6sense has no public price. The cheapest paid package is reported from $35,000 a year (Docket, October 2026). UserGems puts the median contract at $62,440 a year, from Vendr data on 385 purchases (UserGems, October 2026).
The mid package, Sales Intelligence with Predictive AI, is reported from about $55,000 a year (Docket, October 2026). A million records has no public price. 6sense sells platform access and a credit pool on an annual contract, not rows at a rate.
6sense is an ABM and intent platform first and a data source second. Credits pay for contact data. The contract pays for the platform around it.
Plans
6sense lists no prices on its site, and its pricing page was blocked to our reader. Every figure below is a third-party report, so treat it as a range and get a written quote. Docket says 6sense retired the named Team, Growth and Enterprise tiers in May 2025 for a modular credit model. UserGems still describes those tiers.
| Plan | Price (reported, per year) | Credits | Seats | API access | Limits |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sales Intelligence + Data Credits | From $35,000 | Set by contract | Not published | Enrichment APIs sold as an add-on | Contact and company data, third-party intent, web visitor ID. |
| Sales Intelligence + Predictive AI | From about $55,000 | Set by contract | Not published | Lead Scoring API needs the Advanced package | Adds buying stage, account scoring and a sales copilot. |
| Full suite | From $130,000, up to $300,000+ | Set by contract | Not published | All APIs, set by contract | Adds AI email, advertising and workflow modules. |
| Median of Vendr purchases | About $62,440 | Set by contract | Not published | Set by contract | Range $11,376 to $176,809 a year, 385 purchases. |

The free plan is gone. Docket still lists a $0 plan with 50 credits a month, but UserGems reports that 6sense discontinued its free Sales Intelligence plan on August 12, 2026.
6sense's own API docs confirm the packaging in part. The Company Firmographics API needs the 6sense Platform or Sales Intelligence package. The People Enrichment API is an add-on. The Lead Scoring API needs the Advanced package (6sense API docs, October 2026).
What a credit buys
A 6sense credit is a token that reveals or exports one record. The credits you get depend on your contract, and unused credits do not carry over to the next period (6sense credits overview, October 2026). The support pages publish credit costs, but no dollar price per credit.
| Action | Credit cost | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Reveal emails and phones for one person (Sales Intelligence) | 1 credit, only if data exists | Credits overview |
| Export one person to CSV | 1 credit, even if nothing new is found | Credits overview |
| Export one person to CRM or SEP | 1 credit, only if net new data is added. Up to 2 credits as Contact-Account | Credits overview |
| Export one company | 1 credit | Credits overview |
| AI Writer email | 1 credit, with 4 regenerations | Credits overview |
| People Enrichment API | 1 credit per matched record. No match, no charge | 6sense API docs |
| Company Identification API | 1 API credit per matched company, a separate pool | 6sense API docs |
| People Search API, Lead Scoring API | No credits | 6sense API docs |
All sources checked October 2026. Re-enriching a record inside its 12-month maintenance period costs nothing. Pushing segment names or scores to a CRM costs nothing.
Hidden costs
The licence is the visible part. Most of the rest sits outside the quote.
- Annual contract. Reported terms are 12 to 24 months with auto-renewal and tight cancellation windows (UserGems, October 2026).
- Implementation. Reported at $10,000 to $50,000 or more, and 3 to 6 months before the platform is fully running (UserGems, October 2026). Docket reports $5,000 to $50,000.
- Renewal uplift. Sources disagree: UserGems reports 5 to 10% a year, Docket cites 15 to 40% effective on Vendr data. Ask for a renewal cap in writing.
- Credits expire. They do not roll over between pools. Admins get expiry emails 60, 30, 15, 7 and 1 day out (6sense credits overview, October 2026).
- Short on credits means failure. A bulk reveal or export that needs more credits than you hold fails outright. More credits come through your account team (6sense credits FAQ, October 2026).
- API is gated. Tokens come with a purchased package, and you ask your CSM to enable eligible APIs (6sense API docs, October 2026).
- Low rate limit. The API is capped at 100 requests a minute. People Enrichment allows 20 queries a second per customer and 25 queries per call (6sense API docs, October 2026).
- Staffing. Reported: a RevOps owner is often needed for adoption (Docket, October 2026).
- First-year total. Docket puts it at 2 to 3 times the headline licence.
Worked examples
6sense has no per-record price, so we do not divide a contract by records. That would produce a rate 6sense never quoted. The examples show what the reported figures support.
10k records a month
- Credits needed: 10,000 at 1 credit per matched record.
- Entry paid package, reported from $35,000 a year: 35,000 / 12 = about $2,917 a month.
- Median contract, reported: 62,440 / 12 = about $5,203 a month.
- The credit pool inside those contracts is not public.
1M records a month
- Public price: No public 1M price.
- Credits needed: 1,000,000, and credit pricing is quote only.
- The largest reported package, $300,000 a year, is $25,000 a month. It is a ceiling people report, not a 1M quote.
- Speed is a limit too. People Enrichment allows 20 queries a second: 1,000,000 / 20 = 50,000 seconds, about 14 hours.
25M records a month
- Public price: No public 25M price.
- Nothing on 6sense's site changes at this volume. Ask sales how 25M credits a month map to the contract.
| Volume a month | 6sense | LeadOcean Pro |
|---|---|---|
| 10k records | No public price. Median contract about $62,440 a year | $499 a month |
| 1M records | No public 1M price | $499 a month |
| 25M records | No public 25M price | $499 a month, with fair-use pacing. Email support first |
LeadOcean Pro is $499 a month, or $5,988 a year. The 6sense median is about 10 times that. LeadOcean has no intent feed or scoring, so the row shows a flat fee next to a quote, not a like-for-like swap.
Is it worth it
6sense is worth it when intent and scoring drive your plan and a team will work the accounts daily. The price buys the platform, and the data is one part of it.
- Enterprise ABM team. Yes. Account scoring, buying stages and ad orchestration are what the contract pays for.
- Mid-market sales team. Maybe. Price a data-only package first. Check whether a cheaper intent source covers your accounts.
- Startup or solo founder. No. The reported entry price is far above any list plan for contact data.
- RevOps or developer feeding a pipeline. Only for the signal. The API is gated behind a package, capped at 100 requests a minute, and priced by quote.
- High volume, 1M or more. There is no public price. 6sense does not sell by record. Ask what the quote counts.
