We had been using Lusha for 2 years to enrich our contacts. The emails were good, but our reply rates plateaued at 4%. Since we switched to Rodz, we reach prospects at the right moment, with the right context. The result: 22% reply rate. The difference is timing.

Frequently asked questions
Not directly, because Rodz doesn't work as a static contact database. However, you can use your Lusha lists in your CRM (HubSpot, etc.) and Rodz will automatically enrich those contacts with intent signals and context whenever a relevant event is detected.
Rodz doesn't try to compete on database size. Our approach is fundamentally different: instead of giving you access to millions of cold contacts, Rodz detects companies that are showing buyer intent right now. The result: fewer contacts, but a conversion rate 4 to 6 times higher.
Correct. Lusha excels at ad-hoc enrichment via its Chrome Extension on LinkedIn. Rodz takes a different approach: the platform works 100% autonomously. You configure your intent signals once, and enriched leads are delivered automatically into your tools (Lemlist, HubSpot, Google Sheets). No need to browse LinkedIn.
Three reasons: 1) Timing. Reaching out to a company that just raised funding or hired for a key role is far more relevant than a random cold email. 2) Context. Every lead comes with the detected intent signal, enabling genuine personalization. 3) AI. Rodz generates personalized messages based on the intent signal, not just a simple {first_name} + {company}.
