Each Surfe alternative presents specific advantages depending on your workflow, budget, and data enrichment needs.
Derrick App stands out by running as a web app with nothing to install, natively inside Google Sheets, and through an MCP server or a REST API when you'd rather stay in your AI client or your own stack - eliminating export-import friction and offering unmatched flexibility with 28+ modular workflows. Starting from 20 EUR/month with integrated AI (GPT-4 + Claude), it’s the most accessible option for freelancers, startups, and SMBs working in Sheets.
If you prefer a Chrome extension with native CRM sync, Kaspr (Europe/GDPR) or Lusha (international) are relevant. For Sales Navigator export, Evaboot remains the leader. All-in-one needs (prospecting + outreach + CRM) are better served by Apollo. Finally, large enterprises with strict compliance requirements will turn to Cognism.
The ideal is to test multiple tools thanks to free plans. Derrick App offers 100 credits/month (vs 5-15 competitors), allowing real testing before commitment.

Switch to Derrick
Derrick is a web app: nothing to install, no credit card, 100 free credits every month.
Sign up on the Derrick web app. Nothing to install, no credit card required: you start with 100 free credits per month.
Upload the CSV you exported from Surfe, paste LinkedIn URLs, or import from LinkedIn Sales Navigator. The same actions also run in Google Sheets, in Claude (MCP) and via the API.
Pick the column to enrich and the data you need: emails, phone numbers, LinkedIn data, company info, tech stack. Derrick fills the columns, and the email and phone finders only charge for what they find.
Derrick App offers the most generous free plan with 100 renewable credits/month (vs 5-15 for others). This represents approximately 14-15 enriched leads monthly, sufficient to truly test the tool or for permanent light use.
Surfe works with free LinkedIn for basic features, but advanced enrichment capabilities require Sales Navigator ($109.99/month). If you want to avoid this dependency, Derrick App, Apollo, or Lusha are good alternatives.
For automatic native CRM sync, Apollo, LeadIQ, and Cognism excel. If you work in Google Sheets and export to your CRM, Derrick App is optimal as it eliminates export-import steps.
Kaspr and Cognism are European leaders with enhanced GDPR compliance. Derrick App is also GDPR compliant from design and offers French support.
Yes, most work without SN: Derrick App, Apollo, Lusha, Kaspr, Seamless.AI, Cognism, Pharow, LeadIQ. Only Evaboot and Wiza absolutely require Sales Navigator to function.
Derrick App integrates GPT-4 and Claude from 20 EUR/month for scoring, segmentation, and intelligent enrichment. Apollo and Seamless.AI also offer AI but on more expensive plans.
All these tools offer email verification, but rates vary:
The ideal is to test with each tool’s free plan on your target segment.
