Frequently asked questions.
QuestionsIs Leadistry cheaper than Cognism?
We cannot say for certain, because Cognism does not publish its prices: its pricing page asks you to talk to sales (cognism.com/pricing, 7 October 2026). Leadistry's prices are public: £29, £69 and £139 a month for 900, 2,400 and 6,000 leads. Cognism's packages include 5 seats, so they are built for teams.
Does Leadistry send the emails?
Yes. The AI writes the first email to each company, using its dated reason, and it goes from your own Gmail, Outlook or other mailbox, starting at 5 a day while the mailbox warms up. You approve each email, or switch on Autopilot. Cognism's pricing page lists data, AI research and CRM enrichment, and no sending.
Why does Leadistry not give mobile numbers?
Leadistry is email only. Under PECR, unsolicited marketing calls to numbers registered with the TPS or CTPS are not allowed, so every number has to be screened before a call. We give a checked email instead. If calling is how you sell, Cognism's mobile data is a strength.
