with the contacts.

3 — Filters on firmographics and job title, saved lists, and a terms clause making the customer solely responsible for compliance.

5 — Advanced filters including technographics and triggers, company-level lists and alerts, a global suppression or do-not-contact list, and guidance on cold outreach rules in the main EU markets.

8 — The above plus country-aware handling (for example flagging German contacts where cold calls and emails require consent), phone numbers checked against national do-not-call registers where they exist, and opt-outs from outreach synced back to the database.

10 — Compliance is part of the workflow: outreach channels restricted or flagged per country and contact type by default, suppression shared across the whole account and every export, the Art. 14 notice supported at first contact, and a documented record of how each contact entered the buyer's pipeline.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The outreach machinery is sold plainly — automated LinkedIn requests and email in the Autopilot add-on, persona filters on job title, multi-channel campaigns — while the only compliance text is a prohibition on uses that violate Dutch or other applicable laws and a duty on users to disclose the processing in their own privacy statements and processing register. We found no public information on a suppression or do-not-contact list, country-aware flagging of German or other contacts, or guidance on consent requirements for cold email and cold calls. 1 2 4

CRM sync, enrichment & export

How this is scored

Getting the data into the systems where sales works — CRM sync, enrichment of existing records, API — and what happens to exported data, and to the buyer's access to it, when the subscription ends.

0 — Manual CSV export only; no CRM integration and no API.

3 — A one-way push to one CRM, CSV export, and no statement on whether exported data may be kept after cancellation.

5 — Native sync with the major CRMs including field mapping and deduplication, enrichment of existing CRM records, and a documented API with stated limits.

8 — Bidirectional sync with scheduled re-enrichment, update and deletion propagated when a record changes or a person objects, webhook or API access with credit costs per call published, and data retention rights after cancellation stated plainly.

10 — The vendor treats the buyer's CRM as the system of record: objections and corrections propagated into synced records automatically, full change history per field, a versioned API with a deprecation policy, and exit terms that say exactly which data the customer may keep and for how long.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The pipe exists: 67 free CRM integrations including HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce and Marketo with real-time sync, bulk import for automatic tagging, an export right through the service interface at any time, and terms stating that stored information remains the customer's property. We found no public information on a documented API with rate limits, field mapping, deduplication, or how an objection to a contact propagates into already-synced records; Starter-plan users send insights to their CRM by hand. 2 4

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where a database of EU residents' personal data is held, who the contracting entity and controller are, and which subprocessors see it. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; weighted heavily here, because the product itself is personal data about people who never chose the vendor.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and EU residents' contact data processed outside the EU with no stated transfer basis.

3 — Non-EU contracting entity with an EU representative under Art. 27, or EU hosting offered while enrichment, support or AI processing stay non-EU.

5 — EU contracting entity and EU hosting as standard, but parts of the chain — data partners, enrichment sources, tracking infrastructure — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — EU contracting entity and controller, EU hosting on named infrastructure, subprocessor and data-partner list published, and any non-EU transfer named with its legal basis.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, controller, hosting, data partners and every subprocessor European, certification published, and a DPA covering both the customer's data and the database records the customer exports.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The contracting entity is verifiably European — Leadinfo B.V. in Capelle aan den IJssel with its Chamber of Commerce number, Dutch governing law, Dutch courts and the Dutch Personal Data Authority for complaints — but the trail ends there: hosting location unstated, no subprocessor list, and a privacy policy that shares personal data with parties outside the EEA 'if appropriate safeguards are in place' without naming a single recipient or instrument. Group-wide sharing with team.blue Group companies and Google Ads conversion tracking round out the disclosed chain; we found no public information on where the visitor database itself is hosted. 3 4

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost from public pages alone — including credits per email, phone number and mobile, credit expiry, seat pricing, visitor-identification tiers and the API — in a category where the unit of billing is often invented by the vendor.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A monthly headline exists, but what a credit buys, whether credits expire, or the cost of an additional seat is unstated — the invoice is unknowable.

5 — Tier prices public with credit allowances given, but at least one commonly needed piece (mobile numbers, extra seats, API access, CRM sync) is unpriced or behind a sales call.

8 — Every tier priced publicly with credits per data type, credit expiry and rollover, per-seat costs, overage rates, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: the annual invoice derivable for a given number of seats, exported contacts by data type, identified companies and API calls, with every credit cost and the refund rule for inaccurate data published.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The billing unit is unusually legible for this category — unique companies per month, repeat visits from the same company counted once, ISP traffic excluded, leads past the limit still collected but hidden — and the Starter tier is published as '€ 69' billed annual against '€ 99' monthly for the 0–50 tier, with seats per tier (3, 10, unlimited), per-seat add-ons ('€ 39/seat', '€ 59 /seat') and termination terms stated. We found no public information on the prices of the Pro and Scale tiers, the cost of extra seats beyond the bundle, or VAT treatment, so a growing team's annual invoice cannot be computed from the public pages. 2 4
