The Org

The Org is a public organization-chart network with tools for sales and recruiting workflows. It suits teams that need role and reporting context alongside prospect data, particularly in LinkedIn, HubSpot, or Salesforce. The main trade-off is that useful team access and higher data allowances require paid seats.

Overview

The Org reports more than 1 million users and covers 850,000 organizations, 51 million positions, and 5 million changes per month. That scale makes it a substantial source for mapping decision-makers and following organizational movement. Its data comes from public internet pages and community contributors, including company team pages, news announcements, public LinkedIn profiles, and user-generated content, so it is best treated as prospecting context rather than an authoritative employee record.

The service was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in New York. Privacy controls let people join their company to edit position pages, report inaccurate information, or opt out of appearing. The Trust Center says security work is progressing toward ISO 27001/2 alignment and SOC 2 certification. Support is handled through The Org Support Center.

Key features

Charts for sales and recruiting

The Chrome and Microsoft Edge extension places a LinkedIn profile inside its organization chart and supplies contact information for chart positions. Sales teams can use that surrounding structure to identify relevant buyers, while recruiters can look for promising people who may be ready for another opportunity. The benefit is relationship and role context instead of an isolated contact; the limitation is that completeness and accuracy depend on public and community-contributed data.

CRM and browser workflows

Enrichment apps put organization charts directly into HubSpot contact and company records and Salesforce Account and Contact records. That is a practical fit for teams that already work in those systems and want company structure visible during account research. Teams using another CRM do not receive the same documented integration advantage.

Developer access

The developer platform documents an API, Zapier integrations, flat-file delivery, and embeddable organization charts. These options support automated enrichment, no-code workflows, data-file processes, or chart experiences inside another product. API access is available, but the plan and credit allowance still determine how much data a team can use.

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing, billed $0 billed yearly. It permits limited organization views, one seat per account, and 10 credits per seat/month; additional credits cost $0.05 each. This is suitable for an individual evaluating the directory or handling occasional lookups, not for sustained prospecting.

Basic costs $19.33 per user per month, billed $232 per seat billed yearly plus tax. It adds unlimited organization views, one seat, 12,000 credits per seat/year, $0.04 additional credits, and advanced people and jobs filtering. It is the economical choice for one heavy user, but the single-seat limit rules it out for shared team workflows.

Premium costs $32.67 per user per month, billed $392 per seat billed yearly plus tax. Accounts can have 1–10 seats, with 24,000 credits per seat/year and $0.03 additional credits. Advanced people and jobs filtering remain, while CSV and CRM contact export plus collaboration features make this the more credible plan for a small sales or recruiting team.

Enterprise uses custom pricing with a minimum 12-month commitment and supports 10 or more seats. Each seat receives 48,000 credits per year, additional credits cost $0.02, and the package adds research requests and account management. It fits larger programs that need volume and service support, but the annual commitment warrants a clear usage forecast. A 7-day trial is offered for paid evaluation.

Platforms

The Org is available on the web, through its API, and as a browser extension. The extension supports Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. This combination covers normal browser research, CRM or automation work, and developer-led integration.

Who it's for

Choose The Org when sales development depends on identifying buyers within complex organizations, or when recruiting teams need to understand where promising people sit in a company. Premium is the practical starting point for small groups needing exports, collaboration, and multiple seats; Basic suits a single researcher. The free plan is mainly an introductory option because its one-seat, limited-view, and low credit allowance constrain regular use.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Large stated coverage of organizations, positions, and monthly changes supports broad account mapping.
• Charts connect LinkedIn profiles with surrounding roles and contact information, giving prospecting useful organizational context.
• HubSpot, Salesforce, API, Zapier, flat-file, and embed options fit established sales and developer workflows.
• Premium adds exports and collaboration, while Enterprise adds research requests and account management.

Cons

• The free account is limited to one seat, limited organization views, and 10 credits per seat/month.
• Basic remains one seat, so team adoption begins at Premium pricing.
• Credit overages cost extra on every plan, making high-volume usage harder to budget.
• Public and community-sourced data can require correction and should not be assumed complete.
• Enterprise requires a minimum 12-month commitment and custom pricing.

Verdict

The Org is a strong choice for sales and recruiting teams that need public organization structure tied to people discovery, CRM records, or developer workflows. Its scale, chart-based context, and Premium integrations justify the cost for active prospecting programs. Look elsewhere if you need a low-cost multi-user chart maker, guaranteed authoritative personnel data, or an open-ended free plan.
