  "ai_features": "The weakest AI story in this sweep, and the docs are honest about it even while the homepage is not. CUFinder's own API documentation describes no AI features at all, only enrichment, verification, confidence scoring, matching and normalisation, which are classic deterministic data operations. The marketing site's \"AI verification\" is one classification stage in a five-stage pipeline. The genuinely AI-adjacent thing CUFinder ships is the MCP server itself, which is plumbing letting somebody else's AI call CUFinder, not AI that CUFinder built. Calling this an AI product is a stretch.",

  "notes": "Added 2026-08-25 in the coverage sweep. Fully self-serve with no sales call for standard tiers. Free plan 15 credits with no card. Lite $49/mo (1,000 credits), Standard $129/mo (3,000), Pro $299/mo (10,000, marked most popular), Premium $449/mo (20,000), roughly 30% off annual, plus a custom enterprise tier that does require sales. All tiers include unlimited teammates at no per-seat cost, which is a real differentiator against Lead411's per-seat model in the same file. Credits are consumed only on successful returns. Roughly 40 endpoints: 22 company APIs, 6 contact APIs, 5 general normalisers, 1 jobs API. CAVEAT: the MCP docs say the remote server is \"available on paid plans starting from Growth\" but no tier called Growth exists on the current pricing page (Lite/Standard/Pro/Premium). That is stale doc naming; the safe read is that MCP needs a paid plan and probably starts at Lite $49/mo. A third-party source claims a 50-credit free tier while the vendor page says 15; trust 15. LEGACY NAME TRACE: Software Advice still profiles it under the old \"Company URL Finder\" listing, which is where the name came from, and the old docs host mcpdoc.cufinder.io now 301-redirects to apidoc.cufinder.io. Database size claims of 1B+ profiles and 85M companies are vendor copy, unverified. NOT VERIFIED: the REST API auth header format could not be confirmed from the docs. 2026-09-03: vendor docs state the Person Enrichment API takes full_name and company (\"The person's company, domain, name, or LinkedIn URL\") and returns social.linkedin_url, at \"Credit usage is 10 credits per request\" (https://apidoc.cufinder.io/apis/person-enrichment.md); the MCP introduction names no tools and states a free tier of 50 credits/month (https://apidoc.cufinder.io/mcp/introduction).",
