Which enrichment is more accurate when finding work emails -> (1) work email which only requires full name and company domain or (2) work email (enterprise) which requires the same and linkedin profile?

Generally, using full name, company domain, and LinkedIn profile is more accurate for finding work emails. This method provides more data points, increasing the chances of finding the correct email. Our Find Work Email action allows you to input: 1. Full Name 2. Company Domain (optional) 3. Social Profile URL (optional, including LinkedIn) Including the LinkedIn profile URL can significantly improve accuracy, as it provides additional verification of the person's identity and current employment. We use a waterfall enrichment process, which tries multiple providers to maximize data coverage. The primary input required is the Company Domain, but ideally, you should also include Personal Social Profile URLs for best results. Remember, we offer various data providers for finding work emails, each with its own strengths. You can customize the order of these providers in your enrichment waterfall for optimal results.
