Saleshunt vs Sales Navigator
Sales Navigator and Saleshunt both help you find companies to sell to and the people to talk to there. Sales Navigator searches LinkedIn's own profiles with filters and helps you reach people inside LinkedIn. Saleshunt checks every company in your market against the question you ask. This page puts them side by side.
We make Saleshunt, so we've kept to facts either side could check. Sales Navigator's details come from LinkedIn's plan page, checked on 28 October 2026. Spotted something out of date? Tell us at support@saleshunt.ai and we'll fix it.

Filters, or your own question
Sales Navigator
You search LinkedIn with more than 50 filters: job title, seniority, company size, industry, geography and more. It's fast for anything a profile states, and Account IQ and Lead IQ summarise an account or a person with AI.
Saleshunt
You ask in your own words, for example: food producers that make burgers or sausages from beef. Every company is checked against each part of the question, and the best matches come back. Near-misses are checked too, but they don't crowd your list.
Where the data comes from
Sales Navigator
LinkedIn's own profiles of people and companies. That's its strength: profiles people keep up to date themselves. A company is only as visible as its LinkedIn page.
Saleshunt
Google Maps, company websites and LinkedIn, combined and checked when you ask. Every answer shows its source, and when something can't be confirmed the cell says so.
Big markets, or small and local ones
Sales Navigator
Strongest where companies and their people are active on LinkedIn. How far that reaches depends on your market, so test it on a sample of your own.
Saleshunt
Built in Europe, for European markets. Websites are read in their own language, and the local firm with a Google Maps listing and a two-person LinkedIn page gets looked at too.
Reaching the right person
Sales Navigator
You reach people inside LinkedIn: 50 InMails a month on every plan, connection requests, TeamLink introductions through colleagues, and Message Assist to draft with AI.
Saleshunt
It finds the decision-maker at each company when you ask and checks on LinkedIn that they still work there, with a verified email. On Pro, campaigns send from your own mailbox, and nothing goes out until you approve it.
Watching your market
Sales Navigator
Alerts on job changes and new content, buyer intent on who shows interest in your company, and Relationship Explorer for mutual connections.
Saleshunt
Signals you describe in plain language, for example a company starting to fit your criteria. Included on Pro during launch, or €0.05 per signal check on pay as you go.
CRM and team
Sales Navigator
Team seat management on Advanced. CRM sync with Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics and others on Advanced Plus.
Saleshunt
Import and export your lists. Custom integrations on Enterprise. No seats, so the whole team can use the same balance.
Pricing
Sales Navigator
Per seat. Core from €120.99 a month or €1,088.88 a year, Advanced from €148.21 a month or €1,693.88 a year, and Advanced Plus on quote. LinkedIn notes prices can exclude VAT and change. See LinkedIn's plan page for current prices.
Saleshunt
No seats. Pay per result from a prepaid balance that never expires: €0.15 for each company that matches your criteria, or €0.34 for a full contact with the decision-maker and a verified email. Or Pro at €99 a month with 150 included. See pricing.
Which one fits you
Sales Navigator is likely the better fit if
- your buyers are active on LinkedIn and fit its filters
- you sell by building relationships there, with InMail and introductions
- you want alerts when the people you follow change jobs
- you need CRM sync with Salesforce, HubSpot or Dynamics
Saleshunt is likely the better fit if
- what makes a company a fit isn't on its LinkedIn page
- you sell into European markets with many small, local companies
- you'd rather pay per match than per seat
- you want an email address and a draft you approve, outside LinkedIn
They also work together: Saleshunt to find and check the companies that fit, Sales Navigator to build the relationship on LinkedIn afterwards.

Frequently asked questions
Is Saleshunt a Sales Navigator alternative?
For finding the companies that fit and the right person at each, yes, especially when what makes a company a fit isn't on its LinkedIn page. If you sell by building relationships on LinkedIn itself, with InMail and introductions, Sales Navigator does a different part of the job.
What does Sales Navigator cost?
LinkedIn lists Core from €120.99 a month per seat, or €1,088.88 a year, and Advanced from €148.21 a month, or €1,693.88 a year. Advanced Plus is priced on quote. Saleshunt has no seats: €0.15 for each company that matches your criteria, €0.34 for a full contact, or Pro at €99 a month.
Does Saleshunt use LinkedIn?
Yes, as one of three sources. Saleshunt combines Google Maps, company websites and LinkedIn, and checks on LinkedIn that the decision-maker it finds still works at the company.
How well does Sales Navigator cover small European companies?
It covers what's on LinkedIn, so it depends on how present your market is there. Test it on a sample of your own market. Saleshunt also looks at Google Maps and company websites, and when something can't be confirmed, it says so.
Can I use both?
Yes. Saleshunt to find and check every company in your market that fits your question, Sales Navigator to build the relationship on LinkedIn afterwards.
