How to switch from Snov.io

Write the accounts you want in plain words, or import the contacts you exported from Snov.io, up to 20,000 rows, and SpecStream fills in or checks each row. 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": "Shopify agencies in the US and Canada with 10 to 100 employees, with the founder, the head of sales and a work email 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.

What is the best Snov.io alternative?

The rows land in HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Attio or your sheet, and stay up to date on your schedule.
What happens to my Snov.io data if I stop paying?
Snov.io's terms say it can delete uploaded data after 90 days without a renewed subscription. On SpecStream the rows you bought stay yours, and rows you already own are never charged again.
Can SpecStream fill in a list I already have?
Yes, up to 20,000 rows from a CSV, Excel file, Google Sheet or Airtable base. Importing is free. Each row that matches your request pays its row rate, and a row that does not match costs a 5¢ check.
Does SpecStream have an API?
Yes. The Search API costs $5 per 1,000 searches of up to 10 results, the Extract API $0.80 per 1,000 pages, and Deep Search returns rows at 5¢, 15¢ or $1 each. All three run through the REST API, the Python and TypeScript SDKs, the CLI and the MCP server at https://api.specstream.ai/mcp. The docs start at specstream.ai/docs/api.
How accurate is SpecStream?
SpecStream's Search API scores 97.9 F-score on all 1,000 official SimpleQA Verified questions (978 correct), and 64.0 item F1 and 43.4 row F1 on all 200 official WideSearch tasks. It is the most accurate web search API in the world, and the scores and method are on benchmarks. In a row, each email says whether a page printed it, and a likely one is labeled.
