PeopleDB is a contact intelligence API. A request with a LinkedIn ID, LinkedIn public identifier, GitHub ID or GitHub username returns a single contact record containing email addresses, direct dial phone numbers and cross-referenced social profiles across GitHub, LinkedIn and Twitter. Emails are deduplicated across multiple sources and classified as personal or work, and phone numbers are normalized from multiple providers.
A distinguishing method is GitHub commit extraction: PeopleDB reconstructs email addresses from the public GitHub event archive and matches them to commit author names, which the company says surfaces contacts for engineering, product and design roles where conventional enrichment finds nothing. A separate SMTP endpoint verifies deliverability before sending. The company reports 240M+ indexed profiles and a 73% hit rate on engineering profiles, based on its own logs as of April 2026.
The service is aimed at developers and pay-as-you-go teams. It also lists a Chrome extension, a Zapier integration and free lookup tools. Billing is per successful lookup with no seats or subscriptions.
