Cognism

European B2B Data With Phone-Verified Numbers

Cognism provides B2B contact and company data with a focus on accuracy that most competitors can't match. Their phone-verified mobile numbers go through human verification, resulting in 98% connect rates on direct dials.

The platform covers EMEA markets more deeply than US-based alternatives like ZoomInfo or Apollo. Intent data shows which accounts are actively researching solutions in your category, so sales teams can prioritize timing.

The GDPR Angle

Cognism checks every contact record against European do-not-call lists (TPS, CTPS, Robinson lists) before making it available. This is table stakes for European sales teams but something most US data providers don't handle natively.

Worth Noting

Cognism is headquartered in London (UK), not the EU. Post-Brexit, the UK operates under its own data protection regime, though it mirrors GDPR closely. All data processing is available within EU infrastructure.
