Description

People Data Labs (PDL) lets you send a name, email or domain and get back a person or company profile. It also supports search over its dataset. In a marketing workflow it is used to enrich CRM records, fill gaps in lead forms and build target lists.

The free plan gives up to 100 credits a month for testing, but contact data (emails, phones, addresses) is obfuscated. Real contact fields need the Pro plan, which starts at $98/mo for 350 credits.

Good for engineers who need raw data they can score and route themselves. Not for anyone who wants a point-and-click prospecting tool.

Editor’s note What our review found

Editorial research, reviewed 23 Oct 2026. We read the vendor's pricing and docs pages. We did not run live calls. This listing is not an endorsement.

Cost: the free plan is for testing only and hides contact data. Pro starts at $98/mo (350 credits). Enterprise is custom and needs a contract. Credits are used per record returned.

Credentials and data: one secret API key. Keep it in an environment variable or secret manager, never in code or a plain-text file. The names, emails and domains you send leave your system. You receive personal data about named people. Check GDPR and similar rules: you need a lawful basis and a way to honour opt-outs before you contact anyone.

Good to know: the pricing page does not state rate limits; the docs say 100 requests a minute for free and 1,000 for paying customers. Premium fields are paid add-ons.
