About Apollo.io
Apollo.io is a B2B sales platform that helps sales and marketing teams find companies and contacts, and then reach them in the same tool. It combines a database of more than 240 million contacts and more than 30 million companies with email finding and verification, phone numbers, email sequences, a dialer, and buying-intent signals that show which companies may be ready to buy. It is for B2B teams only β it does not support B2C selling.
How the pricing really works: Apollo.io has a real, permanent free plan that needs no credit card and, in Apollo.io’s own words, stays free with no time limit. The free plan gives 50 email credits per month, the Chrome extension, basic filters, CSV export 25 records at a time, and 3 intent topics, but it connects to Gmail only. Paid plans are priced per user per month when billed annually: Basic is $49, Professional is $79, and Organization is $119. Credits are pooled across a team and granted upfront, and monthly billing also exists at higher prices, although the exact monthly prices were not verified. A separate free trial of the paid plans also exists.
The honest catch: unused credits expire each cycle and do not roll over, and the free plan only connects to Gmail. Moving from free to Basic is a jump to $49 per user per month, and the Organization plan needs a minimum of 3 users.
