8 Sales Navigator Scrapers Compared on Price and Account Risk

TL;DR

We priced one job on eight LinkedIn Sales Navigator scrapers: 10,000 leads, with work emails on 6,000. It costs about $50 to $499 before the seat, per each vendor's own pages.

• WizLeads, $99. Account-less mode keeps your LinkedIn session out of it.
• Apify actor, about $50. The lowest cost, on your cookie, built for engineers.
• Lobstr, $100, or $20 for profile URLs only. Cheap URL harvesting, splits once.
• Skrapp, $129. An email finder first, with a Sales Navigator extension.
• Scrupp, $169. The clearest price page, but it contradicts itself on the 2,500 cap.
• Vayne, $215 with email packs. Cheap extraction, emails sold apart.
• Evaboot, $299. A one-click export with a filter check, now priced for 10,000 leads.
• NioLeads, $499. A Chrome extension with a daily cap and no plan between $39 and $499.

It depends which constraint binds first. To keep your session out of the extraction, the WizLeads Sales Navigator scraper runs 10,000 leads with emails on 6,000 of them for $99 in account-less mode. The Apify actor costs about $50 but runs on your cookie. Evaboot costs $299 for the same job, per its pricing page.

Prices move fast here. Evaboot changed its plans twice in a month, and the Apify actor changed its billing on 3 September 2026, and again on 9 September, so older comparison posts quote rates that no longer exist.

What this ranking is based on

The ranking runs three tests.

Does your own LinkedIn session carry the extraction? This is the one structural difference. Most tools scrape Sales Navigator through an account of yours. WizLeads' account-less mode, available now, and Vayne's cookie-less mode, listed as on request, do not. Everything else is a pricing argument.

What does the job cost? The standard job is 10,000 leads, with a work email attached to 6,000 of them. That 60 percent find rate is our assumption. Each tool's credit rules are applied to the workload, and the price is the cheapest plan tier that covers it inside one month.

Does it get past 2,500 results without you doing it by hand? Sales Navigator stops paginating a people search at 100 pages and a company search at 1,000 results. Those ceilings are LinkedIn's, so the only question is who automates the workaround.

The ranking puts account exposure first, judged on the mode you can switch on yourself today, and the job's cost second, cheapest first. A find rate a vendor publishes is its own claim, and none we read gives a method. Our 1,000-lead enrichment benchmark measured verified-valid finds from 25.9 to 67.0 percent across seven providers, a 2.6x spread.

The top five Google results for this query are Evaboot's homepage, a Reddit thread, a free Chrome extension, the Apify actor and a Datablist how-to.

The eight scrapers, compared

The Apify actor is the cheapest for this job, and it runs on your session. The last column is the job price divided by ten.

Account exposure is an architecture question

Vendors make safety claims, and none of the pages we read publishes a restriction rate, WizLeads' included.

Take the free extension that ranks third: it is version 1.0, last updated 2 September 2024, rated 3.1 out of 5 from 7 ratings and published by an individual with a Gmail contact address, per its Chrome Web Store listing. It scrapes names, titles, locations and companies and lets you download them as a CSV file. Like any extension, it runs in your session.

You can check where each request comes from, which sorts the tools into three classes.

Your browser is the client. Skrapp and NioLeads each ship a Sales Navigator scraper Chrome extension that works from your logged-in LinkedIn session, the setup our guide to LinkedIn scraping setups maps out, so the account making every request is yours. LinkedIn's help page says "we don't permit the use of any third party software, including 'crawlers', bots, browser plug-ins, or browser extensions that scrape, modify the appearance of, or automate activity on LinkedIn's website".

A server holds your cookie. Evaboot, Scrupp, Lobstr, Vayne in its standard mode and the Apify actor take your LinkedIn session cookie and run the extraction server-side. Evaboot and Scrupp capture it through a Chrome extension. Closing your browser feels safer, but the cookie still authenticates as you until it expires or you sign out of all sessions. The Apify actor has you paste the cookie into a form field, which is the same thing with the wrapper removed.

Nothing of yours is in the path. WizLeads offers account-less extraction now. Vayne's scraper page describes a cookie-less mode, which its pricing page lists as on request, so WizLeads is not the only tool with the idea. Here no session of yours is throttled, because no account of yours made a request.

The 2,500 problem, and what actually solves it

Sales Navigator shows 100 pages of a people search, about 2,500 results, then stops. Company search stops at 1,000. Evaboot's pricing FAQ states both numbers and blames LinkedIn.

Splitting is the only answer, and most advice stops at "split by filter", which is where the work starts. The sub-searches have to partition the original cleanly, so the axis has to be mutually exclusive. Headcount bands do this, since a company sits in exactly one. Geography works if the regions do not nest, and so does years in current role. Seniority and keyword filters do not, because a VP of Sales Operations lands in two buckets and gets exported twice.

Add the sub-search counts and reconcile them with the original before you run anything. A gap means you dropped a segment. An overshoot means you are about to pay for duplicates.

Three tools split for you, and they split differently. Lobstr's Split Search is a toggle inside the scraper. It divides the search along one dimension, such as seniority, function or industry, and does not recurse. Lobstr's product page says it reaches "up to 50,000 leads", but Lobstr's help page says a bucket still over 2,500 is paged to the cap and the rest is missed.

WizLeads' Smart Link Splitting checks the lead count and splits the link into chunks of 2,000 results or less, so you never lose results past the cap. Vayne's feature table lists automatic splitting above 2,500 profiles.

Scrupp contradicts itself, so we count it as manual. Its homepage says "We don't" cap a search, but its pricing FAQ says to split large searches yourself. Every other tool here leaves splitting to you, once per territory.

The eight scrapers

Every entry fills the same four slots. Price ladders are shortened to the entry tier, the tier that covers the job and the top.

1. WizLeads

Cloud extraction with no extension and no cookie to hand over, available now.

Your account. Account-less mode runs on WizLeads' infrastructure. No credentials, cookie, session or seat of yours is involved, but you still need Sales Navigator access to build the search URL. It costs 2 credits per lead against 1 when you connect an account, which is the price of the isolation. Connected mode runs on your own account, which LinkedIn's rule on automation covers.

Past 2,500. Smart Link Splitting cuts an oversized search into chunks of 2,000 results or less. It needs the Agency plan or above, so the entry tier does not have it. In the New Task panel it is one toggle, shown here switched on beside the account-less and email options.

Emails. Enrichment and verification run in one pass at 3 credits per email found, with nothing charged for a miss. In our enrichment benchmark WizLeads returned 670 verified-valid emails from 1,000 B2B leads. The CSV has 42 columns per lead, and a REST API is available.

Price and fit. Freelancer is $39 for 10,000 credits, Agency $99 for 40,000, Cartel $199 for 100,000 and Kingpin $499 for 300,000, with quarterly billing saving 25 percent. The free tier is 500 credits, once. With emails on 6,000 leads, the job takes 38,000 credits (10,000 leads at 2, plus 6,000 emails at 3), which lands on Agency at $99. Agency covers it only up to 6,666 emails found, a 66.7 percent find rate. At the 67.0 percent our benchmark measured, the job needs 40,100 credits, 100 past Agency's 40,000. Cartel at $199 covers it, but a top-up is cheaper: top-ups cost $5 per 1,000 credits, at least 1,000 per purchase, so the job is $104 in all. Five thousand leads finish in 15 to 20 minutes. WizLeads holds 3 credits per row while emails are found, so a 10,000-lead run needs up to 50,000 credits on hand, and on Agency you run it in batches. It suits agencies, and anyone whose LinkedIn account is worth more than the list.

2. Apify Sales Navigator actor

A marketplace actor with no interface and no support desk, in exchange for the lowest rate here.

Your account. Step three of its own instructions is to configure cookies, so you paste your session token into a form. It says nothing about what happens if LinkedIn detects the scraping.

Past 2,500. Not addressed. You split by hand, or use the peopleFilters inputs, which take company, title and region names instead of a search URL.

Emails. Returned on deep scrape "when available", with no find rate and no verification step, so treat them as unverified.

Price and fit. Since 9 September a result costs $0.005 on every Apify plan, the free one included, so 10,000 results is $50 of usage. A start fee of $0.0005 applies on paid plans and $0.005 on Free. Apify's platform plans start free, with $5 of usage. It suits engineers, since the support route is the developer's personal Gmail address.

3. Lobstr

The cheapest way of the eight to get profile URLs out, with emails billed at 9 credits each.

Your account. A Chrome extension syncs your session, and the scrape runs server-side. Its product page allows 25,000 profiles a day per account from search pages.

Past 2,500. Split Search, covered above, is a setting in the scraper. It splits once and misses whatever is left in an oversized bucket.

Emails. Enrichment costs 9 credits per lead on top of the 1-credit scrape, charged only when an email is found and validated. The product page promises "97%+ deliverability" on valid addresses, with no published test. This scraper handles lead searches only, so it cannot run company searches.

Price and fit. On Lobstr's pricing page, Free is 100 credits a month with exports capped at 30 rows per request, Starter is $20 for 10,000, Pro $100 for 100,000 and Team $500 for a million. Credits do not roll over, which is the sharpest thing to hold against it. The job is 64,000 credits and lands on Pro at $100. Profiles alone are Starter at $20, the cheapest line on this page. It suits URL harvesting where you already own an enrichment stack.

4. Skrapp

An email finder first, with a Sales Navigator export attached, and the credit model reflects that.

Your account. The Chrome extension runs inside your logged-in session across LinkedIn Basic, Sales Navigator and Recruiter.

Past 2,500. We found no splitter among Skrapp's features, so plan to split by hand. Its LinkedIn page says one export holds "up to 2,500 emails per operation".

Emails. Credits are email credits: one per address found for the first time, nothing for a miss, per its API docs. Skrapp contradicts itself on catch-alls. Its Fair Credit Policy tooltip says they are free, while its pricing FAQ and API docs say valid and catch-all results are charged. Budget for them being billed.

Price and fit. Skrapp's pricing page shows Free at 50 credits, then $39 for 2,000, $129 for 10,000 and up to $1,499 for 500,000, with annual billing 25 percent off. Six thousand emails needs the 10,000 tier at $129.

5. Scrupp

The clearest pricing page of the eight, and one of three competitors here publishing its own comparison (Lobstr and Vayne are the others), each with a thin method.

Your account. The extension reads your LinkedIn or Apollo cookies, then runs the scrape in the cloud. Its FAQ says throttling and rate limiting reduce the risk, not remove it, which is more candid than most of this search.

Past 2,500. Scrupp says two things. Its homepage and store listing claim exports past the cap, with auto-splitting. Its pricing FAQ says Sales Navigator allows up to 2,500 and tells you to split large searches yourself. Plan on 2,500 until you have tested it.

Emails. One credit per contact, plus one per verified work email and two per phone delivered. Its homepage claims a "36% Email find rate", having dropped the 65 percent figure it carried before. Its comparison table is footnoted to one 500-lead search on one day, with no raw data.

Price and fit. Scrupp's price page shows Starter at $29 for 1,000 credits, $99 for 10,000, $169 for 20,000 and up to $499 for 100,000, with 25 percent off yearly. Free is 100 credits a month, with no card. The job is 16,000 credits, which overshoots the 10,000 tier onto 20,000 at $169, or $203 as a one-time pack that never expires.

6. Vayne

Cheap extraction with emails sold as separate packs, and two of its own pages disagreeing about the cookie-less mode.

Your account. Cookie-synced today. Its scraper page says Vayne's cookie-less mode needs no LinkedIn login, cookie or Sales Navigator seat, at 2 credits per delivered profile, while its pricing page lists that mode as "on request". The seat splits the same way: Vayne's FAQ says it only works with a paid Sales Navigator account.

Past 2,500. The feature table lists automatic splitting of queries above 2,500 profiles on every paid tier.

Emails. Emails come only from enrichment credits bought on top of a plan, the free one included. Vayne claims up to 90 percent of emails found, from an internal benchmark with no sample size.

Price and fit. On Vayne's pricing page, Free is 200 leads, and extraction runs $29 for 10,000 profiles a month, up to $159 for 100,000. Enrichment credits are not included in any plan. Packs run $37 for 1,000 emails, $149 for 5,000 and $289 for 10,000, each valid 30 days, and misses are refunded. The 6,000 emails take a $149 and a $37 pack, on top of $29 of extraction on Freelance. That is $215 in all, with the enrichment as the real cost.

7. Evaboot

The default answer on this search, since its homepage ranks first for this query, and its ladder now gives a 10,000-lead job a published price.

Your account. Evaboot's extension captures your cookie, and every export runs through your own logged-in session. Its pricing FAQ requires an active seat.

Past 2,500. The FAQ blames LinkedIn for the ceiling and tells you to split by headcount, geography or industry. That is correct advice, and manual work. Evaboot also caps exports at 2,500 leads per 24 hours per Sales Navigator account, which it calls "not a plan restriction" and says protects your LinkedIn account, so 10,000 leads take four days on one seat.

Emails. The verified email is included in the one credit per exported lead, and a lead with no email found still costs one credit, so the 10,000-lead job costs the same at any find rate. If you need 10,000 emails instead, the $299 stop covers it only at a find rate of 66.7 percent or better. At the 60 percent low end of the 60 to 80 percent discovery rate Evaboot's email-finder page claims, that job is Custom. Its filter-matching cleanup flags rows that do not match your Sales Navigator filters, and we found no equivalent on the other seven tools' pages.

Price and fit. Evaboot's pricing page shows Starter at $9 a month for 100 credits and Grow at $29 for 400. Scale starts at $49 for 1,000 and steps to $99 for 3,000, $149 for 6,000 and $299 for 15,000. Enterprise is Custom, for higher volumes. The 10,000-lead job lands on the $299 stop, which is $29.90 per 1,000 leads, and a 2,500-lead job is $99. Evaboot publishes no free credit amount and repriced twice in a month, so check before you buy. It is worth it up to 15,000 leads a month if you want a one-click export. Past that, price the alternatives.

8. NioLeads

The widest pricing gap on this list, attached to the clearest wording about a daily cap.

Your account. A Chrome extension running in your session. Its FAQ caps exports at 2,500 leads per 24 hours per Sales Navigator account. Evaboot and NioLeads both cap at 2,500 a day and both say the cap protects your account. NioLeads' FAQ adds that the tool will not let you exceed it, because doing so may put the account at risk of a ban.

Past 2,500. NioLeads states its cap per day. It exports search results, saved lead lists, system-generated lists and LinkedIn group members, which we found on no other tool's pages here.

Emails. One credit per email found, and leads without emails cost nothing, so the scrape itself is free.

Price and fit. NioLeads' pricing page shows Free at 30 credits, Starter $29 for 500, Basic $39 for 1,000, then straight to Enterprise at $499 for 50,000. Past 1,000 emails a month the price jumps from $39 to $499, and the job costs $499. It is sensible under 1,000 emails a month and unusable above it.

Two that rank but are not on the list

PhantomBuster and Wiza both surface on this search, and both fail the criterion. PhantomBuster is an automation platform with a Sales Navigator export inside it, priced on execution hours and email credits, with no price per lead.

Wiza no longer exports Sales Navigator. Its help centre says exporting from search pages, lead lists and account lists "is no longer available" on any plan since 19 August 2026.

If you only want profile URLs

Some buyers want nothing but the profile URLs. Strip the enrichment and any export tool here is doing one job: 10,000 profile exports. Lobstr runs it for $20 on Starter and Vayne for $29 on Freelance. WizLeads is $39 with a connected account (LinkedIn's rule on automation applies) or $99 account-less. The Apify actor costs $50 in platform usage and Scrupp $99. Evaboot is $299 either way, because the email is inside the lead credit. Skrapp meters only email credits, so this comparison does not fit it.

The bill nobody puts in the comparison

In their standard mode, seven of these eight tools run on a live Sales Navigator seat. WizLeads account-less runs without one, but building the search URL still takes Sales Navigator access. LinkedIn's compare-plans page lists Core at $119.99 a month and Advanced at $159.99.

Against a $20 Lobstr plan the Core seat costs 6.0 times as much, and the pair is $139.99 a month. If you already pay for Sales Navigator, the seat is sunk and the scraper price is the whole decision. If you are buying the seat only to feed a scraper, price the pair.

How to choose

Pick on the constraint that binds for you.

If your LinkedIn account is the asset, take an account-less route and pay the premium for it. If price per profile dominates and the seat already exists, Lobstr at $20 and Vayne at $29 for 10,000 profiles are the two cheapest published numbers here. If you are wiring this into a pipeline, the Apify actor and a REST API beat any interface. If you export up to 15,000 leads a month and want it to be boring, Evaboot earns its price.

Run one real list through a tool before you buy a year of it. WizLeads gives you the 10,000-credit plan for $1 in the first month.
