Question 1

Can Origami find cre firms owners and decision-makers?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Origami searches Google Maps, industry directories, licensing databases, and the live web to find cre firms along with verified owner names, emails, and phone numbers. Traditional databases like Apollo and ZoomInfo have poor coverage of this vertical because they rely on LinkedIn data, which most cre firms owners don't maintain.

Question 2

Why can't I find cre firms in Apollo or ZoomInfo?

Accepted Answer

Apollo and ZoomInfo index LinkedIn profiles and enterprise firmographics. Most cre firms owners don't have a LinkedIn presence or appear in enterprise databases. Origami is built differently — it searches Google Maps, state licensing boards, industry-specific directories, review sites, and real-time web data to find cre firms that traditional B2B databases miss entirely.

Question 3

What information does Origami return for cre firms?

Accepted Answer

Origami returns company name, owner/decision-maker name, verified email, direct phone number, address, Google rating, review count, employee count, and any available growth signals like recent hires, new locations, or service expansions. All contact data is verified in real time.

Question 4

How is Origami different from Apollo, ZoomInfo, or Clay?

Accepted Answer

• Cheaper: Paid plans from $29/month. • Simpler: Start with one prompt, no filters, booleans, or new tool to learn. • Same depth: We integrate the same kinds of data sources as Clay, without giving up simplicity.

Question 5

How accurate is the contact data for cre firms?

Accepted Answer

Emails are 95%+ accurate. Origami waterfall-enriches across multiple providers and verifies in real time. Phone numbers are validated the same way. For cre firms specifically, Origami cross-references multiple sources to ensure you're reaching the actual owner or decision-maker, not a generic info@ address.

Question 6

Can I search for cre firms by city or state?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Just describe what you're looking for — "Find cre firms in Phoenix with 4+ stars and 10+ employees" — and Origami handles the rest. You can filter by any combination of location, size, ratings, reviews, hiring activity, or growth signals.

Question 7

Can I import my own list of cre firms to enrich?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload a CSV of your existing cre firms contacts and Origami will fill in missing data — verified emails, direct phone numbers, owner names, and company details. You can also use your existing list to find lookalike companies that match the same profile.

Question 8

What data sources does Origami use?

Accepted Answer

Origami aggregates 15+ sources including Google Maps, LinkedIn company profiles, job postings, tech stack data, state licensing databases, industry directories, review sites, and real-time email and phone verification. The combination gives Origami coverage that no single database can match.

Question 9

Does Origami include email sequencing?

Accepted Answer

Origami focuses on finding and enriching prospects. You can export results to CSV, then use your preferred outreach tool for sequences.

Question 10

How does the credit system work?

Accepted Answer

Credits are consumed per step — fetches, research, and enrichments each use different amounts. Plans start at $29/mo for 2,000 credits. Most users find a single list of 50-100 leads costs a few hundred credits.
