Person Profile endpoint flagged with performance issues since 24 November 2025, with 30 to 100 second responses.\n\n**RocketReach API.** The hosted MCP server has nine documented tools, OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration and machine-readable error codes, and searches cost no credits. Plan prices were not readable, the docs send API plan requests to email, the terms require a human account holder, and the `account` tool returns the account's API key to the model.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Enrich Layer API + MCP\n\n1. Top up once before testing. Trial keys run at 2 requests a minute\n2. Set the person profile timeout to at least 100 seconds\n3. Ask for `extra`, personal emails or phone numbers only when needed, since each adds credits\n4. Use `callback_url` on slow lookups such as work email instead of holding the connection\n5. Map old Proxycurl paths with the transition guide rather than guessing\n\n### RocketReach API\n\n1. Search first with `person_search` or `company_search`, which cost no credits, then look up only the profile IDs needed\n2. Treat `status: \"pending\"` as normal. Poll `check_person_status` after at least 3 seconds, and polling is free\n3. Do not echo the `account` tool's output to users or logs. It includes the account's API key\n4. Send the key in the `Api-Key` header. The `api_key` query parameter is deprecated\n5. Bulk lookup takes 1 to 100 queries and needs a webhook. Results arrive at the webhook, signed in `X-RocketReach-Signature`\n6. Do not loop on `unknown` from `email_verify`, or on `lookup_failed` and `not_found`. The last two are terminal\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Enrich Layer API + MCP or RocketReach API?\n\nEnrich Layer API + MCP scores 55.8 (C) on agent readiness against RocketReach API's 51.2 (D), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. RocketReach API leads on maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do Enrich Layer API + MCP and RocketReach API need an API key?\n\nEnrich Layer API + MCP needs an API key. RocketReach API takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Enrich Layer API + MCP and RocketReach API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Enrich Layer API + MCP has a hosted endpoint at https://enrichlayer.com/api/v2 and RocketReach API at https://api.rocketreach.co/api/v2.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/enrich-layer-vs-rocketreach.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/enrich-layer-vs-rocketreach.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"enrich-layer\", \"b\": \"rocketreach\"}`.
