Firecrawl has added Apollo, FullEnrich and Data Legion to Alexandria, letting agents use those providers for people and company enrichment through the same Firecrawl connection they use for search and scraping. The practical change is fewer separate integrations to wire up, with prices and provider terms still very much part of the journey.

What happened

The new people-data tools can find contacts or enrich records with information such as work emails, phone numbers and company details. Apollo offers free person searches by job title and company domain; other capabilities show their cost in Firecrawl credits before use. Firecrawl says agents can discover available tools and compare their inputs and prices before choosing one.

Some providers require an organisation to accept their terms before the first call. The announcement says agents must get explicit authorisation before accepting terms on a user’s behalf. It also notes that restrictions vary by provider: FullEnrich’s terms, for example, prohibit marketing to personal email addresses. Read Firecrawl’s announcement.

Why it matters

For teams building lead lists or routing incoming sign-ups, the integration could remove a tedious hurdle: connecting a data provider, learning its schema and managing another key before an agent can return a useful record. Firecrawl says users can make these requests from agent tools including Claude, ChatGPT and Codex.

The convenience comes with a real operational question. Contact details are not all interchangeable: provider terms can limit how data is used, and some calls require prior organisational approval. A single connection makes the plumbing simpler, not the responsibilities attached to the data.

Our read

This is a concrete expansion of what an agent can do through Firecrawl Alexandria, rather than a vague promise of “more integrations”. The useful details are the named providers, the free Apollo search, visible credit prices for other capabilities and the requirement for explicit approval where provider terms apply. Teams should check those terms and data-use restrictions before building enrichment into an automated workflow. Agentic convenience is lovely; surprise compliance homework is less so.

What to watch

  • When People Data Labs and other announced providers become available.
  • Whether Firecrawl adds more detail about provider-specific prices and data-use restrictions.
  • How reliably agents respect approval requirements and skip providers whose terms have not been accepted.

Discussion spark: Should an agent be allowed to enrich contact records automatically once a team has approved a provider, or should people-data lookups require approval each time?
