LinkedIn data, done right.

Start with the question, not the source. If you have profile URLs and need the detail behind them, that is LinkedIn Profiles at 30 credits per result — an enrichment tool, not a discovery tool.

If you want people who have demonstrated interest in a topic, use LinkedIn Posts to find the posts that drove real discussion, then LinkedIn Comments to extract everyone who engaged with them. That two-step is the highest-yield prospecting pattern on the platform.

If the account rather than the individual is your unit of work, LinkedIn Company returns organisational attributes and employee listings for account mapping before an enterprise call.

LinkedIn Phones is a channel-widening step rather than a discovery one. Run it last, on a qualified shortlist, to add a direct-dial route to people you have already decided are worth calling.

If you need verified work email addresses rather than any of the above, LinkedIn is the wrong surface entirely — profiles rarely publish them. Leads Finder returns them directly at one credit per result.

Every LinkedIn source collects publicly visible information only — what any logged-out visitor sees. Nothing behind a login, a connection, or a privacy restriction is accessed.

Public availability is not the same as unrestricted use. Contacting people you find is governed by the privacy and anti-spam law applicable to you and to them, and in several jurisdictions that means having a documented lawful basis before the first message.

Rate and volume limits exist upstream. Very large single runs are less reliable than several narrower ones, which is also better practice for list quality.

Titles are self-declared and frequently idiosyncratic. Pair a title filter with company headcount before drawing conclusions about seniority or budget authority.
