What is Apollo?
Apollo is a prospecting platform where a rep finds people in its B2B contact and company database, enriches the records, and then works them through outreach and calling from the same workspace. Its site lists the Apollo Workspace for prospecting, outreach and dialing, plus AI agents that research accounts and prioritize leads.
For anyone who calls, the useful part is that the phone numbers sit next to the list-building filters. Apollo says the database covers more than 240 million contacts and 30 million companies, and its site names a Parallel Dialer among the tools.
Who it’s for
A small outbound team, or a founder doing their own prospecting, gets the most from Apollo. One login covers building the list, filling in contact details, sending sequences and dialing, so there is no stitching together of four tools before the first call. The free plan, which has no time limit, lets you try that on a real list before spending anything.

Where Apollo fits in your calling
An Apollo export can include phone numbers, but nothing in the file says whether a number is worth a call. Checking the export separates the rows to phone from the rows to email.

Frequently asked questions
Apollo is a prospecting platform that puts a B2B contact and company database, enrichment, outreach sequences and calling in one workspace. Its site says the database covers more than 240 million contacts and 30 million companies, and it also lists AI agents that research accounts and prioritize leads.
It suits a small outbound team or a founder doing their own prospecting. One login covers building the list, filling in contact details, sending sequences and dialing. A team whose reps live in a dedicated dialer and only need numbers gets less out of it.
Yes. Its pricing page lists a Free plan and says the Starter plan stays free with no time limit, so you can try it on a real prospect list before paying. Paid plans sit above it.
The paid prices could not be read. When we checked its pricing page on Oct 7, 2026, it showed no dollar amounts or credit counts for each plan, only the free plan under the paid ones. Check the page itself for current figures.
Its site names a Parallel Dialer as part of the Apollo Workspace, which is a dialer that places several calls at once. We did not record how many lines it runs, so check that before you plan around it.
Its homepage names Gmail, ChatGPT and Claude among its integrations, and it offers a Chrome extension for prospecting from a profile or website. We could not read its full integration list, so check the page for your CRM.
The pages we read do not put a figure on it. They say Apollo holds phone numbers next to its list-building filters, but nothing states how often a number reaches a person. A team that dials all day will still want to check numbers before they go into a queue.
No, there is no native link. The route is a CSV: export from People search with the phone fields included and upload the file, or send the rows to the API. Only US phone numbers are checked, and the first 250 contacts are free, with no card needed.
Filter People search to your target contacts or open a saved list, then export the contacts as a CSV with the phone fields included. Upload the file and point it at the phone column, using the mobile where there is one.
Each contact comes back High chance, Low chance or Bad data. Phone the High chance rows from the sequence's call tasks, keep Low chance rows in a multi-channel sequence, and move Bad data and Email & LinkedIn rows to email only. One credit checks one contact.
Know who’ll answer
before you call.
Ask your AI tool who on your list will pick up. Every contact comes back High chance, Low chance or Bad data, with the best way to reach them.
No card required. US phone numbers only.
