What is Lusha?
Lusha is a B2B contact-data tool built for speed and simplicity, surfacing work emails and direct-dial phone numbers through a Chrome extension and a searchable database. It leans on ease of use and a freemium entry point rather than the deepest database, which makes it a fast way to grab a decision-maker's number mid-workflow. For a staffing agency, it works on both sides: pulling client-side contacts for BD and work contact data for candidate sourcing. In-house teams reach for it for quick lookups, though its work-email focus means it is weaker for reaching passive candidates on a personal inbox.
What are Lusha's key features?
Browser extension that surfaces contact data on LinkedIn profiles as you browse.
Supplies work emails, direct emails, mobile numbers and office desk lines.
Its direct dial field is an office desk line, per Lusha's docs, not a mobile.
Official MCP server at mcp.lusha.com, plus a developer API.
Free tier, then $32.45 per user per month on Starter, billed yearly.
How do recruiting teams use Lusha?
- Pull a candidate's direct email and mobile while sourcing on LinkedIn.
- Fill in missing contact details on a BD list of hiring managers.
- Enrich records in your ATS/CRM in bulk through the developer API.
Who is Lusha best for?
- Recruiters who work profile by profile in the browser, not from bulk lists.
- Agencies running BD and candidate sourcing off the same LinkedIn workflow.
- Not for teams that need full coverage; users report 7 or 8 hits out of 10.
What are Lusha's pros and cons?
Pros
- Fast, clean Chrome extension that surfaces work contact data without leaving the profile.
- Freemium plan and self-serve pricing make it easy to start and scale.
- ISO 27701 certified and GDPR/CCPA compliant, with a privacy-first reputation.
- Official MCP server plus a REST API and native CRM integrations.
- Rated 4.3 on G2 across 1,600+ reviews.
Cons
- Database depth and coverage trail incumbents like ZoomInfo and Cognism, especially for harder-to-find contacts.
- Focused on work emails and phones, not personal emails, so it is weaker for reaching passive candidates on a personal inbox.
- Credits on lower tiers run out quickly for high-volume outreach.
- Contact data only - no candidate sourcing, ranking, or ATS features.
