Running workflows, cleaning data, extracting text, and using your own API keys are always free, on every plan. Credits power the enrichments that pull from paid data sources, like email finders, phone finders, and LinkedIn scraping. Free includes 500 credits per year. Paid plans include credits for your billing period, and you can buy more anytime.
Free with every plan
Free includes 500 credits per year. Paid-plan credit allowances depend on your billing period. You only spend credits on enrichments that pull from paid data sources.
One-time top-ups
For the occasional spike, buy a one-time top-up. Top-ups never expire, and you keep them even if you cancel.
Cleaning, deduplication, and any tool you run with your own API key never use credits.
What credits get you
A few of the most popular credit-based tools, and what they cost.
Company Domain Finder

AI Research Agent
Usage-based • Free and unlimited when using your own API key
Sales Navigator Scraper
10–20 credits per lead exported • Verified email & company intelligence
Waterfall Email Finder
25 credits per email found • Success-only guarantee (0 credits for misses)
LinkedIn Profile Scraper
25 credits per profile • Scrapes experience, job history & contact data
Credits are Datablist's internal currency. Enrichments that call a paid data source (email and phone finders, scrapers, LinkedIn, company data, translations) consume credits. Cleaning, dedup, and your own-API-key tools do not.
Plan credits refresh with your billing period and don’t roll over. Top-up credits never expire.
Yes. LLM tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and more) run on your own key for free on every plan. Apollo, PeopleDataLabs, Moz, and Bing run on your key from Starter up.
No. Data actions such as deduplication and cleaning are free. You pay data credits for enrichments, with no separate action credit on top.
Most finders (email, phone, personal email) are success-only, so you never pay for a miss. A few enrichments charge per attempt. See the full breakdown in the help center.
