Vendor: [dropcontact.com](https://dropcontact.com) · entry id 01-dropcontact · source 01-data-enrichment.md line 236

**What it does**
A France-based, GDPR-oriented contact enrichment and email-finding/verification service that takes a name plus company (name, domain, or LinkedIn URL) and returns a verified professional email plus cleaned company data, with batch processing of up to 250 contacts at once.

**AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it**
No strong AI claims found; the vendor's own positioning centers on "triple verification" and data-matching/deduplication logic rather than AI/ML. Treat as automation and rules-based verification, not AI-branded.

**RevOps role**
GDPR-conscious contact enrichment/verification layer for CRM hygiene and list-building; also a widely-used Clay waterfall step (Clay-managed account billed at 2 credits/enriched cell, with a 24h auto-update toggle).

**MCP server**

- **Status bucket**: Official MCP

- **Auth**: Hosted server at mcp.dropcontact.com/mcp/, supporting OAuth (recommended, browser-based) or a Dropcontact API token/key passed via headers; also usable through the npx mcp-remote bridge for clients without native remote-MCP support

- **Parsed URLs**: 2 found in the mcp_url field

- **Endpoint probe**: docs page, not an endpoint
- **Docs URL**: [https://www.dropcontact.com/mcp-dropcontact](https://www.dropcontact.com/mcp-dropcontact)
- **Probed**: 2026-09-04, HTTP 200

The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established by hand on 2026-09-07. On 2026-09-04 the recorded URL served a documentation page, not an MCP endpoint. That is where to read about the server, not where to connect to it. An agent needs the second.

**What this server exposes**

Not harvested yet. Unmeasured, not empty: nobody has read this server's tool list, so this page says nothing about what it exposes.

141 of the 741 entries that record an official or community MCP server carry a harvested tool list. The other 600 are unmeasured, which is not the same as empty. Harvest last run 2026-09-27. The full roll up is on the [tools index](../tools-index.md).

**Command line**

No CLI found by the 2026-09-27 harvest across vendor docs, npm, PyPI, Homebrew and GitHub. That is a probe result, not proof of absence.

**Access gate**

- **Gate bucket**: Paid, self-serve

- **Can a solo operator reach it**: Yes, by paying, no sales call

api_gate, verbatim from the file:

paid

**API documentation**

No documentation URL recorded.

727 of 1252 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank.

**GitHub health**

Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build.

The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale.

**On GitHub**

No GitHub organisation could be tied to dropcontact.com with evidence on 2026-09-08.

Recorded by the harvest: github candidates were seen but none passed the evidence rules.

1 candidate account seen and rejected by the evidence rules: dropcontact-d. A name match alone is never accepted; the account has to point at the vendor domain.

**Jobs it can do**

- [Enrich a person from a LinkedIn URL](../jobs/enrich-person-from-linkedin-url.md)
- [Enrich a company from a domain](../jobs/enrich-company-from-domain.md)
- [Find a person's LinkedIn URL from a name and company](../jobs/find-linkedin-url-from-name-and-company.md)
- [Find a work email address](../jobs/find-work-email.md)
- [Verify an email is deliverable](../jobs/verify-email-deliverable.md)

A job tag means the vendor says the tool does this. It is not a test result, not proof the capability is reachable through the tool's MCP server, and not proof it is available on the gate this entry records.

Tagged by machine-pass on 2026-08-25 against the closed 56 job vocabulary. 271 of 1,252 entries carry at least one tag; 849 tags are assigned in total.

**Notes, verbatim from the file**
Dropcontact is a clear "official, vendor-built" MCP - it has its own product page and a centrally hosted MCP endpoint at mcp.dropcontact.com, distinct from (and in addition to) its long-standing Clay data-provider integration. API & MCP access is bundled starting at the Starter tier (EUR 79/mo, ~500 credits/mo) and up; there is no persistent free API tier, only a "50 free emails" signup incentive. Pricing model is pay-on-success (1 credit = 1 email found or verified; credit refunded if nothing found). Lower tiers reportedly throttle API requests to ~100/min, which can bottleneck heavy Clay/n8n automation. 2026-09-03: vendor docs state the enrich endpoint (POST /v1/enrich/all) accepts "first_name + last_name + company (or full_name + company)" and its response includes a linkedin field with a linkedin.com/in/ example (https://developer.dropcontact.com/); no MCP tool name is stated there; the docs state a credit is charged only if a verified email is returned. 2026-09-07: https://mcp.dropcontact.com/mcp returned 401 with {"error": "invalid_token", "error_description": "Authentication failed. The provided bearer token is invalid..."} to an MCP initialize POST (https://mcp.dropcontact.com/mcp).
