Built by a developer,
for developers.
PeopleDB was built by Erik Strömberg. The premise was simple: contact data is a commodity, and buying access to it should work like buying access to any other API — self-serve, clear pricing, no discovery call required before you're allowed to see a price.
The data landscape kept getting more fragmented while the tools built on top of it kept getting bloated. Enrichment platforms added seats, dashboards, sequences, and integrations that most users don't need — and priced accordingly. The observation behind PeopleDB is that in the AI era, data is the primitive, not the application. Developers and technical teams want to build their own pipelines from a small set of reliable, well-defined tools. A clean API call should be enough.
PeopleDB is a small operation with small overhead. That's intentional. Low fixed costs make it possible to charge less per lookup than larger platforms without cutting corners on coverage. It's been in development for over a year and launched in early 2026.
