Leadsforge

Leadsforge is an AI-driven lead search engine that lets sales teams find verified contact data by describing their ideal customer profile in plain language rather than clicking through traditional filter dashboards.

The platform searches across 500M+ contacts using waterfall enrichment to pull emails, LinkedIn profiles, and phone numbers from multiple data sources in a single workflow.

It is best suited for sales reps, SDRs, and small outbound teams who want a fast, no-code prospecting tool, with plans starting at $49 per month.

Pricing

Leadsforge offers an Essential plan at $49 per month that includes 2,000 export credits, where each email lookup costs 1 credit and each phone number lookup costs 10 credits.

Email validation consumes additional credits on top of the base export cost, so teams that rely heavily on phone lookups should calculate their expected usage before committing.

A free signup option provides 100 credits to test the platform before purchasing. Higher-tier plans are available for teams with larger prospecting volumes, and credits do not expire, which benefits teams with uneven outreach cadences.

How Leadsforge Works

Leadsforge replaces the traditional filter-and-export workflow with a conversational interface similar to a chat tool.

A user types a description of their target audience, for example "marketing managers at Series B SaaS companies in the US with fewer than 200 employees," and the platform interprets that input, queries multiple underlying data sources, and returns a matched list of profiles ready for enrichment.

Once a list is generated, users select which data points they need: verified business emails, LinkedIn profile URLs, or direct phone numbers.

The waterfall enrichment engine then cycles through multiple providers in sequence until it finds a valid result for each contact, rather than relying on a single database.

This approach improves fill rates compared to single-source tools, though accuracy in niche or specialized industries can still vary based on available coverage.

The platform also supports lookalike searches, where users paste in a list of existing customer domains and Leadsforge surfaces companies with similar firmographic profiles.

The competitor follower feature works by accepting a company domain and returning a list of people who follow that company's LinkedIn page, which can indicate buying intent or competitive awareness.

Leadsforge Within the Forge Stack

Leadsforge is one product inside a broader suite of outbound tools built by the Salesforge team.

The full stack includes Salesforge for multichannel sequence execution, Agent Frank as an AI SDR, Infraforge and Mailforge for private and distributed email infrastructure, Primeforge for Google and Microsoft 365 setup, and Warmforge for email deliverability and inbox warm-up.

For teams already using Salesforge, Leadsforge integrates directly so that a prospected list can be pushed into an active sequence without a CSV export step.

Teams not using Salesforge can still export to CSV or connect to external CRMs.

This tight integration is a meaningful advantage for teams building a full outbound stack within one ecosystem, but it also means Leadsforge is most valuable when paired with other Forge products rather than used as a standalone data tool.

Data Quality and Credit Math Considerations

G2 reviewers consistently highlight speed and lead volume as strengths, with one reviewer noting the ability to get 2,000 leads for $49.

The most common criticism in reviews points to a learning curve for new users and occasional data gaps when prospecting in niche or highly specialized industries.

The credit structure deserves careful attention before signing up. On the $49 Essential plan, phone number lookups cost 10 credits each compared to 1 credit for an email.

A list of 200 contacts with both email and phone would consume 2,200 credits, exceeding the monthly allotment.

Teams that primarily need emails will find the credit math favorable, while teams that prioritize direct dials should model their typical export composition against available credits before choosing a plan.
