Features, pricing and fit, compared from a cold calling point of view. Not affiliated with either tool.
Lead411 and Lusha are both B2B contact databases that return direct dial numbers and emails for export to a CRM or sales tool. They count usage differently. Lead411 sells export tiers and adds growth signals and optional buyer intent data, while Lusha publishes a credit price list with a higher cost for phone numbers.

The short answer
Here is who each of Lead411 and Lusha suits best, from what each vendor says on its own site.
- You want verified mobile numbers on every subscription, including the 7-day trial with 50 exports.
- You want hiring, funding and executive change alerts, plus optional Bombora buyer intent data, in the same database as the contacts.
- You plan to pull contacts in volume and would rather count exports than pay a credit price for each phone number.
- You want to see the cost of each reveal before you export, with 1 credit for an email and 5 credits for a phone number.
- You prospect from LinkedIn and want a Chrome extension, an API and MCP, or a free plan with 40 credits a month.
- You need a long integrations list, since Lusha names Nooks, Salesloft, Gong, Clay, Zapier, n8n and Bullhorn alongside the common CRMs.

Frequently asked questions
Lead411 counts exports, with Spark at $49 per month for 1,000 exports. Lusha counts credits, with Starter at $49.90 per month for 400 credits, and spends 5 credits on a phone number. Lead411 lists unlimited exports on a quote only, so ask both vendors for current terms.
Yes, in different ways. Lead411 lists a 7-day free trial with 50 exports. Lusha lists a free plan with 40 credits a month, which covers eight phone reveals at 5 credits each. Lusha's free plan has no trial window, but its allowance is small.
It depends on volume. Lusha charges 5 credits per phone reveal, so a call list uses credits quickly on its smaller plans. Lead411 charges per export, and unused exports roll over. The pages do not say what a single number costs on Lead411, so work it out from your own volume.
Lead411 says every subscription includes verified mobile numbers that go through multi-layer validation. Lusha lists direct dials, with 117M+ in its database, and its CSV export has Phone 1 and Phone 2 with a type. The records we read give no answer rate for either one.
Both do, in different forms. Lead411 has native growth intent data and Bombora intent data, bundled on some plans and optional on others. Lusha lists 26 buying signals such as funding, hiring and leadership changes. The Lusha pages we read do not mention a separate intent data feed.
Lusha has the longer published list, including Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho CRM, Outreach, Salesloft, Nooks and Gong. Lead411 names Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive and Outreach in its FAQ but has no dedicated integrations page, so confirm your tool with the vendor.
Lead411 speaks to sales, marketing, RevOps and business development teams at startups and small and mid-sized businesses. Lusha suits a small sales team or a rep working from LinkedIn that wants a public price list. Both records point to smaller companies rather than large enterprises.
Lusha's export guide says only revealed contacts appear in a CSV, and a search export holds up to 150 contacts at a time. Lead411 says plans are counted in exports, and the records we read do not give a per-file cap. Check the export rules for your plan.
No native integration exists for either. Export the CSV from Lead411 or Lusha, upload it, and each US phone number comes back High chance, Low chance or Bad data. Only US numbers are checked, and the first 250 contacts are free with no card.
Call the High chance contacts first, and send Low chance contacts to email or a mixed sequence. Leave Bad data out of the call list. With Lusha, check Phone 1 and try Phone 2 for Bad data rows. With Lead411, pull fresh contacts with your next export.
