Clodura.AI vs CompanyData.com (BoldData): Which One Do You Actually Need?
You're comparing a sales engagement platform to a data supplier - and that distinction matters more than any feature grid. If you've landed on this question, you're either an SDR team launching outbound who wants sequences, calling, and intent signals baked into one tool, or a RevOps lead who needs a KYC lookup API or a bulk dataset of 50,000 German manufacturers. These tools serve fundamentally different workflows, and picking the wrong one wastes months.
Let's cut through it.
30-Second Verdict
Choose Clodura.AI if you need an all-in-one outbound platform - database, sales engagement, calling, intent, and email warmup in a single credit system.
Choose CompanyData.com if you need official-register company datasets, bulk exports, or KYC/KYB verification workflows.
Skip both if your core problem is verified emails and mobile numbers with guaranteed freshness. Prospeo handles that with self-serve access - 98% email accuracy, 125M+ verified mobiles, 7-day refresh cycle - starting free.
What Each Tool Actually Is
Clodura.AI is a GenAI-powered GTM platform covering the full outbound workflow. It pulls from 50+ data providers via waterfall enrichment, layers in buyer intent, and offers integrated calling and warmup. Over 20,000 teams use it.
CompanyData.com is a registry-powered data supplier, formerly BoldData as of September 2025. They've served 5,000+ clients since 2013, hold a 9.2/10 Kiyoh rating across 85 reviews, and add 2M new companies monthly. Their product suite - Bold API, Bold Bulk, Bold Platform, Bold Enrichment, Bold Hierarchies - is built on official trade registers, not web scraping. You buy data from them; you don't run campaigns through them. Big difference.
Feature-by-Feature Comparison
| Dimension | Clodura.AI | CompanyData.com | Edge |
|---|---|---|---|

| Data sourcing | 50+ providers (waterfall) | Official trade registers | CompanyData (authoritative) |
| Scale | 600M+ contacts, 20M+ companies | 400M companies, 607M contacts | Tie |
| Delivery | SaaS platform | Excel/CSV/JSON/API/S3 | CompanyData (more flexible) |
| Pricing model | Monthly credits | Per-record lists or bulk | Depends on volume |
| Free/trial | Free tier available | 2-week test key (1,000 searches, 100 exports) | Clodura (free tier) |

Burning Clodura credits on warmup and calling you don't need? CompanyData doesn't even offer work emails. Prospeo gives you 143M+ verified emails at 98% accuracy and 125M+ mobiles - no platform overhead, no bulk minimums. 7-day refresh means your contacts are current, not stale.
Stop paying for features you don't use. Pay $0.01 per verified email.
Pricing and Unit Economics
Clodura runs on credits. Entry is 5,000 credits at $100/mo, dropping to $90/mo annually.
An email reveal costs ~1 credit, a phone reveal ~10 credits, calling burns 3 credits/min for US/CA, and warming a mailbox costs 200 credits. That means 5,000 credits gets you roughly 5,000 email reveals or 500 phone reveals - not both. We've seen teams waste half their credits on warmup alone before realizing the math doesn't work. One detail worth knowing: monthly unused credits roll over for two months, while annual credits expire after 12 months. Plans scale to 100,000 credits at $1,556/mo.
CompanyData.com's pricing works differently. Dutch B2B lists start at EUR 425 for 1,000 addresses. Mid-range runs EUR 1,375-2,175 for 10,000-20,000 companies. Bold Bulk - their enterprise product for large datasets - starts at EUR 10,000 for 1M+ records delivered monthly or quarterly. Bold Bulk isn't designed for highly specific sales targeting; it's built for analytics, AI training, and market coverage.
Bold API pricing is volume-based; expect EUR 10-50 per 1,000 lookups.
Here's the thing: if you don't use Clodura's outreach, calling, and warmup features, you're paying for a Swiss Army knife to open letters. If you only need a one-time regional list, CompanyData's no-subscription model is cheaper and simpler.
Data Quality Head-to-Head
| Signal | Clodura.AI | CompanyData.com |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Contact-level deliverability | Structural/firmographic accuracy |
| Test result | ~98% deliverability (1,529 leads, 28 bounces) | Kiyoh 9.2/10 across 85 reviews |
| Strength | Verified emails perform well | Legal status, directors, UBOs, incorporation dates |
| Limitation | Including guessed emails can reduce deliverability; "100% phone connectivity" claim deserves skepticism | No verified work emails or direct dials |
In our experience, registry data is bulletproof for firmographics but useless for reaching a VP's inbox. If you need both structural company data and verified contact info, you'll need to pair CompanyData with a dedicated contact layer - which is exactly the gap we built Prospeo's email finder to close.
When to Pick Each Tool
Choose Clodura.AI if you...
- Run ongoing outbound and want sales engagement, calling, and intent in one platform
- Prefer credit-based flexibility over bulk purchases
- Need a database-to-deal workflow without stitching together five tools
Choose CompanyData.com if you...
- Need a one-time regional list purchase, particularly for European markets
- Run KYC/KYB verification requiring official-register attributes like UBOs and legal status
- Want bulk data for analytics, AI training, or CRM enrichment rather than targeted sales outreach
For teams that just need accurate contact data without the platform overhead, skip both and go straight to a purpose-built contact database.
The Contact Layer Neither Provides
Neither tool specializes in verified contactability - actually reaching a human. Clodura bundles contact data inside a broader platform, and CompanyData doesn't offer work emails or direct dials at all.
That's the gap. Prospeo fills it with 143M+ verified emails, 125M+ verified mobiles, and 30+ search filters across 300M+ professional profiles. A 7-day data refresh cycle means you're not emailing someone who changed jobs six weeks ago. At roughly $0.01 per email and 10 credits per mobile, it's a fraction of what you'd spend burning Clodura credits on reveals alone. Self-serve, no contracts, starts free.
Registry data nails firmographics but can't reach a VP's inbox. Clodura's waterfall enrichment mixes too many sources. Prospeo's proprietary 5-step verification delivers 98% email accuracy across 300M+ profiles - with 30+ filters to target exactly who you need.
Bridge the contact gap neither tool fills. Start free with 75 email credits.
FAQ
Is CompanyData.com the same as BoldData?
Yes. BoldData rebranded to CompanyData.com on September 11, 2025 under CEO Daan Wolff. Same team, same registry-backed datasets, new name. All existing Bold-branded products (Bold API, Bold Bulk, etc.) continue under the CompanyData umbrella.
Can I use Clodura.AI just for data without the outreach tools?
Technically yes, but you'll burn credits on features you won't use. If you only need contact data, a dedicated database with 30+ filters - like Prospeo at ~$0.01/email - is more cost-effective than paying for calling, warmup, and sequences you'll never touch.
What's the minimum spend for CompanyData.com?
EUR 425 for 1,000 Dutch B2B addresses. International lists require a custom quote. Bold Bulk starts at EUR 10,000 for 1M+ records delivered monthly or quarterly. Bold API runs EUR 10-50 per 1,000 lookups depending on volume.
