When each one wins.
The honest verdict · no fake winnerWhen UpLead is the better choice
Pick UpLead if you prospect outside the UK, where Leadistry has no data. Its model is contact-level: a large contact database, credits that buy verified emails and mobile direct dials, checks run at the moment of export, plus intent data and technographics on the higher plans. The one-week trial makes it cheap to test its coverage, and if you want someone else to run the campaigns, it offers that as a service.
When Leadistry is the better choice
Pick Leadistry if your market is UK companies. Leadistry reads the Companies House record directly, adds new companies as they are published, and gives each lead a dated reason to write, such as accounts coming due. The price works in your favour at small scale too: £39 a month buys 500 leads, each with a website we opened and a checked email, against a $99 entry plan. The first email is written and sent from your own mailbox.

Frequently asked questions.
QuestionsIs Leadistry cheaper than UpLead?
Yes, on the entry price. As published on uplead.com/pricing on 7 October 2026, Essentials is $99 a month for 170 credits ($74 a month billed annually), Plus is $199 a month for 400 credits, and Professional is custom-priced on annual billing only. A credit buys one contact for download or export. Leadistry is priced by the lead, with no seats: £39, £79 and £149 a month for 500, 1,500 and 4,000 leads. Every agent lead has a website we opened and a checked email, and a company we cannot finish costs nothing.
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. UpLead's plans are for finding and exporting contacts, and it offers done-for-you campaigns as a separate service.
What about phone numbers?
An UpLead credit gives access to a contact's email and mobile direct dial (uplead.com/pricing). Leadistry never gives a person's mobile direct dial or a personal number. It is email-first, built for the outreach UK PECR permits to corporate subscribers. UK rules tightly restrict unsolicited phone marketing, so a number is shown only when the company publishes it as its own business contact, and we check it against the TPS and the Corporate TPS before we show it and again at least every 28 days. If your work depends on a person's mobile direct dial, UpLead fits it better, and Leadistry will not pretend otherwise.
How do I opt out of UpLead?
UpLead runs its own removal process: use the privacy or opt-out controls published on uplead.com, which is the only place a request about UpLead's database can be actioned. We cannot remove anyone from another company's product. If it is Leadistry you want out of, that takes one form at leadistry.co.uk/remove-company, no account needed, and the suppression holds permanently.
