Pricing analysis RocketReach 2026 : per third-party sources, annual lookup quotas are now per-tier (1,200 / 3,600 / 10,000 on Essentials/Pro/Ultimate) — softer than previous '10K/mo across all tiers' framing. Export caps remain the practical bottleneck.
RocketReach ships 6 tiers. Per-seat pricing combined with a credit system for data lookups - the listed price is rarely the real cost.
RocketReach pricing tiers — verified May 2026 against the vendor and cross-checked with our review data:
| Plan | Price | Best for | Limits / Inclusions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Evaluation / testing | 5 lookups (one-time) · 5 lookups total (NOT per month — one-time) · Chrome extension for evaluation |
| Essentials | $69/mo ($33/mo (annual -52%)) | Email lookups only (NO phone numbers) | 1,200 annual lookups (~100/mo) · Email lookups only (NO phone numbers) · 1,200 exports/year (= 100/mo) |
| Pro | $119/mo ($75/mo (annual -37%)) | Email + mobile + direct phone reveals | 3,600 annual lookups (~300/mo) · Email + mobile + direct phone reveals · 6,000 exports/year (= 500/mo) |
| Ultimate | $209/mo ($175/mo (annual -16%)) | All Pro features + full API access | 10,000 annual lookups (~833/mo) · All Pro features + full API access · 20,000 exports/year (= 1,666/mo) |
| Team Pro | $83/user (annual only) ($83/user/mo (annual only, 2-seat min)) | Annual billing only (no monthly option) | 10,000 per seat · Annual billing only (no monthly option) · Minimum 2 seats = $1,992/year entry |
| Enterprise | Custom (~$6,000/year+) | Custom lookup volumes (> 10K/mo) | Custom · Custom lookup volumes (> 10K/mo) · SSO + advanced security |
RocketReach bills actions in credits with non-equal costs. A 5,000-credit plan does NOT mean 5,000 lookups.
How RocketReach charges per action - the credit table buyers should memorise before signing :
| Action | Credits / cost |
|---|---|
| Email lookup | 1 |
| Mobile / direct phone reveal (Pro+) | 1 |
| Export contact | Counted vs annual cap |
| Bulk lookup (Pro+) | 1 per row |
| Autopilot run | 10/25 active (Pro/Ultimate) |
| API call (Ultimate) | Per call |
The ✅ markers are bundled / free. The ⚠️ markers are the line items that compound the bill - watch these closely when sizing your plan.

RocketReach earns its place when :
- You need email + phone reveals on a 700M+ contact database with predictable monthly cost (not per-credit)
- Your annual lookup volume is < 120K (= 10K/mo cap) and exports < 20K/year
- You want CRM-native sync (HubSpot, Salesforce, Outreach, Salesloft) bundled in one tool
It doesn't earn its place when :
- You need > 10K lookups/mo — forced into Enterprise sales conversation (~$6K/year+)
- You're SMB on Essentials and just realized phone reveals are blocked — Apollo Free (10K credits/mo, all reveals) is cheaper to start
- You don't want a 12-month annual commit to get the headline pricing
Why teams pick Derrick instead :
- You live in Google Sheets and don't want yet another web app for the data layer
- You want $10/mo flat with unlimited rows enriched (no 'unlimited but actually 10K' caveat)
- You want monthly billing with no annual lock-in to test the platform
For a team of 2-5 people, expect between $166/month (Team Pro) and $1,035/month (Team Ultimate) depending on number of seats. Team plans are billed annually only.
For example, a team of 3 sales reps on Team Pro would cost: $83 × 3 users = $249/month billed annually ($2,988/year).
In comparison, Derrick offers a shared credit model: a team of 3 people can use the SMALL+ plan (€20/month) or MEDIUM plan (€47.50/month) with a common credit pool, 5x to 10x cheaper than RocketReach Team.
Yes, RocketReach offers 5 free lookups upon signup, no credit card required. This allows testing the interface and data quality before subscribing to a paid plan.
However, 5 lookups are quickly exhausted to truly evaluate the tool. In comparison, Derrick offers a FREE plan with 200 credits/month (40 LinkedIn enrichments or 200 email verifications), allowing continuous personal use without paying.
Yes, RocketReach lookups and exports reset every month (monthly plans) or every year (annual plans). There is no rollover: if you only use 2,000 of your 10,000 monthly lookups, the remaining 8,000 are lost.
This is a major difference with Derrick which offers unlimited rollover on all paid plans: your credits accumulate month over month, ideal for fluctuating needs (activity peaks some months, quiet others).
Theoretically yes, but with important limitations:
With annual commitment required to get competitive prices, you’re locked into a plan for 12 months in most cases. Derrick offers 100% monthly contracts without commitment, with ability to change plans or cancel anytime.
For 10,000 email lookups per month with RocketReach:
RocketReach Pro ($75/month annual):
Derrick:
Savings: Minimum €800/month ($1,200 RocketReach Enterprise vs €175 Derrick Scale)
RocketReach phone number reliability is average according to user feedback:
If phone finding is critical for your business, consider that RocketReach consumes 1 lookup per phone (unit cost around $0.0075 in Pro), while Derrick consumes 150 credits (cost €0.3375 in SMALL, €0.30 in SMALL+). Derrick phone data quality combines multiple sources (including RocketReach) to maximize success rate.
This is a frequent source of confusion among RocketReach users:
Real example: You do 10,000 email lookups in January on Pro plan. You want to export them to your CRM → ❌ Impossible, you only have 6,000 exports for the entire year, meaning 500/month.
Result: you must manually select which contacts to export, or pay for upgrade to Ultimate (2x more expensive).
Derrick doesn’t have this limitation: once a contact is enriched in your Google Sheet, it’s immediately available for export to any tool via CSV, API, or native integrations.
