    Find emails and phone numbers on LinkedIn.

    Freemium Sales & Lead Gen

    Review Add to Chrome

Sales teams spend a lot of time switching between LinkedIn, email and a CRM just to find and log a contact. A browser extension can surface a lead's email, sync activity to Salesforce or HubSpot, and inspect record fields on the page, cutting the manual copy-paste that slows down prospecting and pipeline hygiene.

Finding emails and phone numbers on LinkedIn

Lead gen extensions typically add a button to LinkedIn profiles and search results that reveals a verified email address or phone number. Some also work on company websites to find general contact addresses. Freemium plans usually cap the number of lookups per month, so check the limit before relying on one for high-volume outreach.

Working Salesforce and HubSpot from the browser

A Salesforce inspector extension lets you view and edit object fields, page layouts and permissions directly on a Salesforce record, which is faster than navigating setup menus. HubSpot sales extensions add email tracking, templates and meeting links to Gmail or Outlook so reps can log activity without opening the CRM tab.

What to check before installing one

Lead gen extensions request access to the pages you visit, so review what data they read and where it is sent. Prefer tools with a clear privacy policy and a free tier that lets you test lookup accuracy before committing to a paid plan. For Salesforce tooling, confirm it supports your org's edition and permission model.

Best sales and lead gen Chrome extensions: FAQs

What is the best sales lead gen Chrome extension?

Apollo.io is our top pick. Its freemium plan finds emails and phone numbers directly on LinkedIn profiles, which makes prospecting faster for sales reps without leaving the page they are already on.

Is there a free Salesforce extension for Chrome?

Yes, several Salesforce inspector extensions are free and let you view or edit object fields, page layouts and metadata directly on a record. They are popular with Salesforce admins for day-to-day troubleshooting.

Which sales extensions work inside a CRM?

Salesforce Inspector Reloaded works directly inside Salesforce, showing field and object details on any record page. HubSpot's sales extension works within Gmail or Outlook and syncs email tracking and logged activity back into HubSpot's CRM automatically.

Do sales extensions work with Salesforce Lightning?

Most current Salesforce inspector extensions are built for Lightning Experience, since Salesforce moved away from Classic. Check the extension's listing for explicit Lightning support before installing it.

Is a lead finder extension safe to use on LinkedIn?

It depends on the extension. Reputable ones only read the profile page you are viewing and do not scrape connections automatically. Avoid extensions that request broad access or ask you to log in through the extension itself.

What does a HubSpot sales Chrome extension do?

A HubSpot sales extension adds email tracking, saved templates, meeting links and contact logging to Gmail or Outlook, so activity syncs to HubSpot automatically instead of being entered by hand.

Can I find someone's email without an extension?

You can search a company's domain pattern manually or use a web-based lookup tool, but a browser extension is faster because it works directly on the LinkedIn profile or company page you are already viewing.

Is Apollo.io free to use?

Apollo.io offers a freemium plan that includes a limited number of email and phone lookups per month. Paid plans raise those limits and add more CRM integration features.

What is SalesLoft's Chrome extension used for?

The SalesLoft extension lets reps log calls, emails and LinkedIn activity to their SalesLoft cadence directly from the browser, so outreach steps stay tracked without switching tabs.

Do sales extensions work in Edge or Brave?

Yes, most Chrome Web Store sales extensions, including Apollo.io and Salesforce inspector tools, also install in Chromium-based browsers such as Microsoft Edge and Brave, since they share the same extension platform.

How much data can a lead gen extension see?

It can typically see the content of the page you are actively viewing, such as a LinkedIn profile, to extract contact details. Check the permissions list before installing to confirm it does not request access to every site you visit.
