No usage claims. Nobody has run this tool. The other tier is BENCH-TESTED, which means Andrew personally ran the tool on a stated date and cannot be bought at any price. Across the whole directory that count is 0. Vendor: [prospeo.io](https://prospeo.io) · entry id 01-prospeo · source 01-data-enrichment.md line 198 **What it does** A B2B contact database/lookup tool that finds verified work emails and mobile phone numbers for a given person or domain and returns basic firmographic data (headcount, industry, tech stack) for companies; also supports filtered people/company search. **AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it** No credible AI capability surfaced in sources reviewed. Core mechanism is database lookup, email-pattern generation, domain search, and SMTP-based verification - a plain enrichment/lookup tool, not an AI-driven one, despite the modern positioning common in this category. **RevOps role** Email/phone finder and person+company search layer, most often plugged into Clay waterfalls (Clay-managed account billed at 2 credits/enriched cell) or used directly as a fallback provider alongside other finders. **MCP server** - **Status bucket**: Official MCP - **Auth**: OAuth 2.0 for the hosted server (auto-handled by Claude.ai/Desktop via the MCP directory); local/self-hosted setup uses an API key via PROSPEO_API_KEY env var or X-KEY header - **Parsed URLs**: 1 found in the mcp_url field The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established on 2026-08-24 and has not been re-fetched since. mcp_status, verbatim from the file: official mcp_url, verbatim from the file: https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server - [https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server](https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server) **Access gate** - **Gate bucket**: Free to start - **Can a solo operator reach it**: Yes, without talking to anyone api_gate, verbatim from the file: free **API documentation** No documentation URL recorded. 263 of 293 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank. **GitHub health** Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build. The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale. A github.com URL already appears somewhere in this entry, which is a seed for that rail and not a measurement of repo health: - [https://github.com/Meerkats-Ai/prospeo-mcp-server](https://github.com/Meerkats-Ai/prospeo-mcp-server) - [https://github.com/orchidautomation/prospeo-mcp](https://github.com/orchidautomation/prospeo-mcp) - [https://github.com/prospeo-v2](https://github.com/prospeo-v2) - [https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server](https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server) **Jobs it can do** - [Search people by criteria](../jobs/search-people-by-criteria.md) - [Search companies by firmographics](../jobs/search-companies-by-firmographics.md) - [Enrich a company from a domain](../jobs/enrich-company-from-domain.md) - [Find a work email address](../jobs/find-work-email.md) - [Find a phone number](../jobs/find-phone-number.md) - [Verify an email is deliverable](../jobs/verify-email-deliverable.md) - [Detect a company's tech stack](../jobs/detect-technographics.md) A job tag means the vendor says the tool does this. It is not a test result, not proof the capability is reachable through the tool's MCP server, and not proof it is available on the gate this entry records. Tagged by machine-pass on 2026-08-25 against the closed 55 job vocabulary. 271 of 293 entries carry at least one tag; 827 tags are assigned in total. **Sources** - [https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server](https://github.com/prospeo-v2/prospeo-mcp-server) - [https://github.com/prospeo-v2](https://github.com/prospeo-v2) - [https://github.com/orchidautomation/prospeo-mcp](https://github.com/orchidautomation/prospeo-mcp) - [https://github.com/Meerkats-Ai/prospeo-mcp-server](https://github.com/Meerkats-Ai/prospeo-mcp-server) - [https://fullenrich.com/content/prospeo-pricing](https://fullenrich.com/content/prospeo-pricing) - [https://www.xpay.sh/saas-pricing/prospeo-io/](https://www.xpay.sh/saas-pricing/prospeo-io/) - [https://www.clay.com/integrations/data-provider/prospeo](https://www.clay.com/integrations/data-provider/prospeo) - [https://university.clay.com/docs/prospeo-integration-overview](https://university.clay.com/docs/prospeo-integration-overview) 8 source URLs.

Besides the official prospeo-v2 MCP repo, at least two unofficial community MCP wrappers exist (orchidautomation/prospeo-mcp, Meerkats-Ai/prospeo-mcp-server), both hitting the same public API. Pricing sources conflict slightly: most describe a self-serve free plan (100 credits/mo) plus paid plans from $39-49/mo, but one third-party source claimed the public pricing page pushes visitors to a sales-contact form - flagged as a discrepancy, not resolved. **Provenance** - **Entry id**: 01-prospeo - **Source file**: 01-data-enrichment.md - **Source line**: 198 - **Tier**: RESEARCHED - **last_checked**: 2026-08-24 - **Data baked**: 2026-08-25 Every field above is rendered from directory.json exactly as the build produced it.
