Hunter Discover is a prospecting feature available on all Standard all-in-one outreach plans, including the Free plan, that helps you find companies and decision-makers matching your ideal customer profile—even if you’re starting with no data at all.
Access to Discover is not included in Data Platform plans. Discover is designed for users who need an all-in-one workflow for company discovery, email finding, and outreach. Limited access to Discover is, however, available through the Hunter API for Data plans as well.
