Whitepages alternatives
LookValid does not offer people-search records. For that job, use Whitepages or another provider on this list. Whitepages sells people-search records. Whitepages is a US people and phone directory with free basic searches and a Premium subscription for cell numbers, background reports and property records. It also advertises per-query API products.

Shortlist in people search
Ranking rule: Lowest per-1,000 price in US dollars first, at the best volume tier the page prints. Where a page prints only a price per request, the per-1,000 figure is our arithmetic and is shown as "about". Providers with no dollar per-1,000 figure we can compare come after, and ties go by name.
| Rank | Provider | Free result | Paid result | How it bills |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | BeenVerified | 1 Month Membership: $36.89, per month after the trial, up to 100 reports Source | Subscription | |
| 2 | Spokeo | A name search can be run without paying, but full reports need a membership. Source | 3 month Membership: $14.95, per month, billed every 3 months, up to 100 reports per month Source | Subscription |
| 3 | Spy Dialer | Lookups are free with no sign-up and no credit card. Source | Reverse phone lookup: Free, per search, no sign-up or card Source |
