Alternatives
Lusha alternatives if phone credits or renewals are the problem
If Lusha's 5 credit phone price is the issue, Invenitor charges the same for a phone as an email, and if you need an extension, Kaspr and RocketReach are the closest options.
By Invenitor team. Updated .
Why do people look for an alternative to Lusha?
- Phone cost. A phone reveal costs 5 credits against 1 for an email (Lusha pricing). On the 400 credit Starter plan that is 80 phones.
- Balance after cancelling. One Trustpilot reviewer wrote that credits "were reduced to just 40" after cancelling, on 2026-08-19 (Trustpilot). Spend your credits before you cancel.
- Auto-renewal. Another reviewer describes a charge of "over $400 for an auto-renewal subscription" on 2026-08-05. Check your renewal date.
What are the real options?
| Tool | Best for | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Invenitor | Describing a person in plain words and paying per result. 25 free credits to try, then packs with no subscription. | It does not send messages, and credits last 30 days. It has no sequences or CRM. |
| Kaspr | A browser extension with phone credits included per user. | Its pricing page shows different numbers in different tables. |
| Apollo | A larger outbound platform with a free plan. | Mobile numbers cost extra credits through the API. |
| RocketReach | Looking up a named person, with API endpoints for phones. | Its pricing page refused our check. Read it yourself. |
| Hunter | Work emails from a domain, if you do not need phones. | Its pricing page does not mention phone numbers. |
