PitchWhip vs Lusha
Lusha shows contact details on the LinkedIn profile, then stops: it has no dialler and no call brief, so the call happens in another tool. PitchWhip reveals the number in the same panel, gives you the brief and opener, and lets you call and log the outcome without leaving the profile.
Prices checked 9 October 2026; the profile rows 30 October 2026. Every Lusha detail comes from Lusha’s own pages; sources sit under the cells we re-checked and at the foot of the page.
Why Lusha looks like more for the money.
What you may hear: Lusha is the same price and gives me more numbers.
- On volume, that is true. Lusha Starter's 400 credits make up to 80 phone numbers a month, against PitchWhip's 50 reveals. If numbers are all you need, it is a fair reason to pick Lusha.
- A wrong number stays spent. Lusha's terms give no credits back for the quality of a record. PitchWhip gives the reveal back once a person checks a dead number. Neither charges for a miss.
- Then you still need a phone. Lusha has no dialler, so calls happen in another tool. A phone system such as Aircall starts at $40 a licence a month with a three-licence minimum. PitchWhip dials from the same panel, with calling minutes bought separately.
- And something to say. Lusha's extension has no call brief; it publishes a prompt to run in Claude instead. PitchWhip writes the brief, opener and likely objections beside the profile.
