Fetchin vs Limadata
Limadata is broader than us by design: people, companies, jobs, real-time signals for job and organisational changes, an AI search layer, and a webhook-based watch API. Over 50 endpoints in total.
Breadth costs. The $50 plan buys 2,500 credits, and person enrichment is one credit, so $20 per 1,000. The $200 plan brings that to $10 per 1,000. Fetchin is $1.00.
If what you need is core professional profile and company data at volume, that difference is hard to argue with. If you need change monitoring, we have no equivalent.

Where Fetchin wins
- $1.00 per 1,000 against $20 on their entry plan. A 20x gap, narrowing to 10x on their $200 plan.
- 1,000 free credits against 100 per month.
- Published latency figures with a P95, not just a sub-second claim.
- A public status page and a published rate limit you can design against. Limadata publishes neither.
- Deeper post, comment, reaction and engagement coverage.
Where Limadata wins
- Real-time signals for job changes and organisational moves. Fetchin has nothing comparable.
- A watch API with webhooks for monitoring records over time.
- Job postings, mobile phone lookup and an AI search layer, none of which Fetchin offers.
- A free tier that renews monthly rather than a one-off allocation.
Choose Fetchin if…
- Your workload is core profile and company data at volume, where the unit gap dominates.
- You need published latency, rate limits and a status page.
Choose Limadata if…
- You need change signals or webhook monitoring. This is a real capability gap on our side.
- You want jobs, phone lookup and search from one vendor and can absorb the unit cost.
Fetchin vs Limadata, answered
- Is Fetchin cheaper than Limadata?
- Substantially. Limadata is $50 for 2,500 credits at one credit per person enrichment, which is $20 per 1,000, improving to $10 per 1,000 on the $200 plan. Fetchin is $1.00 per 1,000.
- What does Limadata do that Fetchin cannot?
- Real-time signals for job and organisational changes, a webhook-based watch API for monitoring records over time, job postings, mobile phone lookup and an AI search layer. Fetchin has no equivalent for any of these today.
- Which is faster?
- Limadata claims sub-second search and enrichment. Fetchin publishes a 1s median and 1.5s P95 for profile requests. Their claim has no published percentile behind it, so the figures are not directly comparable. Both offer free credits to test with.
- Does Fetchin plan to add search?
- People search and bulk datasets are on the roadmap for Q4 2026. Job postings and email lookup are not currently planned, though support will discuss specific use cases.
