How we ranked them

Each tool scores one point for each of these 5 criteria it meets. Ties go to the lower pay-as-you-go cost per 1,000; a tool with no published per-1,000 price sorts after those with one. Where our sources do not say, the cell reads "Not stated" and scores nothing. 67Leads is scored the same way from live figures, and we sell it, so weigh that.

  1. Free allowance renews. The free part comes back every day or month, rather than once at sign-up.
  2. Free use returns contacts. The free part gives you contact details or a download, not a view-only list.
  3. Built for local businesses. You can ask for a kind of business in a place, rather than starting from a company domain or a web page.
  4. Includes email addresses. Email addresses are part of what it returns.
  5. Verification in the free part. The free part includes a check on whether an email address is deliverable.

Questions

What is the best free lead generation tool?

On our 5 criteria, checked 5 Nov 2026, Outscraper comes first. Outscraper's free allowance renews every 30 days and covers places, contacts and 25 verifications. The best choice still depends on whether you start from a trade and city or from a company domain.

Are free lead lists any good?

They are a fair way to test a market. Free tiers are small, and an email that has not been checked against its mail server can bounce, which hurts the sender's reputation.

How many leads does 67Leads give free?

Every new account exports its first 67 leads free, no card. Searching with contacts masked is free with no account.

How is this list ranked?

Each tool scores one point per criterion it meets, shown with its source. A criterion our sources do not cover scores nothing and says so. Ties go to the lower pay-as-you-go cost per 1,000. 67Leads is scored the same way, from live warehouse figures, and is not placed first by default.
