People Data Labs alternative · api + mcp + combo endpoints, not raw dataset licensing

Looking for a People Data Labs alternative?
API + MCP + combo endpoints, not raw dataset licensing

PDL sells raw B2B datasets you license and host yourself. AgentEnrich is an API you call when you need an answer.

3 data layers under one API.
Plus an MCP server. Plus combo endpoints.

Layer 1 · Identity

Enrichment data

500M+ people. 70M+ companies. Verified emails. Mobile phones. Decision makers. Buying committees.

Layer 2 · Triggers

Real-time signals

Funding rounds. M&A. Hiring spikes. Job changes (with the actual LinkedIn post). Refreshed every 60 seconds.

Layer 3 · Local

Local SMB data

Plumbers in Tampa. Med spas in Austin. Owner name, mobile, email. B2SMB unlock most APIs don't ship.

Their focus.

Enterprise-grade raw B2B datasets. Person + company records sold as bulk file licenses. You host the data, build the indexes, manage the freshness. API access on enterprise contracts. Big in dev community for building your own enrichment products.

Pricing: Enterprise licensing. Typically $25,000-$100,000+/year. Dataset license + API credits separately billed. Annual contracts. Sales-led.

Be honest about it.

PDL wins when you're building your own enrichment product or analytics platform, you have engineering resources to host + index datasets, and you have $25k+/yr budget. Other data vendors use PDL as their upstream. If you're a vendor, license PDL. If you're a buyer, use the vendor.

Pick AgentEnrich when: You want an API that returns answers, not raw data files to host. You don't have a data engineering team to build indexes. You want MCP, combo endpoints, real-time signals, and SMB data without enterprise contracts.

Not sure? Hit the free public sandbox and try the API yourself. No signup. No card. No demo call.

Common questions.

Is AgentEnrich a People Data Labs alternative?

Different product category. PDL sells raw datasets you license. AgentEnrich is an API. If you want to build your own enrichment product, license PDL. If you want to call an API and get answers, use us. Many AgentEnrich-style vendors use PDL or similar as their upstream data source.

Can I get PDL-style raw data from AgentEnrich?

Not as a bulk file license. We're API-only. If you need raw datasets for ML training or your own infrastructure, PDL or Coresignal is the right pick. For real-time enrichment, signals, and AI-agent workflows, we're the right pick.

Is AgentEnrich cheaper than PDL?

For most use cases, yes. PDL licenses start at $25k+/yr. AgentEnrich Pro is $97/mo ($1,164/yr). 20-50x cheaper for the same person-level data quality, plus signals and SMB data PDL doesn't ship.

Why pick AgentEnrich if I'm small?

PDL's pricing assumes you have engineering bandwidth and budget to host their datasets. AgentEnrich works the first day: npx @agentenrich/mcp, a Builder $49/mo subscription, and Claude calls our 12 tools. No data engineering required.

3 data layers. One API key.
7-day free trial, no card.

Start on Builder for $49/mo. Or test the public sandbox first.
