Seamless.AI
Seamless.AI · Ranked #13 of 19 in Data Enrichment APIs
Sales-prospecting platform with a modern async public API, OpenAPI specs and a 57-tool MCP server, but API-plan eligibility is unclear in public sources and Pro/Enterprise pricing is sales-led.
Prospecting teams wanting UI plus API and MCP
Overview
Seamless.AI (now branded Seamless) is a sales-prospecting platform built around a contact and company database, a Chrome extension, lists, and outreach features. Its public API at docs.seamless.ai supports Search companies/contacts and Research (enrichment) with polling or webhook delivery, API-key or OAuth authentication, v1 and v2 references covering contacts, companies, templates, tasks, campaigns, email and call logging, OpenAPI specs in YAML and JSON, a Postman collection, and an MCP server with 57 tools documented for Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and ChatGPT.
Documentation is strong for a vendor of this type: an llms.txt index, use-case guides (CRM sync, lead-list enrichment, webhooks, agent workflows) and a rate-limits-and-credits page (60 requests/minute per endpoint, shared across the org; search costs 1 credit per 10 results, research costs 1 credit per record, polling free). Gaps noted by a third-party API report are thin webhook-signature documentation and restrictive 60/min limits for bulk jobs; no official language SDKs were found.
Accessibility evidence conflicts. The docs say the Public API menu appears only if the account has Public API access. A third-party API report card says the API is self-serve on all plans including free, whereas other third-party pricing articles say API access is an Enterprise add-on and that the public pricing page now shows only Free, Pro (contact sales) and Enterprise. Because the primary docs do not state plan eligibility, accessibility is scored conservatively. Reputation is weak on Trustpilot (1.2/5, 311 reviews; auto-renewal, cancellation and billing complaints, no replies from the vendor) while G2 is about 4.4/5, with contact-data accuracy rated 7.6/10 and reviewers citing 15-25% bounce rates. The official status page is seamlessaistatus.com; Pingoru recorded no incidents in 90 days across 3 services.
How this score is derived
The APIbenchmarks Index is a weighted sum of four dimensions, each scored on an absolute 0–100 reference scale. See the methodology for every mapping.
| Dimension | Score | Weight | Contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| Documentation & DXdocs.seamless.ai provides API-key and OAuth auth, search/research/poll workflows, v1 and v2 references, OpenAPI YAML/JSON, Postman, an llms.txt index, a rate-limits-and-credits page and MCP install guides; a third-party report notes thin webhook-signature docs. | 76 | 30% | 22.8 |
| ReliabilityStatus page at seamlessaistatus.com and Pingoru shows 0 incidents and 100% uptime over 90 days across 3 services, but that is a narrow window, there is no published SLA, and the API is async-only with a documented 60 req/min per-endpoint limit. | 74 | 25% | 18.5 |
| Ecosystem & SDKsMCP server with 57 tools across common AI clients, webhooks, OAuth, OpenAPI and Postman give good agent reach, but no official language SDKs were found and native integrations beyond the docs were not verified. | 68 | 25% | 17.0 |
| AccessibilityConflicting sources: docs only say the Public API menu appears if the account has access, one report says self-serve on every plan, others say Enterprise add-on; Pro and Enterprise are contact-sales, free credits are small, and Trustpilot shows 1.2/5 with auto-renewal and cancellation complaints, so scored conservatively. | 50 | 20% | 10.0 |
