At a glance
Here is where 1Lookup wins against Context.dev, and where Context.dev still wins.
Both return a company's brand from its domain. Context.dev is a web data platform: one credit balance pays for scraping pages, crawling a site, mapping its URLs, searching the web and news, extracting a styleguide and searching companies and people, and its brand call returns a company profile and the website's design system, with subdomains supported. 1Lookup is the narrower product: it reads the company's own site when you ask and returns the name, every logo file with its type and size, colors ranked by use, fonts, social profiles for seven networks and a description, at a flat credit price on a balance that also pays for phone, email and IP checks.
- A lower price per brand than Context.dev's Developer plan: $9.90 per 1,000 on Starter against $20.00, from a balance that covers 10,000 brand lookups a month
- Nothing is billed when a site has no name or logo to read, is not in DNS or cannot be reached
- The site is read when you ask and remembered for 7 days, where Context.dev may reuse stored brand data for about 90 days by default
- A CSV with a domain column turns a list of companies into a spreadsheet of brand kits, on the same balance that pays for phone, email and IP checks
What it costs
From $4.00
per 1,000 brand lookups; $9.90 on Starter
- A lower price per brand call as the plans grow: Retrieve Brand is 10 credits, which the printed plans price from $0.020 a call on Developer down to $0.0038 on the 2.5M-credit plan.
- One credit balance for a wide web toolkit: scrape pages (from 1 credit), crawl a site, map its URLs, search the web and news, answer questions from the web, monitor pages for changes, extract a styleguide (10 credits) and search companies (2 credits) and people (10 credits).
- The brand call returns a company profile and the website's design system, and the page says subdomains are fully supported.
- SOC 2 Type 2 compliant, with SSO, SAML and SCIM, a 99.9% uptime SLA, annual invoicing and a dedicated Slack channel on Enterprise.
- SDKs, a CLI and an MCP server, and 30% off an annual paid plan for 12 months for eligible startups and nonprofits.
What it costs
$20 a month for 10,000 credits, which is 1,000 Retrieve Brand calls at 10 credits each (monthly billing)
Short answer
Context.dev sells credits on monthly plans, and a Retrieve Brand call costs 10 credits: the Developer plan is $20 a month for 10,000 credits, which is 1,000 brand calls, and the 100,000-credit Pro plan is $90. Brand.dev's pricing page leads to the same plans. 1Lookup's Brand Lookup costs 2 credits per brand found, about $0.010 on Starter, and nothing when the site has no name or logo to read.
What replaces what
Here is which 1Lookup product matches each Context.dev job.
Context.dev prices a Retrieve Brand call at 10 credits, so a plan covers a tenth as many brand calls as it has credits. This is the same unit on 1Lookup, one domain turned into a brand kit, billed at a flat credit price and only when a company name or a logo is found.
Side by side
Both products are measured on the same criteria, using Context.dev's own published numbers.
| Criteria | ||

Overage is $3.00 per 1,000 credits on Developer and $2.00 per 1,000 on the Pro plans; the Free tier has none. Brand.dev's pricing page redirects here. |

A real result
This is what one 1Lookup result looks like.
Send a domain
POST a domain, a web address or an email address. It is cut down to the site's host name. An IP address, a single word or a bare public suffix is refused with a clear error and costs nothing.
We read the site's own pages
1Lookup opens the home page, the web app manifest and the first two stylesheets, the same files a visitor's browser loads, with at most four requests and 8 seconds in all. A private or internal address is never connected to.
Get the kit, flat and structured
The name, the best logo, the colors, the fonts and the social profiles arrive in one JSON payload. A brand that is found bills 2 credits, and a site with no name or logo to read bills nothing.

The evidence
Here is the evidence behind every number on this page.
Here are Context.dev and 1Lookup side by side on the terms you check before you sign.
The terms that decide what a year actually costs, rather than what the first month does. “Not listed” means we could not verify it on either product’s published pages, not that the answer is nothing.

| API access | Included on every plan and during the free trial; there is no tier that unlocks it | The API, SDKs, CLI and MCP server are on every plan, including Free. |
| Rate limit | 200 requests per 10 seconds for each API key on standard lookups and 1,000 requests a minute for each key on number type, HLR and MNP, and each account can make up to 1,000 requests a minute in total across all its keys; higher limits are available on request | Concurrent requests per organization: Free 2, Developer 10, Pro 100, Growth 250, Scale 500; plans have no per-minute cap by default. |

This is the Context.dev fine print worth reading twice.
Published terms that change what Context.dev costs or what you can do with it. Each one links to the Context.dev page it was read on, because a claim about somebody else’s contract should be checkable in one click.
A Retrieve Brand call is 10 credits, ten times the 1 credit a standard scrape uses.

Who it is for
Pick 1Lookup or stay with Context.dev depending on the job in front of you.
Choose 1Lookup if
you want the brand kit as a single flat lookup that is free on a miss, on one credit balance with your phone, email and company checks, and you upload a CSV of domains instead of writing a script.
Consider Context.dev instead if
you scrape, crawl and search the web as well as read brands, want that on one credit balance, need SOC 2 Type 2 and a 99.9% uptime SLA, or run volumes where its printed plans put a brand call under half a cent.
Questions
People ask these questions before they switch from Context.dev.
What is Context.dev used for?
Turning the web into data for software and AI agents. One Context.dev credit balance pays for scraping pages from 1 credit, crawling a site, mapping its URLs, searching the web and news, answering questions from the web, monitoring pages for changes, extracting a styleguide and searching companies and people, and its Retrieve Brand call returns a company profile and the website's design system from a domain.
Is Brand.dev the same as Context.dev?
Yes. Brand.dev's pricing page redirects to Context.dev's pricing page, so the plans, the credit prices and the Retrieve Brand call are the ones listed here.
How does Context.dev pricing work?
Monthly credit plans shared by every API: Free (1,000 credits), Developer $20 (10,000), Pro $90 (100,000), Growth $300 (500,000), Scale $500 (1,000,000) and a 2.5M-credit plan at $950, with two months free on yearly billing. A Retrieve Brand call is 10 credits. Overage is $3.00 per 1,000 credits on Developer and $2.00 per 1,000 on the Pro plans, and the Free tier has none. Checked October 2026.
How much does 1Lookup charge for the same lookup?
2 credits per brand found, free when the site is unreachable or has no name or logo to read. On the Starter plan ($99 a month for 20,000 credits) a brand is about $0.010, which covers 10,000 brand lookups a month and is $9.90 per 1,000. At the Enterprise end of the rate card it is about $0.004.
Is 1Lookup cheaper than Context.dev per brand?
It depends on the volume. At 1,000 brand calls a month Context.dev's Developer plan is $20, which is $20.00 per 1,000, against $9.90 on 1Lookup Starter. At 10,000 calls Context.dev's Pro plan is $90, which is $9.00 per 1,000, about $9 less than a month of Starter, and at 100,000 calls its Scale plan is $500 against 200,000 credits on 1Lookup, which fits the $799 Professional plan. Context.dev's price falls as its plans grow to $3.80 per 1,000 at 250,000 calls.
What does Context.dev return, and what does 1Lookup add?
Context.dev's Retrieve Brand call returns a company profile and the website's design system, and its credit balance also pays for the rest of its web toolkit. 1Lookup returns the kit as the site publishes it: alternate names, every logo file with its purpose, type and size, colors with where each was found and how often a stylesheet uses it, fonts with their source, a profile address and handle for seven networks and a description, on the same balance as phone, email and IP checks. A CSV with a domain column runs a whole list in one job.
Where does Context.dev beat 1Lookup?
On price at volume and on breadth. From its 10,000-call Pro plan Context.dev's brand call is cheaper than 1Lookup Starter, and it falls to $3.80 per 1,000 on the 2.5M-credit plan. One balance also covers scraping, crawling, web search and company and people search, it has SDKs, a CLI and an MCP server, it is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant with a 99.9% uptime SLA on Enterprise, and eligible startups and nonprofits get 30% off an annual plan for 12 months. 1Lookup does only the brand kit.
How fresh is the brand data on each side?
Context.dev's Retrieve Brand may reuse stored data up to its maxAgeMs, which defaults to about 90 days, and a value of 0 asks for a fresh retrieval. 1Lookup reads the site when you ask, shows the day it was read in checked_at and remembers a result for 7 days, and bypass_cache: true reads the site again.
What is the best Context.dev alternative?
If you need scraping, crawling and web search on one balance, or a brand call at the lowest price at high volume, Context.dev is the broader product. If what you want is the brand kit of a domain at a flat credit price, billed only when a name or logo is found, on a balance that also covers phone, email and IP checks, 1Lookup's Brand Lookup bills 2 credits for every brand found.
Is Context.dev worth it in 2026?
Yes, if you want one platform for web data: the credit balance stretches over many APIs, and the brand call gets cheaper as the plans grow. Plan for the 10 credits a brand call uses and for the monthly plan size. If you read a few hundred to a few thousand brands a month, compare the per-brand price of 1Lookup.
