The best Chrome extensions to find contact data from LinkedIn (2026)
Ten LinkedIn email finder extensions compared on what they return, what the free tier really gives you, and what a lookup costs. Emails, phone numbers, verification, and where each one fits.

LinkedIn tells you who someone is. It does not tell you how to reach them. A Chrome extension that shows contact details beside the profile you are looking at closes that gap, and there are now more than a dozen of them. They differ in three ways that matter: what they return (email only, or email and phone number), whether the result is verified before you pay for it, and what happens to the contact after you reveal it.
This guide compares ten of them, including our own. The pricing and free tiers below are what each vendor published at the time of writing in September 2026. They change often, so check the vendor's pricing page before you commit.
What a LinkedIn email finder extension actually does
Every tool in this category works the same way on the surface. You install the extension, open a LinkedIn profile, and click a button. The extension reads the name and company from the page, looks the person up, and shows an email address, sometimes a phone number, in a panel or sidebar. Most also let you save the contact to a list inside the vendor's app.
Under the surface, the differences are about data and verification. Some extensions guess an address from the company's email pattern and show it to you unverified. Some search a single database. Some query several providers and verify the result with the mail server before showing it. That last approach costs the vendor more, so watch for it in the pricing model: tools that only charge you when a verified result comes back are usually the ones doing the work.
How to compare them
Before the list, the five questions to ask of any extension:
Does it return phone numbers, or only emails? Many tools are email-only. Of those that offer mobile numbers, several cap them at a handful per month or price them at five times the cost of an email.
Is the email verified before you pay? A found address that bounces costs you a credit and a piece of sender reputation.
What is the free tier? Free credits range from 5 to 100 a month. Some free tiers are one-time allowances, not monthly.
Where does the contact go next? A list, a CRM, a sequence, or just your clipboard.
Does it work outside LinkedIn? Company websites, LinkedIn company pages, and Sales Navigator are the usual extras.
1. LeadVector
LeadVector's Chrome extension finds a verified work email and a direct mobile phone number for the person on any LinkedIn profile or company website. Every lookup searches multiple data providers in real time and verifies the email against the mail server before it is shown. A credit is used only when a verified email or a found number comes back.
The difference from most tools on this list is what happens after the reveal. The contact can be saved, added to a list, or added straight to a campaign sequence from the same panel, because the extension shares one account with the LeadVector app, API, and CLI. Replies land in Unibox with the rest of the campaign.
Free tier: free to install, free plan with monthly credits, no card. Paid: plans from $29 a month, credits shared across the extension, app, API, and CLI. Best for: teams that want the reveal and the outreach in one tool, and anyone who needs mobile numbers without a separate add-on.
2. GetProspect
GetProspect is one of the most installed LinkedIn email finders, and its pitch is valid-only billing: a credit is used only when a verified email is returned. It works on profiles, LinkedIn search results, Sales Navigator, and groups, with bulk saving across pages of results. Third-party reviews note that phone number credits are limited to a small monthly allowance on standard plans.
Free tier: 50 valid emails a month. Paid: from $49 a month for 1,000 emails. Best for: email-first prospecting with bulk extraction from LinkedIn search.
3. Snov.io LI Prospect Finder
Snov.io's extension collects leads from LinkedIn profiles and search pages into the Snov.io platform, which also includes drip campaigns and a lightweight CRM. It is a good fit if you want to stay inside one mid-priced platform.
Free tier: 50 credits a month. Paid: from about $30 a month. Best for: budget-conscious teams that also want a simple sequencer.
4. LeadLeaper
LeadLeaper focuses on LinkedIn Premium and Sales Navigator, returns emails and phone numbers, detects duplicate leads, and bundles a small leads CRM with email engagement. It does not modify the LinkedIn interface, which some users prefer.
Free tier: around 100 credits a month. Paid: from about $39 to $49 a month. Best for: Sales Navigator users who want bulk capture without changing how LinkedIn looks.
5. Lusha
Lusha's extension is the one most people name when they want phone numbers from LinkedIn. It reveals email and mobile in one click and is strongest on senior decision makers in North America. The trade-off is price: phone reveals cost several credits each, and the free tier is tiny.
Free tier: 5 credits a month. Paid: from roughly $36 per user a month on annual billing. Best for: enterprise sales teams calling VP-level buyers who can absorb the cost.
6. Kaspr
Kaspr is Lusha's European counterpart, with stronger coverage on EU contacts and both email and phone reveals from LinkedIn profiles. Reviewers report accuracy dropping on North American contacts.
Free tier: limited monthly phone and email credits. Paid: from about $49 a month. Best for: teams selling mainly into Europe.
7. Apollo.io
Apollo's extension captures emails from LinkedIn and pushes them into Apollo's own database and sequencer. It is the most feature-complete free option for teams that want finding and outreach in one place, at the cost of paying for a large platform if you only wanted the finder.
Free tier: free plan with limited exports. Paid: from $49 a month. Best for: teams standardising on Apollo end to end.
8. Hunter
Hunter is the oldest dedicated email finder. Its extension shows the email Hunter has for a profile, and its verifier is conservative, which means fewer bounces and a higher "not found" rate. It does not return phone numbers.
Free tier: 25 searches a month. Paid: from $34 a month. Best for: solo founders testing outbound who want a trustworthy free tier.
9. ContactOut
ContactOut is built for recruiters. Its sidebar returns work and personal emails plus phone numbers, integrates with LinkedIn Recruiter and applicant tracking systems, and is strongest on US technical talent.
Free tier: a small monthly allowance. Paid: from about $79 a month. Best for: recruiters sourcing candidates who need personal emails.
10. Wiza
Wiza's speciality is turning a Sales Navigator search into a clean CSV with emails attached, in one batch. It is less useful for one-at-a-time profile lookups.
Free tier: a one-time allowance. Paid: from $49 a month for 300 emails. Best for: exporting Sales Navigator lists in bulk.
Which one to pick
You want emails and mobile numbers in one panel, and the contact to go straight into outreach: LeadVector.
You want the cheapest reliable email-only finder: GetProspect or Hunter.
You want phone numbers for senior buyers and price is not the constraint: Lusha in North America, Kaspr in Europe.
You are a recruiter: ContactOut, or LeadVector if you also run outreach sequences.
You live in Sales Navigator and export lists: Wiza or LeadLeaper.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free Chrome extension to find contact details on LinkedIn?
Yes. Most extensions on this list are free to install and include a free tier. The useful ones give monthly credits rather than a one-time allowance: LeadVector, GetProspect, Snov.io, LeadLeaper, and Hunter all refill each month.
Which extension pulls both mobile numbers and work emails?
LeadVector, Lusha, Kaspr, LeadLeaper, and ContactOut return phone numbers. GetProspect, Hunter, and Wiza are email-first, with phone data limited or absent.
Is it safe for my LinkedIn account?
Extensions that read the profile you have open and look the person up elsewhere are the same as you reading the page. Tools that automate visiting hundreds of profiles or scraping search results in bulk are the ones LinkedIn's limits are designed to catch. If you use bulk capture, stay inside the daily limits the tool enforces.
How accurate are the emails?
Vendor accuracy claims are not comparable with each other. The practical test is to run fifty of your own target profiles through two or three tools in the same week and count the verified results. Tools that verify against the mail server before showing an address will have fewer results and fewer bounces.
