A monthly plan you can cancel anytime — or one list without a subscription. No onboarding fee.
NordicContacts or Vainu for prospecting?
Vainu is strong on company-level signals and registry data. When you need a list of named decision-makers for your next campaign, the difference shows in price, commitment and contact usability.

Contact freshness
NordicContacts
Every contact offered to customers was checked no more than three months ago, including the person's current link to the company.
Vainu
The strength is current company-level registry and status data; an individual contact's currency should be confirmed before a campaign.
Decision-maker contact details
NordicContacts
A named decision-maker with a work email and phone number, filtered by responsibility area and organizational level.
Vainu
The core is company data and signals; person-level contact details and exports are more limited.
Market coverage
NordicContacts
Search companies and decision-makers in Finland, Sweden and Estonia with the same tool, filters and subscription.
Vainu
The entry package includes one Nordic country registry; additional countries cost extra. Estonia is not covered, but Norway and Denmark are.
Seats and exports
NordicContacts
Browser search, Excel exports, REST API and MCP for AI agents all draw on the same contact balance included in the subscription.
Vainu
The prospecting package includes one user and 1,000 exports per year; additional users, exports and API are priced separately.
AI segmentation
NordicContacts
Describe your ideal customer in plain language. AI builds ready company, keyword and decision-maker filters you can refine before export.
Vainu
Filtering focuses on company-level registry, technology and signal data rather than the same direct description-to-decision-maker-segment workflow.
Sales signals
NordicContacts
No real-time event triggers — 'New data' segment filters find contacts created and responsibility roles assigned within a chosen number of days, fresh changes are easy to target.
Vainu
Real-time signals such as hiring, funding rounds and organizational changes are a genuine Vainu strength.
Are you paying for a platform or a usable list?
A sales list's value does not come from the number of filters or company records. What matters is getting a named person whose responsibility relates to what you sell — and a working work email that reaches them.
NordicContacts limits customer-facing data to current business contacts: every contact was checked no more than three months ago, consumer email domains are filtered out and responsibility areas normalize varying titles.
Test the difference with one real target group
1
Filter the companies
Choose Finland, Sweden or Estonia and filter by industry, headcount and keywords describing business activity.
2
Choose the right decision-makers
Select a responsibility area and organizational level. The preview shows the companies and titles before export.
3
Export the reviewed list
Review the export summary and download the Excel file. Consumer emails are already filtered out, so the list needs no cleanup first.
Example: the same target group in two tools
For example, choose Finnish manufacturing companies with 10–50 employees and finance decision-makers. Apply equivalent filters in both tools and review a sample for company fit and role relevance. Check contact details only in data you are entitled to use. This example does not promise a particular result count.
NordicContacts is purpose-built for building sales lists
Switch to NordicContacts when
- you need named decision-makers with work emails, not just company data;
- contact freshness matters more than database size;
- you want Finland, Sweden and Estonia in one subscription;
- you need Excel, REST API or MCP access in the same service;
- you want to start at €49 a month with no annual commitment.
Vainu may still be needed if
- real-time signals and triggers are the core of your sales work;
- your CRM automations and integrations are built on Vainu;
- you need Norway or Denmark, which we do not cover.
NordicContacts is an independent service. This page does not imply a partnership with or endorsement by Vainu. Vainu pricing information is based on the service's public price list.
Frequently asked questions
Does NordicContacts replace Vainu for prospecting?
Yes, when your need is finding named decision-makers with working work emails and exporting the list to Excel, your CRM or via API. If your sales work relies on Vainu's real-time signals or CRM automations built on it, assess those separately.
How much does Vainu cost compared to NordicContacts?
Vainu's public prospecting package starts at €3,500 per year plus a €200 onboarding fee, with one user and one country registry. NordicContacts starts at €49 a month with no commitment — or buy one list without a subscription. Check Vainu's current pricing on their website before deciding.
Why is NordicContacts contact data fresher?
Every contact offered to customers in search, Excel, REST API or MCP has been checked within the past three months. An old registry record alone does not make a person an active contact.
Can I test a target group before buying?
Yes. Start a free trial with no credit card, build a target group and review the preview. Personal details are partially masked.
How do I get the contacts into my CRM?
Download the Excel file and use your CRM's file import. On paid plans the same data can also be used via REST API and MCP, and purchased lists can be exported to supported CRM systems.
Does NordicContacts cover the same countries as Vainu?
Not entirely. NordicContacts covers Finland, Sweden and Estonia in one search and one subscription. Vainu covers Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and the Netherlands, but the entry package includes only one country registry. If you need Norway or Denmark, Vainu may still be necessary.
Does a recent address guarantee email delivery?
No. The check indicates data freshness, but no service can guarantee future delivery because people, companies and email systems change. Bounces and objections must be handled appropriately.
