what is ZoomInfo?

Enterprise B2B intelligence: contact + company database, intent signals, technographics, and workflow tools wrapped in an annual contract.

ZoomInfo is the enterprise B2B intelligence default. For a six-figure deal, you get the deepest contact database in the market, mature intent data (Bombora), technographics, and Salesforce-native workflows that an enterprise RevOps team can lean on. If you're selling into Fortune 5000 buyers and your procurement team needs SOC 2 and a DPA on every vendor, ZoomInfo earns its price tag.

what is seibs.co?

A portfolio of 35 vertical scrapers, billed per record.

seibs.co is 35 vertical scrapers that run on demand and bill per record. There's no contract, no minimum, no CSM, no Salesforce package. You get JSON out of an API and you pipe it into whatever you already use. The depth-of-record on a Fortune 500 CFO is not what ZoomInfo offers; the depth-of-record on an independent dentist by EHR or a Shopify store by app stack is much better.

when to pick which

Pick ZoomInfo if you're an enterprise team selling to enterprise buyers, your procurement requires the compliance kit, and you can fund a $15-50K annual commitment that pays back through one closed deal. Pick seibs.co if you need to test a vertical without an annual contract, if your buyers are local SMBs ZoomInfo doesn't cover well, or if you need exclusive raw records you control end to end. Both can coexist: enterprise teams often use ZoomInfo for named-account ABM and seibs.co for SMB territory expansion.

Where ZoomInfo is genuinely strong
  • Largest depth-of-record on enterprise contacts: org charts, direct dials, mobile numbers
  • Strong intent data (Bombora-backed) and technographics on mid-market and up
  • Mature enterprise workflows: Salesforce native, scoring, ABM playbooks
  • Compliance posture (SOC 2, GDPR, CCPA tooling) that procurement teams accept
  • Dedicated CSM and onboarding for the price
Where ZoomInfo can frustrate you
  • $15K+ annual minimum prices out solo operators, small agencies, and most SMBs
  • Annual contract lock-in; you commit before you know if it works for your motion
  • Per-seat caps + usage limits inside the contract create friction at quarter-end
  • Coverage of true SMBs (under 50 employees, local trades, independent practices) is shallower than the marketing suggests
  • Data is shared: every ZoomInfo customer is pulling from the same pool

actor / b2b-sales-triggersview ->

Intent on named accounts: hiring surge, funding rounds, press, exec changes, tech adoption, patents. Comparable to the ZoomInfo intent feed as raw records.

8-K classifier (M&A / exec / going-concern), Form 4 insider patterns, 13F position tracking, Form D startup raises. Buying-signal context ZoomInfo doesn't go deep on.

actor / shopify-store-discoveryview ->

Shopify stores by domain or fingerprint with 30+ app detection and revenue estimates. Better than ZoomInfo for D2C territory.

how the math actually works

Walked through with a real example.

A small RevOps team buying ZoomInfo Pro+ commits roughly $20,000 for the year. Inside the contract they get a per-seat license, a cap on exports (often 5,000-10,000 per year depending on plan), and an intent feed on their target accounts. Amortized, that's around $1.00 per usable contact-export at the cap, before the intent + workflow value. The same team using seibs.co for vertical lead lists would spend roughly $0.008 per enriched record. 10,000 records is $80, and there's no commitment if the vertical doesn't pan out. The honest framing: ZoomInfo is also paying for workflow, compliance, and intent; seibs.co isn't replacing all of that, only the raw data layer.

faq

The questions I get on this comparison.

Honest answers, including the cases where ZoomInfo is the right pick.

Is seibs.co a ZoomInfo replacement?

Only for the raw-data layer. ZoomInfo is a platform with intent, workflows, scoring, and Salesforce-native integration. seibs.co is an API that returns records. A lot of teams use both, with seibs.co covering verticals ZoomInfo is thin on.

What does ZoomInfo actually cost?

Pricing isn't public. Reported deals usually start around $15,000 per year for a small team and rise from there based on seats, export caps, intent, conversation intelligence, and engagement modules. Annual contracts are standard, with 12-36 month terms common. VERIFY: ZoomInfo doesn't publish a rate card, so any number is a market reference.

What does seibs.co cost in comparison?

Per-record: $0.004 base + $0.004 if an email is found + $0.007 if a premium signal (tech stack, license number) is detected. A typical enriched B2B record runs $0.008-$0.015. No contract.

Can seibs.co give me intent data?

The B2B Sales Triggers actor returns hiring surges, funding rounds, press mentions, exec changes, tech adoption, and patent filings on a target account list. It's narrower than ZoomInfo's Bombora-backed intent (which buys topic-level web signals), but it's directional intent that's actually useful for outbound.

What about compliance and procurement?

seibs.co runs on Apify, which carries its own compliance posture. We don't have a SOC 2 of our own. If your procurement team requires that on the data vendor specifically, ZoomInfo is the safer call. For most one-person and SMB teams this isn't the bottleneck.

Can I cancel ZoomInfo and move to seibs.co?

Honest answer: only if your use case is mostly list-building and you don't depend on the workflow + Salesforce integration. If you live inside ZoomInfo all day, ripping it out is a lateral move. If you only use it for monthly list pulls, you'd save five figures.
