PlaylistLookup vs PlaylistSupply
PlaylistSupply is a genuine option for playlist promotion. A subscription playlist data tool: search by artist, genre or keyword, get curator contacts, and pitch curators yourself. PlaylistLookup takes a different approach: a directory of curator contacts you reach yourself, with public emails checked for deliverability and the whole database refreshed daily.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does PlaylistLookup keep contacts accurate?
Two ways. The database syncs with Spotify every day, so playlists that go quiet or change hands do not sit around as dead leads. And every public email address runs through deliverability verification before you see it, so you are not pitching inboxes that bounce.
Does PlaylistLookup check playlists for bots?
That is not our focus. PlaylistSupply's PlaylistVet is built for bot detection on playlists. We put our effort into contact accuracy: fresh data and checked emails. Plenty of artists use a bot-checker alongside us.
Can I try PlaylistLookup before paying?
Yes. There is a free tier with a limited number of searches, so you can see the data quality before you pick a plan.
