Overview
Lusha is a B2B data and sales intelligence company whose platform helps sales, marketing, recruiting and RevOps teams, as well as AI agents, find contacts, enrich records and track buying signals. Its database covers more than 525 million business contacts and over 29 million company profiles across North America, EMEA, APAC and LATAM, with email verification of 95 to 98 percent by region and direct dial accuracy of 86 percent or more. Contact data of this kind loses value as people change jobs, so providers in the category compete on how often records are refreshed and checked.
Beyond contact search, Lusha processes 7 million new signals each week, such as funding rounds, leadership changes and hiring surges, and matches anonymous website visitors to verified company and contact records. A second layer, Lusha Deep Intel, uses a customer's ICP, CRM and pipeline data to prioritise accounts, identify buying groups and suggest contacts, drawing on predictive models and lookalike scoring. The product is available through Lusha Workspace, a Chrome extension, an API and the Lusha MCP, with connections to CRMs such as Salesforce and HubSpot and to assistants including Claude and ChatGPT. MCP access lets AI assistants query the same records a human rep sees, reflecting a broader shift toward agent-driven prospecting.
Founded in 2016, Lusha began as a tool for B2B salespeople to find contact data, and its name comes from the nickname of a founder's daughter. It reports use by more than 280,000 revenue teams, including Google, Zendesk and Yotpo, and offers a free tier with paid plans for higher volume. Because it handles personal data, Lusha states GDPR and CCPA compliance and independent audits under ISO 27701, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II, credentials that buyers in regulated markets such as Europe often require.

- What is data enrichment for account-based marketing?
Data enrichment for account-based marketing fills in what you need to know about each target account: who the company is, whether now is a good time, and which people to reach. In practice, that’s three layers of data on every account in your list: firmographics, buying signals, and the contacts in the buying group.
- Which tools flag job changes and role shifts?
Tools that flag job changes catch two different events. A company change is when someone moves to a new employer.
- What is real-time lead enrichment for outbound?
Real-time lead enrichment updates a lead’s contact details, role, and buying signals at the moment your team acts on it, such as when a rep adds the lead to a sequence or opens the record before a call. Batch enrichment refreshes your database on a schedule.
- Which lead generation tools are GDPR-friendly?
GDPR-friendly lead generation tools tell you where their data comes from, flag which contacts are in the EU, honor opt-out requests across their whole database, and back their privacy claims with audited certifications. A tool that can’t show you those things leaves your team carrying risk it can’t see.
- What tools find verified emails at scale?
Tools that find verified emails at scale show you four things about every email before you send: a confidence grade, the date it was last confirmed, whether it’s a work or personal address, and whether the person still holds the role. An email without those four facts is a guess, and at scale a guess […] The post What tools find verified emails at scale? appeared first on Lusha.
