Best For

Growth-stage B2B companies with enough customer data to build meaningful look-alike models for finding similar prospects at scale

Not Great For

Early-stage companies with fewer than 50 customers — you don't have enough data points for look-alike modeling to work

Pricing Comparison Note

Ocean pricing is credit-based, likely $200-800/mo depending on usage. Clay is $149-800/mo. Apollo is $49/user/mo. The value of look-alike modeling depends on having enough closed-won data to train the model — early-stage companies won't have enough signal.
