UpLead is a B2B data provider and sales intelligence platform focused on delivering high-quality, real-time verified contact and company data. The product gives go-to-market teams access to over 160–180 million B2B contacts across 200+ countries, with a 95%+ email accuracy guarantee backed by a credit-refund policy when data is bad. Its core Prospector tool lets users build granular target lists using 50+ filters spanning geography, firmographics, technographics, intent signals and more, while real-time email verification reduces bounces and protects sender reputation.
The platform is built around a modular feature set: Prospector for list building, Email Verification, Data Enrichment, Bulk Lookup, Email Finder, Technographics, Intent Data, a Chrome extension, and a real-time Data API. UpLead integrates with major CRMs and sales tools such as Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, Pipedrive, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Outreach, Salesloft and others, as well as Zapier for long-tail integrations. This allows users to push clean, verified records directly into their existing workflows and keep CRM data fresh over time.
Founded in 2017 by CEO Will Cannon, UpLead positions itself as a quality-first alternative to large, scrape-heavy databases like ZoomInfo and Apollo. Rather than optimizing for sheer database size, the company emphasizes curated, human-validated and AI-checked records, combined with real-time verification at the moment of export. Its website and marketing materials highlight being roughly one-third the cost of leading enterprise platforms while still delivering strong accuracy and ROI for SMB and mid-market teams, and its G2, Capterra and TrustRadius scores reflect consistently high user satisfaction around ease of use and data quality.
UpLead is headquartered in Covina, California, with additional presence in Walnut, California and Cluj-Napoca, Romania. It is a privately held, bootstrapped or lightly funded company with 51–100 employees and 4,000+ customers globally, including well-known brands such as Google, Salesforce, Microsoft, Amazon and Dropbox. The company operates as a registered data broker in California and publicly states compliance with GDPR and CCPA, with opt-out and data removal workflows documented in its help center.
