Looking for a Lusha Alternative?
Lusha gives you phone numbers and emails. Prospectory gives you a complete AI-powered prospecting engine — from identifying the right accounts to booking the meeting.
Why Companies Switch from Lusha
Lusha has built a popular, easy-to-use tool for quickly finding contact details — especially direct dials and email addresses. For individual reps who just need to look up a phone number, Lusha gets the job done. But as teams grow and outbound becomes a strategic motion, the limitations become clear: Lusha is a point-lookup tool, not a prospecting platform.
Teams outgrow Lusha when they realize that having a phone number is step one of a much longer process. After the lookup, reps still need to research the prospect, understand their company's priorities, craft a personalized message, choose the right channel, time the outreach, and follow up effectively. Prospectory automates that entire chain — from signal detection and AI research through multi-channel execution and response management — so reps can go from "I need to reach this person" to "I have a meeting booked" without switching between five different tools.
The other major factor is strategic versus tactical prospecting. Lusha helps you find contacts for accounts you already know about. Prospectory helps you discover which accounts to target in the first place, using Signal Intelligence and P2B scoring to surface companies that are actively in a buying window. It's the difference between fishing with a phone book and fishing with sonar.
Where Prospectory Stands Out
Complete Platform vs. Contact Lookup
Lusha is a contact lookup tool for finding emails and phone numbers. Prospectory is a full prospecting platform that handles signal detection, AI research, data enrichment, multi-channel outreach, and response management — replacing your entire outbound tool stack.
AI Research (128+ Data Points)
Lusha provides basic contact and company data. Prospectory's AI researches every prospect across 128+ data points including strategic initiatives, technology decisions, competitive landscape, and organizational changes — giving reps the context they need to have real conversations.
Account Discovery via Signal Intelligence
Lusha helps you find contacts at companies you already know. Prospectory's Signal Intelligence proactively discovers accounts showing buying signals — funding, hiring, tech migrations — so you never miss an opportunity in your target market.
Propensity to Buy Scoring
Lusha has no account prioritization capability. Prospectory's P2B scoring continuously ranks your target accounts by conversion likelihood based on real-time buying signals, so your team always focuses on the highest-value opportunities.
Multi-Channel Outreach Engine
Lusha does not include outreach capabilities — you need separate tools for email, LinkedIn, and phone. Prospectory orchestrates personalized campaigns across all four channels with AI-generated messaging tailored to each prospect and each touchpoint.
Scalable for Teams
Lusha's credit-based model works for individual lookups but becomes expensive at team scale. Prospectory is built for team-wide deployment with shared intelligence, team analytics, and pricing that rewards scale rather than penalizing it.
“Since switching to Prospectory, our conversion rates have improved dramatically. The AI doesn't just find contacts — it tells us exactly why each prospect is worth reaching out to and what to say. That context makes all the difference in our outbound campaigns.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Prospectory's contact data as accurate as Lusha's?
Prospectory maintains 95%+ email accuracy through real-time verification and multi-source validation, with phone numbers verified via carrier lookup. The key difference is that Prospectory doesn't just give you contact details — it gives you 128+ data points of context per prospect, so you know what to say when you reach out.
Does Prospectory have a browser extension like Lusha?
Prospectory offers a browser extension and native integrations that let you enrich prospects directly from LinkedIn, your CRM, or any website. The extension doesn't just pull contact data — it surfaces P2B scores, buying signals, and AI-generated talking points for every prospect.
How does Prospectory's pricing compare to Lusha's credit model?
Lusha charges per credit for individual lookups, which adds up quickly for teams running sustained outbound campaigns. Prospectory uses subscription-based pricing that includes data enrichment, AI research, multi-channel outreach, and response management — providing significantly more value per dollar for teams serious about outbound.
Can small teams use Prospectory, or is it only for enterprise?
Prospectory serves teams of all sizes with tiered plans for small, medium, and enterprise teams. Even small teams benefit from AI-powered research and outreach — in fact, Prospectory is particularly valuable for lean teams because the AI multiplies each rep's capacity by handling research, personalization, and response management automatically.
How quickly can I start seeing results after switching from Lusha?
Most teams run their first AI-powered campaign within 48 hours. Because Prospectory handles research, enrichment, and outreach in one platform, there's no complex multi-tool setup required. Our onboarding team guides you through importing your existing data and configuring your first signal-driven campaigns.
