# MixRank alternatives in 2026: a price on the page, from 5¢ a row

Compared on Nov 12, 2026. The page: https://specstream.ai/alternatives/mixrank

MixRank sells bulk feeds of company, people, job, web technology and app data, delivered into your warehouse. It publishes no rate card: the price and an API key come after a call, and there is no self serve signup yet.

SpecStream is the live web data engine for teams and agents. Describe the companies or people in plain words, with any condition and field, and get each match as a row at 5¢, 15¢ or $1. Source URL and read time on every value.

[Get an API key](https://specstream.ai/signup?src=alternatives-mixrank&utm_source=alternatives-md&utm_campaign=mixrank&returnTo=%2Fworkspace%2Fagents%3Ftab%3Dkeys) New accounts get $10 of credit, no card.

## SpecStream and MixRank side by side

| | SpecStream | MixRank |
|---|---|---|
| How you start | Sign up and make an API key under Agents & API in the workspace. $10 of credit, no card | A call with the team. There is no self serve signup yet, and access is set up for your use case |
| Published price | A delivered row: 5¢, 15¢ or $1 by how much the row needs, plus 5¢ for an email and 15¢ for a phone. The same rate on every plan. Plans at $19, $99 or $499 a month turn their whole price into credit | No rate card. The price depends on coverage, refresh cadence and delivery format, and a call gives you the number |
| What you send | The companies or people you want in plain words, with the conditions every row must meet and the fields to bring back | A scope agreed after the call, across six datasets that resolve to the same company |
| What you get back | Structured rows, one record per company or person, with facts from many sites joined. Source URL and read time on every value | Feeds from its index: 120M+ companies, 1.20B people profiles, 1.8B job postings, 160M domains with 2,700 technologies, 24M apps and 268M+ developers |
| Trying it | $10 of credit is up to 200 rows at 5¢, and pricing a request spends nothing | A sample after the first call, then an extensive trial. Scope, pricing and terms come after the trial |
| The cost cap before a run | The most a run can cost, quoted before it starts. Nothing runs until you approve it, and there are no automatic overages | Terms are set per contract, after the trial |
| Fresh data | Read from the live web when the run happens. Save the request and it reruns hourly to yearly. Each row comes back labeled changed, unchanged or no longer matching, and an unchanged row costs 1¢ | Refreshed hourly, with ten years of history on people and companies |
| Where the data goes | Google Sheets, Excel, Airtable, Notion, monday.com, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Attio, Slack, Teams, Zapier, Make, n8n and signed webhooks | API, flat file, or a share into Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift or Postgres |
| MCP and API | MCP server, REST API, Python and TypeScript SDKs, a CLI and A2A. An agent can buy one request with no account, by card or in USDC | An API, with access set up after a call |

## Why data and product teams choose SpecStream over MixRank

### The price is on the page

MixRank does not publish a rate card, and an API key comes after a call. SpecStream's rates are on [pricing](https://specstream.ai/pricing?utm_source=alternatives&utm_campaign=mixrank): 5¢, 15¢ or $1 a delivered row by how much the row needs, plus 5¢ for an email and 15¢ for a phone. You can make a key, price a request and run it today, with $10 of credit and no card.

### Companies by the tools they run, seen today

A SpecStream request can join the technology a company runs with what it hires for and who leads the team: "B2B software companies in the United States that use Snowflake and are hiring data engineers, with the headcount, the open role and the head of data for each".

For the technology part, SpecStream reads each company's website and DNS records when you ask and keeps the ones that run the tool, with the script or record it was seen in. See [companies that use a tool](https://specstream.ai/for/companies-that-use-a-tool?utm_source=alternatives&utm_campaign=mixrank). A row that fails one condition is not delivered and not billed.

### The rows you need, without a feed to load

A bulk feed sends the whole index to your warehouse, where your team filters it. A SpecStream request returns only the rows that meet your conditions, each one charged once. Duplicates, rows you already own and rows a page contradicts are not charged, and a run that finds nothing costs nothing.

### Every run has a maximum you approve

Every request gets a quote of the most it can cost, and pricing a request spends nothing. Nothing runs until you approve the quote, the charge never goes past it, and what the run does not use goes back to your balance. An API key carries its own limits: total, per run and monthly.

Agents connect to `https://api.specstream.ai/mcp` with OAuth or an API key, and your team uses the workspace, from one balance.

### Rows that stay up to date

Save the request and it reruns hourly to yearly. Each row comes back labeled changed, unchanged or no longer matching. A changed or new row costs half its rate and an unchanged row 1¢, and new matches arrive in Slack, email, a sheet, a CRM or a signed webhook. US funding rounds, layoffs and new executives are on [signals](https://specstream.ai/signals?utm_source=alternatives&utm_campaign=mixrank).

### The most accurate web search API, on the same account

The same key runs the Search API. On SimpleQA Verified it scores 97.9 F-score on all 1,000 official questions, 978 of them correct. On WideSearch it scores 64.0 item F1 and 43.4 row F1 on all 200 official tasks. The Extract API scores 0.908 F1 on WCXB. The scores and method are on [benchmarks](https://specstream.ai/benchmarks?utm_source=alternatives&utm_campaign=mixrank).

The Search API costs $5 per 1,000 searches of up to 10 results, and $1 per 1,000 on the fast tier. The Extract API reads pages at $0.80 per 1,000, and a page with no text is not charged.

## Other MixRank alternatives

### SpecStream

The live web data engine for teams and agents. One request in plain words, through the API, MCP or the workspace, returns every company or person that meets your conditions as a row, at 5¢, 15¢ or $1 a delivered row, plus 5¢ for an email and 15¢ for a phone. New accounts get $10 of credit, no card.

### Crustdata

A B2B data API billed in credits: 0.03 a search result, 1 to 9 a person and from 2 a company, with $20 in free credits and enterprise plans from four figures a month. SpecStream quotes each run in dollars before it starts.

### BlitzAPI

A B2B data API with companies searchable by tech stack, on plans of $99 a month for 200,000 records and $499 for 5,000,000. SpecStream has no monthly allowance to size: you pay for the rows delivered.

### Coresignal

### People Data Labs

A person data API whose Pro plan starts at $98 a month for 350 credits. On SpecStream the person and the company facts come in one row, at the same rate on every plan. See [People Data Labs alternatives](https://specstream.ai/alternatives/people-data-labs?utm_source=alternatives&utm_campaign=mixrank).

## How to switch

Write the companies or people you want in plain words, in place of the filters you send today. Sign up and you get $10 of credit, no card. At 5¢ a row, that is up to 200 rows.

Or send the request from code. This call spends nothing: the `402` reply shows how SpecStream read the request, the columns and the most it can cost.

```
curl -i https://api.specstream.ai/v1/agent/lists \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"request": "B2B software companies in the United States that use Snowflake and are hiring data engineers, with the headcount, the open role and the head of data for each", "count": 25}'
```

Approve that maximum by card through Stripe's Link agent wallet, or in USDC on Base, Arbitrum or Polygon, and you pay for the rows found. On an account, your agent uses the MCP server at `https://api.specstream.ai/mcp` and your team uses the workspace, from the same balance. Need company records by the field? See [company data API](https://specstream.ai/company-data-api?utm_source=alternatives&utm_campaign=mixrank).
