Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you offer any free plans?

    We do - and you won't even have to sign up. You can process 100 names/day with our API or CSV tool and we'll limit you based on your IP.

  • Can the tool be integrated with our customer relationship management (CRM) systems?

    There's plenty of ways to start integrating our prediction services with your existing tools. The easiest way to get started is with our official no-code apps for Zapier, Make and Pipedream.
