Questions, answered.
The short honest version of how leadhoundapi works. Anything else: [email protected]
What exactly is a market?
One trade in one city, like Roofers × Dallas. Your plan gives you slots; fill them with any pairs, in any mix: five trades in one city, one trade across five cities, or anything in between. You can redraw your pairs each coverage cycle.
Do I have to pick my markets before buying?
No. Build your territory on the pricing page and your picks ride along to checkout, or claim a plan first and pick afterward in the dashboard. Scanning a new pair claims a slot automatically too. Change your pairs whenever you like; changes take effect at the next cycle.
Where does the data come from?
Public business data and reviews via licensed APIs. No scrapers. Signals, not guarantees.
How fresh are the leads?
Your markets refresh automatically on a rolling 14-day cycle, and you can rescan any market on demand whenever you want a fresh sweep. Heavy rescanning is metered by your plan’s monthly credits.
Is my market exclusive?
No. The signals are public; your edge is speed and the ready-to-send opener.
Can I cancel or get a refund?
Cancel any time and billing stops at the period end. Month one is refunded in full if you never used the service.
Is it legal to use for outreach?
Yes, as research. Outputs are public-signal evidence for your own outreach; how you contact businesses stays subject to outreach laws like CAN-SPAM and TCPA.
Can more markets be added without changing plans?
Yes: additional markets are $25/mo each. Bigger jumps are usually cheaper at the next tier. Want more than Scale? Email [email protected]
