Comparison
DiscoLike vs Prospeo
Prospeo is built around finding verified emails and phone numbers, with company search alongside. DiscoLike starts with ICP and role fit, finding relevant companies and people with verified emails, including in local and specialist markets. The overlap is real. The starting points aren't.
TL;DR
Prospeo is a polished contact-finding tool: a person or a LinkedIn profile in, a verified email or phone out, with a well-liked Chrome extension and a free tier. It has added company search with ICP and lookalike filters, so it is no longer just an email finder.
DiscoLike starts with the account and role brief: describe your ICP and who owns the work. Its model, trained on ICP searches whose results customers validated, returns fitting companies and relevant people with emails verified in the same workflow. You pay only for contacts with a validated email. The directory of 87M+ business websites supports territory, sub-industry, lookalike, and homepage phrase inputs, followed by account research and catch-all resolution.
Pick by your primary job. If you already know the companies and need emails for the people, Prospeo is cheap and good at it. Start with DiscoLike for companies and people that fit your ICP and role brief, with validated emails. Radius and sub-industry targeting also help you reach local and specialist markets.
DiscoLike indexes more than 87 million companies: 3x LinkedIn's company coverage, 2x Google Maps coverage, 98% of businesses with a website, at over 99% company-record accuracy.

Two tools built from opposite ends
Prospeo's core loop is contact-first: you already know the person or company, and it finds a verified email or phone, fast, with a well-liked Chrome extension. Its company search adds ICP, lookalike, and technology filters on top.
DiscoLike's core loop starts with the ICP and role you describe. Its model selects companies for what they do and people for the work they own, then verifies emails in the same workflow. Customer domains, homepage phrases, territory, and sub-industry filters refine the search across 87M+ business websites; size, similarity, and account research help prioritize the results.
That ordering matters because contact tools can only enrich companies you already found. If your pipeline problem is upstream, the missing accounts, no email finder solves it.
Prospeo answers "what's this person's email?" DiscoLike answers "which companies should I even be talking to?" and then finds the people.
Test it on regional legal practices
Take a list of regional legal practices you know. First compare qualified firms found: DiscoLike from a radius and the legal sub-industry, Prospeo from its company filters. Count the accepted firms each one adds to your list.
Then compare contacts at the same firms. In DiscoLike that means contact search, email verification in real time with catch-all resolution, with only validated contacts delivered. A strong email-finding result should not hide a missing company, and a larger account list should not hide unresolved emails.
Score the account list and the contacts separately; each tool is strong at a different half.
List-scale economics
Prospeo bills in credits per result, which is fair for one-at-a-time lookups. Check its current pricing for company exports, emails, and mobile numbers before you size a large list.
DiscoLike's model is built for lists: your subscription converts to credits, spent only on new records returned, and anything you've retrieved is cached free for 24 hours on Pay as you go or 30 days on subscriptions, so rerunning a search over cached records costs nothing. Details on the pricing page.
Where Prospeo wins
Entry price and single-lookup UX. With a free tier and credits that roll over, it's one of the cheapest credible ways to get verified emails and phones, and the Chrome extension workflow is well built. Its official MCP server is properly scoped, not a checkbox. If your workflow is LinkedIn-first, one contact at a time, Prospeo is a rational default.
Agent flows: from no account to first search
On DiscoLike the whole flow runs without a person opening a browser until payment. The agent posts the person's work email and name to POST /v1/public/signup, relays the next_step text, and the person confirms by email, keeps Pay as you go or subscribes, and authorizes the MCP client or issues a key. From there the agent authenticates with OAuth 2.1, so no secret sits in a config file, calls count before any large search so it knows the spend, and reads pricing.md, mcp.md, api.md, and llms.txt for the rules. The CLI emits JSON, the Python SDK validates parameters locally, and a published skill teaches Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor when to reach for all of it.
Prospeo's MCP server is official, available remote at mcp.prospeo.io with OAuth or an X-KEY header and locally as an npx package, covering search and enrichment. That is a solid connect story. What Prospeo's docs do not describe is an agent opening the account, a free count before a search, or plain-text pricing and usage rules an agent can read. Those steps still route through a person in the web app.
Prospeo and DiscoLike both connect an agent with OAuth. DiscoLike also handles signup, cost sizing, and machine-readable rules.

FAQ
Common questions
Doesn't Prospeo also do company search with lookalike filters?
Yes. Prospeo's company search includes ICP, lookalike, intent, and technology filters. DiscoLike's directory covers 87M+ business websites and adds radius targeting, close to 300 SMB sub-industries, and exact homepage-phrase matching, and it returns every matching company. Run the same segment through both and count accepted accounts.
Is DiscoLike's contact data verified like Prospeo's?
You pay only for validated contacts with an email, with email verification in real time and catch-all resolution included. Each validated contact costs 5 records at your plan rate, with a $10 per 1,000 floor, plus 1 record per company that delivers a validated contact when you search without your own company list. Validated and Validated (catch-all resolved) cost the same. Every delivery is billed, including repeats. Describe who you want to reach, and scope the search to companies from a saved discovery result if needed. Prospeo puts verified emails at the center of its product, so compare verified, usable contacts on the same firms.
Which is cheaper?
Prospeo, at the entry level: a free tier and per-user plans (from $49 when checked in August 2026) versus DiscoLike Starter at $99 per workspace (Pay as you go is available). For list building, DiscoLike charges $1.50-$3.50/1,000 new records on subscriptions ($5 on Pay as you go) with no per-query fee and caches everything you've retrieved free for 24 hours on Pay as you go or 30 days on subscriptions. Compare cost per accepted account and per usable contact for your own volume.
Can I use Prospeo and DiscoLike together?
Yes. Discover and qualify accounts in DiscoLike, then use Prospeo's extension for ad-hoc LinkedIn contact lookups. Both have MCP servers and APIs, so agents can chain them: DiscoLike for the account list, Prospeo for individual email finds.
Does Prospeo have an MCP server, and how does DiscoLike's compare?
Yes. Prospeo publishes an official MCP server, remote at mcp.prospeo.io with OAuth or an API key header, and a local npx package, covering search and enrichment. DiscoLike's server is remote-only with OAuth 2.1 on every plan and reaches companies by territory, sub-industry, and what their websites say, so an agent can ask for firms within 50 miles of a city whose homepage mentions a specific service, then pull and verify contacts at the results.
