Lusha gets you one contact. TexAu gets you the pipeline.
Lusha's Chrome extension is the cleanest way to grab a single contact off LinkedIn. We respect that. But the moment you need 1,000 contacts enriched, scored, and pushed to a sequencer — on a schedule, every week, without someone clicking — Lusha runs out of room. TexAu starts there.
Where Lusha wins
The Chrome extension
For grabbing one contact off LinkedIn while you're already there, Lusha's extension is genuinely the smoothest UX in the category.
Simple pricing for individual users
Lusha's free + Pro tiers are straightforward and accessible. For an individual SDR or a founder doing solo outreach, the friction is low.
Compliance posture
Lusha has invested heavily in GDPR, CCPA, and ISO 27701 compliance. For European teams concerned about source-of-data legitimacy, Lusha's documentation is solid.
Three claims. Each one specific.
1. Pipelines, not point lookups
Lusha is built around looking up one contact at a time. TexAu is built around running a list — find 500 prospects, enrich all of them, verify, score, push to Smartlead, log to HubSpot — as a single pipeline.
2. 32-integration waterfall, not single-source
Lusha's data comes from Lusha. TexAu cascades 32 integrations per request and tells you which one delivered. Fill rate is materially higher because the union of 32 databases beats any single one.
3. It runs without you in the room
Lusha works when a person is looking at a profile. TexAu runs on cron and event triggers: re-enrich the stale rows every Monday, score the new ones, push the qualified ones to the sequencer. Lusha ships no scheduler, so every run is someone clicking.

Pricing math

| Line item | TexAu | Lusha |
|---|---|---|
| Entry model | Solo $99/mo, 50 free credits to start | Seat-based tiers with usage caps |

For an individual user looking up contacts in the browser, Lusha is competitive on cost. For a team running ongoing pipelines on a schedule, the per-contact economics flip toward TexAu — and the surface-area gap widens.
