ELDB vs Storeleads
Storeleads alternative for French online stores
ELDB (Ecommerce Leads Database) is a database of 95K+ verified French online stores, available through a REST API and an MCP server from €49/month excl. VAT. Storeleads API access starts at $250/month, on its Pro plan. The limit of ELDB: it only covers France (.fr).
The problem: paying for a worldwide database to reach French stores
You prospect French online stores. Storeleads covers the whole world.
Its Premium plan at $75/month has no API and no CSV export. To plug the data into a tool or an AI agent, you need the Pro plan at $250/month.
You then pay for access to 13,825,170 stores worldwide, while your target is in France.
