Loopster is a real alternative if you are tired of dual credit meters and you want a domain-in, company-record-out lookup that an agent can call. It is not yet "the best" enrichment tool. I ran three free company enrichments on 9 November 2026. All three hit. One field looked wrong enough that I will not repeat it as fact. Public reviews are too thin for me to lean on, and I did not spend the wallet.
Last updated - November 2026
I am Austin Heaton. The enrichment questions I get are usually from fintech and B2B SaaS teams who already own a sequencer and a CRM, and who are deciding whether the next tool should be another credit pile. Loopster's pitch is the opposite shape: a flat subscription, its own database included, and a wallet in ordinary currency when you step outside that database. This review is that pitch, checked against the pricing page and against three lookups I actually ran.
Prices, row caps, wallet amounts, API limits, and the trial terms are from Loopster's pricing page, read on 9 November 2026, as listed on the Loopster pricing page, November 2026. The product is the one at loopster.ai. I am not reviewing unrelated products that happen to use the same word. The head-to-head with the incumbent is Loopster vs Clay. The page layer in front of enrichment, which Loopster does not replace, is how I use Firecrawl for leads.
Key Takeaways
- As listed on the Loopster pricing page, November 2026: Launch is $179 a month, Scale is $449, Unlimited is $1,299. Rows per table are 50,000, 200,000, and unlimited. Included wallet balances are $25, $80, and $200. API caps are 10,000, 50,000, and 150,000 requests a day. Extra API on Unlimited is described as batches of 150,000 requests a day for $499 a month each. Speed caps are 500, 2,000, and 5,000 rows a minute. Workspaces are one, one, and unlimited.
- The same page says every plan includes its own database (the claims are 750 million-plus contacts, 75 million-plus companies, 145 million-plus work emails, 115 million-plus personal emails, 74 million-plus phones), refreshed daily, under a fair-use rule that blocks bulk database export. Premium vendors are "50+" and billed at cost from the wallet. Your own vendor key is supposed to cost nothing through Loopster. Those size and "at cost" lines are vendor claims. I did not audit them.
- The trial FAQ says fourteen days of Scale, 10,000 free Loopster Data enrichments, no card. Adding a card puts $10 in the wallet, described as a credit from Loopster rather than a charge.
- I ran the free company-by-domain enrichment on stripe.com, ramp.com, and riseworks.io. One run, about 1.4 seconds, three of three complete, zero errors, zero wallet spend. Stripe and Ramp records looked like usable firmographics. Rise returned a revenue band of "Below $500k" that I am flagging as unverified and possibly stale. I would not use it.
- Company search is free and is not relevance-ranked. A keyword that was a well-known domain also matched unrelated organizations whose descriptions mention that company's payments product. Use domain enrich when you know the account. Use search when you are exploring, and read the rows.
What Loopster Is, and What It Is Not
It is a table product with a database attached. You build a list, enrich it, waterfall anything the first database missed, and call the same functions from an API or an MCP client. The pricing page is explicit that the first stop is Loopster Data, and that the waterfall only spends money when that stop misses. It names CRMs such as HubSpot and Salesforce, HTTP calls, webhooks, and bring-your-own-key on the integration row, and it marks that row for every plan, not for a higher tier.

Book a CallIt is not a scraper. If you need the live pricing page, that is a different tool. It is not a guarantee that a phone number exists. The included-data claim is large, and the fair-use sentence is the boundary: normal GTM work is described as uncapped, bulk export of the database is described as the thing the policy stops. I did not try to export a database, and I am not interested in a vendor that would let me.
It is also new enough that I will not pretend the market has graded it. I did not re-open G2 while writing. I am not going to quote a star rating or a review count from a search snippet. If the snippet I was handed beforehand is even roughly right, the public review set is tiny. A tiny set cannot carry this purchase. The lookups can.

The wallet is the part people skip, and then they are surprised. The platform fee does not include every vendor on earth. It includes Loopster's own data. Everyone else is a line item, shown before you run, drawn from a balance that the page says never expires. Launch's included $25 is a taste, not a program. If your motion depends on a premium mobile-number vendor, price that vendor on a hundred rows before you compare $179 with a credit tool's headline. I opened a capability catalog on 9 November and saw managed prices in that catalog, not on a checkout I completed. Examples I wrote down: a FullEnrich work email around $0.048 a row, a Surfe company enrich around $0.034, and an Aviato financials lookup around $0.51. Confirm the live number. Catalogs move. I did not press run on any of them.
Bring-your-own-key is the other half of the wallet story. The page says those lookups cost nothing through Loopster, because the vendor bills you on the key you already pay for. I did not connect a third-party key. If your team already has one, this is the first thing I would test, because it decides whether Loopster is an orchestrator you add or a data bill you replace.
Agency shape is on Unlimited: more than one workspace, client roles, and a spend limit per workspace against one wallet. Launch and Scale are a single workspace. The page says you can still separate clients as tables inside that workspace. That is a weaker wall. I would not put two clients who should never see each other's rows onto Launch and hope a naming convention holds.
If you are comparing this invoice with the credit tool you already run, Book a Call and bring one real workflow, including the vendor you cannot drop. Pricing for help implementing it depends on scope. The software prices above are the vendor's, not mine.
What I Tested Through the MCP
The connection exposed the table surface you would expect: tables, columns, waterfalls, people search, company search, schedules, webhooks, export, a wallet read, and a way to run a named capability. I stayed on the free path. The capability was the company enrich that takes a domain. I sent three public domains in one run and set the max cost to zero so a surprise premium hop could not bill.
The run finished in about 1.4 seconds. Three of three complete. Zero errors. A wallet read in the same session returned a rate limit (HTTP 429) on the free trial. That did not block the enrichments. I would still want a wallet read that works before I handed an agent a paid waterfall. A 429 on the balance endpoint is a bad time to discover the cap is invisible.
| Domain | Found | What the record contained | What I will not treat as fact |
|---|---|---|---|
| stripe.com | Yes | Name Stripe. Industry Information Technology. Employees 16,859, band 5,001+. HQ South San Francisco, California. | The employee count is the record, not a filing I checked. |
| ramp.com | Yes | Name Ramp. Industry Finance and Banking. Employees 4,490, band 1,001 to 5,000. HQ New York, New York. The headline text included a "70,000+ teams" phrase. | That teams phrase is marketing copy inside the record. I did not audit it. |
| riseworks.io | Yes | Name Rise. Industry Finance and Banking. Employees 115, band 51 to 200. HQ New York, New York. Revenue range returned as "Below $500k." | The revenue range looks questionable. Unverified. I am not using it. |
I also ran company search. It returns useful fields when you are browsing: funding, location, a quality score. The order is index order, not relevance. The interface warned me. I am repeating the warning because it is the difference between a demo and a list you import. Searching a keyword that was simply "stripe.com" also brought back unrelated organizations whose descriptions mention Stripe as a payment method. If you know the company, enrich the domain. If you search, filter after, with a human.
Field Coverage and Quality
Company firmographics on two famous domains were the easy pass: a name, an industry, a headcount band, a headquarters. That is enough to skip a tab in the research step. It is not enough to claim the database has 145 million work emails. I did not ask for a work email, a personal email, or a phone. Those capabilities exist on the free Loopster Data list I could see (they take a LinkedIn URL, or an email when you are going the other direction). Seeing a button and landing a verified inbox are different events. Anyone who quotes a hit rate from this review is inventing one.
The Rise revenue band is the quality lesson. A field came back filled, which feels like success, and the value is one I will not stand behind. Stale bands are worse than blanks, because a blank makes the rep look it up. I want the product to be willing to return a blank. I cannot tell from one row whether this was a stale source, a mapping bug, or a company record that was never updated after the business changed. I can tell you not to automate a sentence that includes that field until you have checked it on accounts you know.
Headcount has the same caveat, softer. 16,859 and 4,490 are precise. Precise is not the same as current. Use the band if you need a filter. Open the company's own page if the number is about to enter a proposal.
Integrations, API, and Agent Access
The reason this product showed up on my list is the agent path, not a new waterfall diagram. Every plan, on the pricing page, includes the API and MCP, plus the CRM and HTTP connections that many credit tools hold until a higher tier. Daily API caps are the real limit: 10,000 on Launch is a lot of single-record calls and a small cap if an agent retries in a loop. Unlimited's add-on price for more requests, $499 a month per extra 150,000 a day, is a number I would put next to the platform fee before an agency promises "unlimited automation." The rows can be unlimited on that plan. The request cap is not, until you buy the batch.
Publishing a function so an agent can call it is the workflow the page describes, and it matches what I had in the tool list: run a capability, pass a domain, get a record, with a cost ceiling. That ceiling is the control. Set it to zero and you stay inside included data, which is what I did. Leave it open and a miss in the first database becomes a paid vendor, which is what the waterfall is for, and also how a test becomes an invoice.
Loopster's own page compares itself with Clay, including per-lookup prices such as a Findymail work email at $0.0127 on Loopster versus $0.029 on Clay. I am attributing those deltas to Loopster's published comparison, checked as part of the 9 November read. I did not reprice Findymail inside Clay. Vendor comparison tables are marketing until you run the same row on both keys. There is a longer version of that argument in the versus post. I will not pick a winner from Loopster's grid.
Pros and Cons
What held up. The flat fee is legible. The free company lookup was fast and, on two of three domains, good enough to brief from. MCP access on the plan I could call, without an enterprise conversation, is unusual and useful. The wallet model is easier to explain to a finance partner than a credit that means three different things. Workspaces on Unlimited match how agencies actually split clients. Bring-your-own-key, if it works as written, keeps you from paying twice.
What did not. I have almost no third-party review trail I am willing to cite. One firmographic field was not trustworthy. Search relevance is a footgun if someone exports the first page. The included wallet on Launch is small the moment you leave the house database. Premium coverage is "50+" vendors by Loopster's count, against Clay's "150+" by Clay's count. I did not inventory either catalog row by row. A smaller catalog is fine if it has the vendor you use. It is not fine if the one missing vendor is the one your data is in.
Who Should Buy It
- A founder running outbound without a credits specialist. Launch, after you spend the trial's free enrichments on your real ICP and count blanks. If the blanks are emails, price the wallet before you cancel the old tool.
- A team whose agent stack is the product. The API caps and the cost ceiling matter more than the homepage. Scale's 50,000 requests a day is the first cap I would try to live inside.
- An agency with more than one client who must not share a workspace. Unlimited, or do not pretend Launch's single workspace is multi-tenant.
- A team that needs every niche provider and a mature admin stack. Stay where you are until Loopster's catalog and its security paperwork match the questionnaire you already passed. I did not review a SOC report for Loopster. I am not implying one.
Verdict: Best New Enrichment Tool?
Best new option for a specific buyer: someone who wants included company and contact data, a bill they can explain, and an agent that can call the same lookup the table uses. "Best" across the whole category would require a provider breadth and a review history I do not have, plus paid lookups I chose not to spend. Clay remains the default when the requirement is the long marketplace, signals, and enterprise controls. Loopster is the default when the requirement is "stop doing credit math" and the trial's hit rate on your own list is acceptable.
I would trial it on Scale's fourteen days, enrich domains I already know, and throw away any field I cannot spot-check. I would not migrate a working Clay workspace because a homepage said unlimited. Austin Heaton would rather see the blank rate on one hundred accounts you actually sell to than another vendor slide about hundreds of millions of contacts.
What I Could Not Confirm
- A live G2 or Capterra review count. I did not re-open those pages. No rating appears above as a fact.
- Work-email, personal-email, and phone hit rates on Loopster Data. The buttons exist. I did not press them.
- Any premium waterfall result. The catalog prices I noted were labels, not charges.
- The Rise revenue band. Returned by the tool. Unverified. Possibly stale. Do not reuse it.
- Employee counts and the Ramp "70,000+ teams" line, beyond "the record contained them."
- Database-size claims (750 million contacts and the rest) and the "at cost, no margin" sentence. They are on the pricing page. I did not audit the corpus or the vendor contracts.
- Loopster's per-lookup comparison with Clay's prices. Attributed above as Loopster's table. Not independently repriced.
- That the wallet 429 was more than a transient limit. One read failed that way. The enrichments did not.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Loopster?
Loopster is a GTM platform at loopster.ai. It combines tables, waterfalls, and a contact database it includes on the subscription, then charges a wallet only when a lookup leaves that database for a premium vendor. It is not a web scraper, and it is not the only enrichment product in this category. I tested the free company lookup, not the paid wallet.
Is Loopster Data really included?
The pricing page says the company's own contact and company data is included on every plan, with a fair-use rule against bulk-exporting the database. The three company lookups I ran were priced at zero and returned records. I did not test work-email, personal-email, or phone coverage, so I cannot tell you the hit rate on those fields.
How does the wallet work?
Premium vendors and some AI runs draw from a dollar wallet. The pricing page says each plan starts with a balance, funds do not expire, you see a price before a run, and bringing your own vendor key means that lookup does not spend the wallet. A wallet read on the free trial briefly rate-limited. The enrichments themselves still completed.
How good was enrichment in the test?
Three public domains, one free company lookup each, all three found, in about a second and a half, with no errors. Firmographics on the two large, well-known companies looked usable. One revenue band on the third domain looked off, and I did not verify it. I would not paste that band into a sales note.
Does Loopster replace Clay?
It replaces Clay only for the jobs its database and its provider list actually cover, and only if you prefer a flat platform fee to an actions-and-credits meter. Clay still publishes a larger provider marketplace. I did not run a paid lookup on either product. The side-by-side is the comparison post linked from this page.
Is there a free trial?
The pricing FAQ says the trial is the Scale plan for fourteen days, with a block of free enrichments from Loopster Data and no card. Adding a card is described as adding a small wallet credit so you can try premium vendors. I am not repeating a dollar amount for that credit in this answer. Read the FAQ on the pricing page before you add a card.
Can AI agents run Loopster?
The pricing page says API and MCP are on every plan, and that an agent can call a published function through them. I ran the company lookup through the MCP connection. I did not test every table action. An agent with the key can spend the wallet, so the cap belongs in the setup, not in a reminder afterward.
What could you not verify?
Email and phone hit rates, any paid vendor lookup, a live third-party review count, and whether every firmographic field is current. One revenue field in particular should be treated as unverified. Provider counts and database-size claims are the vendor's, from the pricing page, not a census I performed.
