Opening profiles
Know what is free, what opening a profile draws on and what the free plan shows.
Updated 23 September 2026
- Why
- Planning who to look at should never cost anything; reading the evidence is the part worth paying for.
- How
- Press Open profile on a company page; everything you open stays open to you.
Open a profile
- Step 1.
Choose a company in
/app/inspectto reach its page. The panel What is behind this profile says what opening it reveals. - Step 2.
Press Open profile. The four tabs appear, and the Contacts tab can now find people through a connected contact finder.
What it draws on
- Opening a company draws on the month's usage about as much as one AI answer.
- A profile you have opened stays open to you for good, so reading it again never draws anything.
- The map, the list, the filters, search, your lists and the planner never draw on anything.
When the month's usage is spent, no new profile opens. The region, your lists and every profile you have already opened carry on, and opening resumes on your billing date or on a larger plan.
On the free plan
Inspect is on every plan. On the free plan the workbench is a preview: the header reads Preview. Opening a company needs a paid plan. with a link to See plans. The free plan's monthly profile cap is zero; it is a cap on use, not a gate on the product.
Opening is always a deliberate press. Hovering over a list or a link never opens a profile or draws on your usage.
