Apollo vs LeadMagic
Choosing between Apollo and LeadMagic usually comes down to how each one deals with the addresses your list actually struggles with. Apollo is a per-seat sales platform with a large contact database and bundled verification. LeadMagic is an enrichment platform where verification shares one credit pool with mobile numbers, company data and job changes. Below we walk through how they price, what they do with catch-all addresses, and how accurate each claims to be, and we show where Giggal.ai lands on the same list so you have a third number to weigh.

How Apollo and LeadMagic handle catch-all
Apollo markets a seven-step process that distinguishes valid from invalid on catch-all at 91%. LeadMagic resolves catch-all addresses, and publishes its own benchmark data on how many it recovers. Catch-all domains accept mail for every name, so a normal check cannot tell a real mailbox from a dead one, and this is usually where a list quietly loses good contacts.
How Giggal.ai handles catch-all. Giggal.ai resolves catch-all addresses to a real deliverable or undeliverable result at 1.5 credits in a run, or 2 standalone.
Apollo vs LeadMagic pricing
Apollo is priced per user seat, with verification bundled rather than sold by volume. LeadMagic is sold by monthly plan, from $249/mo for 10,000 verifications a month. Both numbers come straight from each vendor's own pricing, so put them next to the volume you send each month.
How Giggal.ai prices it. Giggal.ai publishes a flat pay-as-you-go price, $9.90 at 10,000, $76 at 100,000 and $680 at a million, with credits that never expire.
