Apollo
B2B sales intelligence platform with 270M+ verified contacts
Overview
Apollo combines a massive contact database with outreach automation, creating an end-to-end sales platform. With 270M+ verified contacts and 60M+ companies, finding your ideal customer profiles is a search query away - not months of manual list building.
The prospecting AI helps identify the accounts and contacts most likely to convert based on your ideal customer profile. Instead of blasting generic messages to thousands of contacts, Apollo helps you focus on the right people with personalized outreach at scale.
For startups without a dedicated sales ops team, Apollo consolidates what would otherwise require three or four separate tools - contact database, email sequences, dialer, and basic CRM. This consolidation simplifies the tech stack and reduces per-seat costs.
