Transparent, honest pricing
CabinMind is the AI engine. For lead generation, you choose how much data quota you need and pay the API providers directly — no markups, no hidden costs, no bill shock.
Choose your scale
Same AI pipeline on every plan. The difference is whose API quota powers it and how many leads you need each month.
How CabinMind pricing works
CabinMind is the AI engine that builds your lead lists. Finding real emails and validating them requires two external data services. Rather than hiding their costs inside a bloated subscription, we let you pay them directly at their published rates. Complete transparency, no 5x markup.
Identifies target companies, generates lead lists, scores every contact on 8 signals, and orchestrates the full pipeline from ICP to export.
Always included in every plan
Searches company domains for real employee emails and LinkedIn profiles. Charges per domain search — your key means your quota, no hidden markup from us.
Starter: included · Pro/Scale/Agency: your own key
Validates every email for spam traps, hard bounces, and disposables before it reaches you. No bad emails in your outreach list — ever.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is BYOK ("Bring Your Own Key")?+
Two external services power the lead data: Hunter.io finds real email addresses at companies, and ZeroBounce checks those emails for spam traps, bounces, and invalid addresses. Both charge per search/validation. On Pro/Scale/Agency plans, you create your own account at those services, copy your API key, and paste it into your CabinMind dashboard under API Keys. CabinMind uses your key when running searches — so your quota and your spend are fully transparent. On Starter, we cover both for you (capped at 100 leads/mo).
Why not just bundle the API costs like Apollo or Clay?+
Apollo and Clay bundle API costs into their subscriptions and silently mark them up 3–10×. CabinMind keeps the charges separate so you see exactly what you pay for, can upgrade your API quota independently, and own your data. When you run more searches, we do not lose money — your quota is yours.
Which Hunter.io plan do I need?+
For Pro (500 leads/mo): Hunter Starter at $49/mo gives you exactly 500 domain searches. For Scale/Agency (unlimited runs): Hunter Growth at $99/mo gives 2,000 searches. Hunter free tier (25 searches/mo) is enough to test before committing.
Which ZeroBounce plan do I need?+
ZeroBounce charges per validation credit. For up to 500 leads/mo, the $16 pay-as-you-go pack (2,000 credits) is plenty. For high-volume: $25/mo (5,000 credits) or $49/mo (10,000 credits). Free tier = 100 credits/mo. On Starter and Pro plans we cover ZeroBounce for you.
What is the Campaign Builder?+
Campaign Builder is a built-in feature on all Lead Researcher plans. It has three parts: (1) ZeroBounce bulk validation — runs every email in your pipeline through ZeroBounce before you send, removing spam traps, bounces, and disposables to protect your sender reputation. (2) AI email sequences — picks any lead and generates a personalised 4-step cold email sequence (Day 0, 3, 7, 14) tailored to their pain points, buying signal, and ICP match. (3) Instantly.ai export — downloads a pre-formatted CSV with First Name, Last Name, Email, Company, Website, and a personalisation line ready to import directly into Instantly.ai campaigns.
Do I need an Instantly.ai account to use Campaign Builder?+
Instantly.ai ($37/mo) is the recommended cold email sending tool — it handles domain warmup, campaign scheduling, and reply detection. Campaign Builder exports the leads and writes the sequences; you import both into Instantly.ai to actually send. You can also paste the AI sequences into any other tool (Lemlist, Mailshake, Smartlead) — or even Gmail if you're just starting out.
+
No — subscribe first, then add your keys in your dashboard under API Keys. Your welcome email includes step-by-step setup instructions. Hunter and ZeroBounce both have free tiers so you can test the keys before upgrading to a paid plan.
What happens if I hit my Hunter quota mid-month?+
The agent falls back to AI-synthesised contacts with pattern emails. Those leads are clearly labelled 'AI pattern' vs. 'Hunter verified' in your dashboard. ZeroBounce validation still runs on whatever email is found.
How does this compare to Apollo or Clay?+
Apollo charges $99-$199/mo for bundled, often stale data with no visibility into per-lead cost. Clay charges $149-$800/mo. CabinMind uses live Hunter.io data (updated daily) plus ZeroBounce validation on every email, and shows you the exact 8 signals driving each lead score. Higher quality, full auditability, and you own your quota.
Can I upgrade from Starter to Pro later?+
Yes — upgrade anytime from your billing portal. Your saved ICP templates and lead history carry over to the new plan.
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes — all plans are month-to-month. Cancel from your billing portal with one click, no questions asked.
Do you offer agency or reseller pricing?+
The Agency plan ($1000/mo) is built for that — 5 seats, white-label reports, per-client ICP templates. Email info@devcabin.tech to discuss volume deals for higher seat counts.
